Is crystaldiskinfo.cn legit or a scam?
Phishing clone of CrystalDiskInfo disk-utility software; flagged by six antivirus engines including BitDefender and CyRadar as phishing.
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
The page mimics the legitimate CrystalDiskInfo software by using the official product name and describing genuine features (S.M.A.R.T monitoring, temperature alerts, multi-language support). However, six antivirus engines—BitDefender, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, G-Data, SOCRadar, and Chong Lua Dao—independently flag it as phishing. The domain uses a .cn TLD (China) rather than the legitimate software's official channels, lacks verifiable business registration, and the WHOIS data is unavailable, which is typical of throwaway phishing infrastructure. The page redirects across two hops to external domains, a common credential-harvesting pattern. The combination of impersonation, antivirus consensus, and redirect behaviour indicates this is a phishing site designed to trick users into downloading malware or entering credentials.
