See the live page ↓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.

Visual analysis
We capture a fresh screenshot of the live page and ask a vision model to look for scam visual patterns — fake trust badges, countdown timers, overlay pop-ups, and visual clones of legitimate brands.
Visual red flags detected in the screenshot
The site appears to be a manga aggregation platform. While it contains an advertisement formatted to look like a content entry, it does not exhibit standard patterns of a high-risk scam or phishing site.
What our vision model saw
4 signalsProminent notice advising users to bookmark the site due to search engine visibility issues
Presence of an advertisement disguised as a comic series entry in the 'Most Recent Popular' section
Site functions as a content aggregator for manga and comics
No immediate indicators of phishing or credential harvesting
Intelligence
The site presents itself as a manga aggregator but is explicitly identified as a clone of the now-defunct comick.io. Three separate sources, including Reddit users and GitHub maintainers, report that comick.live steals account credentials and locks users into the platform. Gridinsoft assigns it a 30/100 trust score and notes multiple security vendors blacklist the domain. The .live TLD is over-represented in scam infrastructure, and the domain shows no legitimate business registration. These signals together establish clear malicious intent rather than a benign mirror or fan site.

Safety FAQ
Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.
- comick.live is a high-risk scam site — avoid interacting with it. Our review tagged it for clone site and data harvester. 1 of 92 security engines flag it. This pattern matches throwaway sites built to take money or data and disappear.
- No — comick.live scored just 6/100 on our trust scale, and we detected active threat indicators. We recommend avoiding it entirely: don't log in, pay, download anything, or connect a wallet.
- If you've already paid or handed over details on comick.live, act quickly. 1) Contact your bank or card issuer immediately and ask to dispute the charge or open a chargeback — the sooner you act, the better your odds. 2) Report the site to the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov or the FBI's IC3 at ic3.gov, and in the UK to Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. 3) If you entered a password, change it on comick.live and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. 4) Watch your bank and email for follow-up fraud, and keep screenshots as evidence.
- Often yes, if you act fast. Payments made by credit or debit card can frequently be reversed through a chargeback or dispute — contact your bank right away and explain it was a fraudulent site. Bank transfers and gift-card or voucher payments are much harder to recover, but you should still report them to your bank and to the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov) or Action Fraud (actionfraud.police.uk). Avoid any "refund" or "recovery" service that contacts you first — it's usually a follow-up scam.
- Just viewing a scam page is usually low-risk on an up-to-date browser — the real danger is what it asks you to DO (enter details, download a file, send money). If you downloaded anything, run a full antivirus scan and treat the file as untrusted. If you entered a password or card number, change the password everywhere you reused it and contact your bank.
- You can report comick.live through several official channels: the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at ic3.gov, and — in the UK — Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. You can also flag it to Google Safe Browsing (safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish) so other browsers warn about it, and report it to the company being impersonated if there is one. Reporting helps get scam sites taken down faster.
- Modern scams are built to look convincing. A valid SSL padlock, a polished template, stock photos, fake reviews, and a trust badge can all be added in minutes and prove nothing about who runs the site. Scammers buy cheap domains, clone real designs, and copy legal pages wholesale. That's exactly why an automated review that checks the domain's age, hosting, blacklists, and behaviour — rather than just how the page looks — is more reliable than a first impression.
- Yes. 1 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged comick.live as suspicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
- No — comick.live is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.
- comick.live resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. in US (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
- This report is a record of the scan run on July 26, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about comick.live has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
