The domain tmodloader.download is currently under investigation for brand impersonation, posing as the official tModLoader website for Terraria modding tools. The domain remains active and is not yet flagged by any of the 95 vendors on VirusTotal.
Infrastructure analysis reveals that tmodloader.download was registered on November 25, 2025, through the registrar Spaceship, Inc. The domain resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3. The page title, 'tModLoader - Official Terraria Modding Tool | Download Free | 15,000+ Mods Available,' suggests an attempt to impersonate the legitimate tModLoader website, which could mislead users into downloading malicious software or providing sensitive information.
Given the current status of the domain, it is recommended that users exercise caution when visiting tmodloader.download and verify the authenticity of the website through official channels. Security teams should monitor the domain for any changes in behavior and consider adding it to blocklists if further evidence of malicious activity is discovered. Continued investigation is necessary to determine the full scope of the threat and to identify any associated infrastructure.

For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
