Is streamtape.com legit or a scam?
Video hosting site with clean technical scans but multiple independent review aggregator scam accusations and a Malwarebytes block for phishing abuse.
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 site presents itself as a legitimate video sharing service with features like unlimited storage and an API. The strongest negative signal is the combination of 18 complaints and four explicit scam reports on independent review aggregator describing popups and unwanted redirects. Malwarebytes ThreatDown also flags the domain for hosting content abused by threat actors in phishing schemes. Counterbalancing this, the domain is over six years old, carries no antivirus detections, and receives high traffic estimates around 29 million visits. The mixed reputation from independent review sites leaves the overall risk moderate rather than outright malicious.
