Investigation Brief

Flashscore.com is a long-established sports results platform showing live scores for football, tennis, basketball and other leagues. The page displays standard sports content plus prominent betting advertisements and multiple responsible-gambling disclaimers. VirusTotal, Google Safe Browsing and TLS checks all return clean; domain registered in 2002. No credential harvesting, malware or deceptive redirects observed.

What the site provides

Flashscore.com aggregates live scores, results and standings from over 1000 football leagues plus tennis, basketball, hockey and more. Navigation includes Favorites, Scores and News tabs with sport-specific sections.

Decisive safety evidence

VirusTotal reports 0 malicious detections out of 92 engines. Google Safe Browsing status is clean. TLS certificate is valid and issued by Let's Encrypt. Domain age exceeds 8700 days. Page contains only standard advertising banners and responsible-gambling links in multiple languages.

Practical user impact

Users receive accurate sports data but will encounter betting ads. No technical threats detected; any ad-related pop-ups are typical of the category and not site-initiated malware.

Why the score is 92

The saved analysis does not include enough completed checks for a Safe rating. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.

06 · Your Next Move

Your next move

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on flashscore.com and not a lookalike like f-lashscore.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

08 · Safety FAQ

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers reflect the saved verdict and evidence in this report.

Is flashscore.com legit and safe?
Our automated security review found no threat indicators on flashscore.com, so it appears legitimate. All 92 antivirus engines we queried report it clean, it ranks among the world's most-visited sites, and the domain is 23.9 years old, registered on September 1, 2002 — established domains are far less likely to be scams. Even so, always double-check the exact address in your browser, because phishing emails routinely spoof real, trusted domains like this one.
Is flashscore.com safe to use?
flashscore.com has a Safety Score of 92/100 (Safe). Fresh core checks and semantic analysis found no material threat at scan time. Treat unexpected login or payment requests with normal caution.
Could a legitimate site like flashscore.com still be used in a scam?
Yes — and this is worth understanding. Even trustworthy domains get spoofed in phishing emails (a fake message that only looks like it's from flashscore.com), and legitimate sites are occasionally compromised on specific pages. A clean verdict means the site itself checks out today; it does not mean every email or link claiming to be from flashscore.com is genuine. Always reach the site by typing the address yourself rather than clicking links in unexpected messages.
Has flashscore.com been flagged by antivirus engines?
No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report flashscore.com as clean. That's a good sign, though antivirus coverage is only one of the many signals we weigh, and brand-new scam sites can appear clean before vendors catch up.
Is flashscore.com on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — flashscore.com 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.
How old is the flashscore.com domain?
flashscore.com is 23.9 years old, registered on September 1, 2002 through Gransy, s.r.o.. A multi-year registration history is one of the stronger signals against a scam, though it's never a guarantee on its own — established domains can still be misused.
Does flashscore.com have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — flashscore.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YR2, valid for another 76 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".
Where is flashscore.com hosted?
flashscore.com resolves to an IP operated by Google LLC 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.
Is flashscore.com a well-known website?
Yes — flashscore.com ranks in the global top 100,000 most-visited sites, which means it has substantial real-world traffic. Genuine popularity doesn't automatically make a site safe, but throwaway scam domains almost never reach this level of traffic, so it's a meaningful point in the site's favour.
How often is the flashscore.com report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on July 30, 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 flashscore.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
