Automated page render — captured in a safe sandbox. What an ordinary visitor would see when loading the site.
Visual analysis

Intelligence
The domain registered in 1996 shows a 29.8-year history and belongs to a real company. Zero of 92 antivirus engines flagged the page, the hosting IP carries no abuse reports, and the SSL certificate is valid. The page content matches Vimeo's official marketing copy and the visual analysis confirms the legitimate homepage. Evidence shows the site was acquired by Vimeo in 2017 and is being discontinued as a standalone service, with users directed to the main Vimeo platform. One customer complaint about cancellation appears on a review site, but this reflects normal service friction rather than fraud.

"Customer Service Stinks! ... The cancel button would only let me cancel the renewal for the next year, and not my current subscription that was only one day old."
- Capterraopen

Technical Details
domain · encryption · redirects · server reputation · referencedThe 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.

What to do
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 livestream.com and not a lookalike like l-ivestream.com.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.
- OpenDiscuss this site on the forum
If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.
Final Verdict
Livestream.com redirects to the official Vimeo video platform. The domain is 29.8 years old with clean scans and no malicious detections.
Safety FAQ
Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.
- Our automated security review found no threat indicators on livestream.com, so it appears legitimate. All 92 antivirus engines we queried report it clean, and the domain is 29.8 years old, registered on September 19, 1996 — 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.
- livestream.com passed our automated checks with a trust score of 92/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged it at the time of the last scan, and its signals line up with an established, legitimate site. Treat any unexpected login prompt or payment request on it with the same caution you would anywhere.
- Yes — and this is worth understanding. Even trustworthy domains get spoofed in phishing emails (a fake message that only looks like it's from livestream.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 livestream.com is genuine. Always reach the site by typing the address yourself rather than clicking links in unexpected messages.
- No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report livestream.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.
- No — livestream.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.
- livestream.com is 29.8 years old, registered on September 19, 1996 through MarkMonitor Inc.. 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.
- Yes — livestream.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, valid for another 18 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".
- livestream.com 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 14, 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 livestream.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
