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.

Confidence
The site operates in the high-risk niche of illegal movie streaming, which frequently serves as a vector for malicious ads and browser hijackers. Our antivirus network shows detections from CRDF, alphaMountain.ai, and Gridinsoft, all flagging the domain as malicious or suspicious. While the domain is over 900 days old, it provides no physical address, phone number, or official company registration. Independent review aggregators show a sharp divide, with some security researchers giving it a very low trust score due to phishing and malware proximity. The lack of any transparent ownership or support channels is a significant red flag for a site handling high traffic.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site presents a standard interface for a free streaming platform, promising HD and 4K quality for the latest theatrical releases. It lacks any 'About Us' page, terms of service, or privacy policy that identifies a legal entity.

Infrastructure

The domain is hosted behind a common content delivery network, which hides the true origin server. While it uses a valid SSL certificate, this only secures the connection and does not verify the legitimacy of the content being streamed.

Domain History

Registered in December 2023, the domain has maintained a consistent presence for over two years. This longevity suggests it is a stable part of a streaming network rather than a 'pop-up' scam, though it remains unindexed in major global traffic rankings.

Web Reputation

Reputation is mixed; while some piracy communities list it as a functional resource, security-focused databases frequently blacklist it. The site triggers warnings for being a 'suspicious website' with trust scores as low as 11/100 on some analyst platforms.
Risk Factors
5
  • Multiple detections from CRDF and Gridinsoft flagging the site as malicious or suspicious.
  • Operates as an unlicensed streaming platform, a category frequently associated with 'malvertising'.
  • Complete absence of contact information, including email, phone, or physical address.
  • Very low trust scores (11.2/100) from independent security analysts citing malware proximity.
  • No verifiable business registration or corporate ownership data found.
Positive Signals
3
  • Domain has been active for over 900 days, indicating it is not a temporary 'burn' site.
  • Valid SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services.
  • No evidence of cloning or impersonating legitimate brands like Netflix or Disney+.
AI Recommendation
Avoid streaming content on this site as it likely distributes copyrighted material illegally and may expose your device to malicious advertisements. If you visit, ensure you have a robust ad-blocker and updated antivirus software active.

Proceed with caution

Our automated review flagged enough risk that you should treat this site as unverified.

  • Treat stcine.com as unverified

    Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.

  • Verify the business through independent channels

    Check the company's social profiles, registry records, and search for recent news or reviews that are not hosted on the site itself.

  • Never use irreversible payment methods

    Crypto, gift cards, wire transfers, and cash apps offer zero buyer protection. Use a credit card or PayPal if you must pay.

  • Share your experience

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review marked stcine.com as suspicious. Several warning signs were detected; it may still turn out legitimate, but you should verify it through independent channels before trusting it with money or credentials.
  • stcine.com currently scores 47/100 on our trust scale. We found enough warning signals to recommend caution. Verify the site through independent channels before entering credentials or money.
  • Yes. stcine.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, expiring in 76 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • stcine.com is 2.5 years old, registered on 12/4/2023 through Realtime Register B.V.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • 3 out of 92 antivirus engines in our malware network flagged stcine.com as malicious or suspicious (1 outright malicious). Even one detection is a meaningful signal.
  • No. stcine.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • stcine.com resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. in US (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 21, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around stcine.com have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
