Is net52.cc legit or a scam?
Piracy streaming site distributing unauthorized APK downloads; flagged as malicious by independent reviewers and linked to malware-distribution network.
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
net52.cc operates as part of the NetMirror piracy ecosystem, cycling through rapidly-changing domains (net22.cc, net20.cc, netmirror.gg) to evade takedowns. The site aggregates unauthorized streams from 50+ OTT platforms (Netflix, Prime, Disney+) and directs users to download APKs that require enabling unknown-source installation — a common malware-distribution vector. Independent review aggregators assign it a 20.8/100 trust score and flag it as unsafe; Reddit users report it as a replacement domain when prior NetMirror sites are shut down. A sibling domain (net22.cc) was confirmed malicious by sandbox analysis. The domain is 184 days old, privacy-protected via an Icelandic privacy service, and shows no legitimate business registration. While our antivirus network has not yet flagged the page itself, the infrastructure, business model, and linked-domain history all point to active malware distribution.
