01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

ProtonMovies.online is a streaming-piracy site offering 480p-4K Bollywood, Hollywood, and dubbed movies. The page loads a movie detail view on m.protonmovies.space and triggers a popup to so-gr3at3.com on interaction. No credential forms or downloads were observed. the antivirus scan reports 0 malicious detections out of 92 engines. The domain is 1036 days old and hosted on Cloudflare with clean IP reputation.

What the site appears to do

The site indexes and links to pirated movie and series files in multiple resolutions and languages. Navigation includes category, genre, OTT platform, quality, and audio filters. A search bar and request-movie form are present.

Strongest evidence and limitations

Browser behavior recorded an automatic redirect from protonmovies.online to m.protonmovies.space and an interaction-triggered popup to so-gr3at3.com. No file download completed and no credential-harvest forms were captured. Page text lists phone numbers but no verified contact email.

Practical user impact

Visitors face repeated ad pop-ups and cross-domain redirects. Copyright-infringing content exposes users to legal risk. No evidence of malware delivery or direct financial scams was recorded in the captured session.

Why the score is 52

The page automatically sent the browser to an unrelated external site. 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.

protonmovies.online is an established domain now carrying threat signals. An older domain that starts tripping security checks is a classic pattern for an asset that was sold, repurposed, or compromised — the age alone is not reassurance.

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 protonmovies.online a scam or is it safe?
There isn't enough evidence yet for us to give protonmovies.online a confident verdict, so treat it with caution. The domain is 2.8 years old. Until it can be independently verified, don't enter passwords, card details, or send money, and confirm the company through channels you find yourself rather than links on the site.
Is protonmovies.online safe to use?
protonmovies.online has a Safety Score of 52/100 (Moderate Risk). Analysis coverage is strong at 75%. Do not trust blindly; analysis may be limited.
Has protonmovies.online been flagged by antivirus engines?
No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report protonmovies.online 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 protonmovies.online on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — protonmovies.online 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 protonmovies.online domain?
protonmovies.online is 2.8 years old, registered on October 1, 2023 through NameSilo, LLC. 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 protonmovies.online have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — protonmovies.online presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, valid for another 57 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 protonmovies.online hosted?
protonmovies.online 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 protonmovies.online report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on August 3, 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 protonmovies.online has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
