MT Intelligence
This site operates as part of the well-documented 9xMovies piracy network, offering unlicensed Bollywood, Hollywood, and South Indian films for download. The page title and meta description explicitly market it as a 300MB movie download hub, and the body content lists hundreds of pirated titles across multiple resolutions. One antivirus engine flagged the domain as malicious, and independent review aggregators assigned it a trust score of 9/100 with explicit warnings that the content is illegal and the site exhibits scam characteristics. The domain lacks any legitimate business registration, contact information, or positive user reviews. External domains loaded by the page include known ad-injection and tracking networks, typical of piracy sites monetised through intrusive advertising. The 745-day age suggests this is an established operation rather than a fresh phishing attempt, but longevity does not confer legitimacy—piracy networks often persist for years before takedown.
