Is live-tv.sbs a scam?

Our automated security review flags live-tv.sbs as dangerous. Multiple threat indicators were detected — treat the site as a scam until proven otherwise.

Is live-tv.sbs safe to use?

No — live-tv.sbs scored 1/100 on our trust scale. We detected active threat indicators, so we recommend avoiding the site entirely.

Does live-tv.sbs have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes. live-tv.sbs presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R13, expiring in 44 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.

How old is the live-tv.sbs domain?

live-tv.sbs is 7 months old, registered on 11/26/2025 through Ultahost, Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.

Has live-tv.sbs been flagged by antivirus engines?

14 out of 92 antivirus engines in our malware network flagged live-tv.sbs as malicious or suspicious (11 outright malicious). Even one detection is a meaningful signal.

Is live-tv.sbs on any phishing or malware blacklists?

No. live-tv.sbs is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.

Where is live-tv.sbs hosted?

live-tv.sbs resolves to an IP operated by Ultahost Inc in NL (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.

How often is the live-tv.sbs report updated?

This is a permanent record of the scan run on July 7, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around live-tv.sbs have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.

Confidence

Our analysis reveals a high-risk profile for this domain, primarily driven by a significant consensus among our antivirus partners. Eleven different security engines, including BitDefender, ESET, and Sophos, have flagged the site as malicious or a phishing threat. The domain is relatively new, registered only 222 days ago, and uses the .sbs top-level domain, which is frequently associated with low-quality or fraudulent streaming networks. While the page claims to offer free HD sports without registration, this is a common tactic used to expose users to aggressive ad-trackers, browser hijackers, or credential-harvesting scripts. The lack of any verifiable contact information or business registration further confirms its status as an untrustworthy operator. We have high confidence that this site poses a direct threat to user security.

Full dossier

Analysis complete

Page Content

The site presents itself as a comprehensive hub for free live sports, covering major leagues like the NBA, NFL, and F1. It explicitly markets 'no registration required' and 'no monthly fees' to lower the user's guard. However, the page contains zero legitimate contact details—no email, phone number, or physical address is provided. The site also loads resources from external domains like livetv.sx, which are known for hosting pirated content and aggressive advertising scripts that can lead to malicious redirects.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on IP 192.142.55.133, which currently shows a clean reputation but is part of a hosting block often used for short-lived streaming sites. It utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which provides encryption but does not verify the identity of the business behind the site. The presence of multiple external JavaScript libraries from Cloudflare and Google suggests a functional front-end, but these are often used to mask background scripts that track user behavior or deliver unwanted pop-ups.

Domain History

The domain live-tv.sbs was registered on November 26, 2025, making it approximately 222 days old. It was registered through Ultahost, Inc. and does not utilize WHOIS privacy protection, yet the registrant details do not point to a recognized media company. The use of the .sbs TLD is a notable risk factor, as these domains are inexpensive and heavily favored by operators of temporary scam or piracy networks. The site has no global traffic ranking, indicating it operates outside the mainstream web ecosystem.

Web Reputation

The reputation of this domain is severely compromised by the findings of our antivirus network. A total of 11 engines have issued 'malicious' or 'phishing' warnings, with major providers like BitDefender and ESET specifically identifying it as a threat. These detections typically occur when a site is caught hosting deceptive forms or serving scripts that attempt to exploit browser vulnerabilities. There are no positive signals from independent trust aggregators to counter these findings.

What this means for you

Interacting with this site puts your device and personal data at significant risk. Sites like this often use 'hidden' overlays that trigger malware downloads or redirect you to phishing pages when you try to click the 'play' button. We strongly advise against visiting this domain or entering any information if prompted. Use legitimate, licensed streaming services to ensure your digital safety.
