Understanding High IP Reputation Score

High IP Reputation Score is a security metric that determines the trustworthiness of a user’s connection. Expressed as a numerical rating from 0 to 100, this score assesses whether an IP address belongs to a legitimate user or is associated with high-risk activities such as bot traffic, fraud, or malicious intent.


How Does It Work?

Our system integrates with Scamalytics, a premier fraud-detection engine that analyzes IP addresses against a global database of known threats and connection types.

Key Detection Factors

  • ISP Reputation: Checks if the Internet Service Provider hosts high volumes of spam or bot traffic

  • Historical Abuse: Scans for previous reports of hacking, brute-force attacks, or fraudulent transactions associated with that IP

  • Geolocation: Flags discrepancies between reported and actual connection locations

By monitoring these scores, we automatically block malicious actors before they cause damage.


When to Use High IP Reputation?

High IP Reputation Score proxies offer pristine usage history that withstands aggressive fraud checks, providing an additional layer of trust for mission-critical operations.

Best use cases

  • Web Scraping & Data Collection: Extract data from complex websites without CAPTCHAs or blocks that plague low-trust IPs

  • Social Media Management: Manage multiple accounts safely without triggering bans or phone verification challenges

  • Market Research & Price Intelligence: Access genuine competitor pricing without being blocked or presented with inaccurate data


How to Add High IP Reputation to Your Plan?

Adding the High IP Reputation feature to your proxy plan is straightforward:

  1. Visit the Plans & Pricing page.

  2. Scroll down to the Unlock Pro Capabilities section.

  3. Check the High IP Reputation box to enable this feature for your plan.

  4. Review the pricing. The feature cost will be added to your monthly total.

  5. Proceed with checkout to activate your plan with high IP reputation scores.

Once enabled, all proxies in your plan will have 0% fraud scores.


Verifying Fraud Scores & Troubleshooting

We recommend checking your proxy fraud scores directly on Scamalytics.com. Because our High IP Reputation feature is directly integrated with their database, checking your assigned IPs on Scamalytics gives you the most accurate, real-time reflection of your proxy’s score.

What if the fraud score is higher than 0%?

If you notice an IP with a fraud score above 0%, you can set up automatic replacements so higher-fraud IPs are replaced automatically, without using up your manual proxy replacements.

Steps to enable auto-replace:

  1. Go to the Proxy Settings page on your account.

  2. Navigate to the Replace Proxies tab.

  3. In the Auto-replace when section, select the checkbox next to Proxy no longer has High IP Reputation.

  4. Click Save Changes.
