Verdict

Freemake shows no current technical threat warning, but a billing complaint raises caution

The reviewed page identifies itself as Freemake Video Converter and says it is “Absolutely free” with “No trials or limitations.” Current checks found a valid encrypted connection and no malicious or suspicious detections. However, one customer review alleges that a low-cost trial was followed immediately by a lifetime-license charge without notice, while another criticizes automated-looking support responses. This supports a Low Risk score rather than a fully Safe rating, but the available evidence does not establish malware or a systematic subscription trap.

The page does not show evidence of an active malware or phishing threat, but review all payment and renewal terms before entering card details. Keep a copy of the checkout terms and monitor the card statement if purchasing a trial or license.

01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

The reviewed page identifies itself as Freemake Video Converter and says it is “Absolutely free” with “No trials or limitations.” Current checks found a valid encrypted connection and no malicious or suspicious detections. However, one customer review alleges that a low-cost trial was followed immediately by a lifetime-license charge without notice, while another criticizes automated-looking support responses. This supports a Low Risk score rather than a fully Safe rating, but the available evidence does not establish malware or a systematic subscription trap.

Technical checks are reassuring

The saved checks found a valid encrypted connection, no browsing-safety warning, and zero malicious or suspicious detections across 92 engines.

The registrable domain is more than 8,000 days old, which provides historical context but does not resolve questions about billing or customer service.

The main concern is the reported trial-to-license charge

The page visibly claims “Absolutely free. No trials or limitations,” but a customer review alleges that a 95-cent trial week was followed immediately by a lifetime-license charge without notification.

A separate review says service-desk answers appeared computerized. That is a customer-support concern, although this evidence alone does not prove that support is unavailable or that refunds are obstructed.

Why the score is 72

A customer review alleges an immediate lifetime-license charge after a low-cost trial week without notification. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

The behavior, reputation, and operator evidence that explains how this site may affect a visitor.
  1. What the site claims

    Independent evidence classifies the site as content, but the page's own claim could not be captured.

  2. What we observed

    The page itself could not be fully inspected, so the report relies on the other saved checks.

  3. What independent research found

    2 external findings were saved and compared with the page evidence.

  4. What remains unverified

    1 of the 4 applicable core capabilities did not complete, so those gaps remain visible in the coverage ledger.

06 · Your Next Move

Your next move

Verify before you trust

We couldn't gather enough signal for a confident verdict — tread carefully.

  1. Find the company through independent channels

    Search for the business on LinkedIn, an official registry (Companies House, OpenCorporates, SEC EDGAR), or via the brand's known social channels. If you can't trace a real entity, that itself is a red flag.

  2. Never pay by crypto, gift card, or bank transfer

    If the site forces an irreversible payment method, stop. Cards and PayPal give you chargeback protection — irreversible methods don't.

  3. Ask the forum

    Post the URL in the MalwareTips Scam Reports forum — experienced members often recognise patterns immediately.

07 · 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 m.freemake.com a scam or is it safe?
m.freemake.com has a Safety Score of 72/100 (Low Risk). The saved checks found no material threat, but the report did not meet every requirement for the highest Safe tier. Use normal caution and independently verify the operator before irreversible payments or unusually sensitive actions.
Is m.freemake.com safe to use?
m.freemake.com has a Safety Score of 72/100 (Low Risk). Analysis coverage is complete at 100%. Normal caution; verify sensitive actions.
Has m.freemake.com been flagged by antivirus engines?
No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report m.freemake.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 m.freemake.com on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — m.freemake.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 m.freemake.com domain?
m.freemake.com is 22.4 years old, registered on May 18, 2004 through Cloudflare, 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.
Does m.freemake.com have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — m.freemake.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, valid for another 75 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 m.freemake.com hosted?
m.freemake.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.
How often is the m.freemake.com report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on October 2, 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 m.freemake.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
