Is anon-ib.co legit or a scam?
A revival of the infamous Anon-IB revenge porn site, linked to illegal non-consensual imagery and previously shut down by Dutch police.
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.

MT Intelligence
Our analysis confirms this domain is a direct clone and revival of the original Anon-IB platform, which was seized by Dutch police in 2018. The site is historically associated with the distribution of non-consensual pornography and the stalking of victims. While our antivirus network shows no active malware, the site's purpose is inherently harmful and linked to criminal activity. Independent review aggregators maintain a low trust score due to the site's reputation for hosting illegal content. The domain uses privacy protection to hide its operators, a common tactic for sites evading legal oversight.
