Investigation Brief

strikeout.im is a free aggregator offering links to NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, UFC and other sports streams. It explicitly disclaims hosting content and points users to external providers. Moderate risk stems from piracy operation plus third-party ad domains; no fresh malware or phishing confirmed.

What the site does

Displays categorized sports links (Football/NFL, Basketball, UFC, etc.) with a team search bar and live clock. Redirects HTTP to HTTPS and loads external stream pages.

Strongest evidence

Page text states videos are hosted externally and includes DMCA/privacy links. VT shows stale malicious flags from Fortinet and others; Safe Browsing clean. Requested hosts include adexchangerapid.com and usrpubtrk.com.

Practical user impact

Users risk copyright complaints, unreliable streams, and exposure to aggressive ads or trackers. No credential harvesting or downloads observed. Legal streaming services recommended instead.

Why the score is 52

Saved antivirus evidence is adverse but is not fresh enough for a current conviction. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

Proceed with caution

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

  • Analyst recommendation

    Avoid for legal and security reasons; use official league apps or paid services. Block third-party scripts if visiting.

  • Treat strikeout.im 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.

08 · 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 strikeout.im a scam or is it safe?
There isn't enough evidence yet for us to give strikeout.im a confident verdict, so treat it with caution. 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 strikeout.im safe to use?
strikeout.im has a Safety Score of 52/100 (Moderate Risk). Analysis coverage is strong at 75%. Do not trust blindly; analysis may be limited.
Has strikeout.im been flagged by antivirus engines?
Yes. 4 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged strikeout.im, 2 of them as outright malicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
Is strikeout.im on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — strikeout.im 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.
Does strikeout.im have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — strikeout.im presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YE2, valid for another 40 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 strikeout.im hosted?
strikeout.im resolves to an IP operated by Netulu Incorporated in CH (Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). 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 strikeout.im report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on July 30, 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 strikeout.im has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
