Is alphasofts.net legit or a scam?
Cracked software download site flagged by several malware engines and carrying an extremely low trust score.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.
Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The page presents itself as a download hub for pirated software including Adobe Premiere Pro, Avast, and IDM. Our antivirus network detected malicious activity from six engines including Fortinet and CyRadar. The site loads external domains known for suspicious activity and has been linked in reports to Vidar stealer and AutoIt malware. Domain age of roughly 1.8 years offers little reassurance when paired with the complete absence of legitimate business contact details. An independent review site assigns the domain a trust score of zero and warns about unlawful content. These combined signals lead us to classify the page as malicious.
