Is skipthegames.com legit or a scam?
11-year-old adult services site with clean technical scans but 158 complaints about account deactivation, hacks, and refunds.
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.
Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The domain is over 11 years old with valid SSL and a clean IP reputation, which are positive longevity signals. However, consumer review sites show 158 reviews averaging just 2.5 stars with repeated reports of account deactivation, verification delays, and identity theft concerns. The site itself publishes warnings about fake listings and copycat domains, indicating ongoing scam activity around the service. Visual analysis shows only a standard security notice with no phishing or malware indicators. These mixed signals of age versus widespread user complaints lower our overall trust assessment.
