Verifying against the live site and live WHOIS/DNS…
Common questions
Is mcse.hu legit or a scam?
AboutUs doesn't label sites "legit" or "a scam": this page lists the dated registration, DNS, HTTPS, mail-authentication and safety checks we could verify, each with its source, so you can decide for yourself.
Who owns mcse.hu?
Nobody has completed AboutUs's owner verification for mcse.hu. That's true of most sites here — it isn't itself a warning sign.

HTTPS request succeeded for www.mcse.hu.

The site names Magyar Csillagászati Egyesület as the organisation behind it.
checked Oct 3, 2026
The live front page reads as a non-profit, association or religious site that is funded by donations or members, mainly for specialists in its field.
We withhold an authority number until independent evidence (global rank, link-graph presence) has accrued. The facts we do have about this site are shown below — we'd rather say “not enough signals yet” than invent a low score.
Safety evidence
No unexpired threat-feed result; name-similarity check available (recorded about 57 days ago); 3/3 transport and email checks available (oldest recorded about 57 days ago). This is evidence coverage, not a probability that a website is safe.
No caution flags in the available scoring observations; this is not a complete safety assessment
