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 domain therogueone.com is 459 days old and registered to an adult visual-novel developer who distributes games through itch.io and Patreon under the theerogueone/therogueone handles. Our antivirus network detected one malicious flag (Webroot) and one suspicious flag (alphaMountain.ai), which is a low-consensus signal but still warrants attention. The domain has no independent reviews, no business registration in public records, and almost no web presence outside of Star Wars search results and the developer's own social-media links. A generic review aggregator lists a fake "scam" entry with no supporting evidence, which appears to be spam or placeholder content. The developer's legitimate presence on established platforms (itch.io, Patreon, X, Bluesky) suggests real activity, but the main domain's lack of transparency and the antivirus flags create uncertainty about its safety for payment transactions.

Key findings
6 headline facts from open-web research
  • Domain therogueone.com (459 days old) has almost no independent web presence or reviews; searches primarily return unrelated Star Wars "Rogue One" content or the developer's itch.io/patreon under theerogueone/therogueone handles.
  • The name RogueOne is used by an adult visual novel developer creating "That New Teacher", a Ren'Py harem/domination-themed game with public builds on itch.io (theerogueone.itch.io/that-new-teacher) and paid content on Patreon (patreon.com/T
  • A generic review aggregator site (trustedrevie.ws) lists "Therogueone.com Reviews Scam" with 0.0 rating in sidebars of unrelated domain reviews, but provides no actual review, complaints, or evidence.
  • No user complaints, scam reports, Trustpilot/ScamAdviser/ScamDoc entries, Reddit discussions, or malware reports found for therogueone.com specifically.
  • No business registration, contact company details, or WHOIS-linked owner information surfaced in searches.
  • Developer maintains active profiles linking to Patreon, SubscribeStar, itch.io, X (@TheeRogueOne), and Bluesky for game updates and adult content distribution.
Research summary
Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above

We searched scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, and general web sources for therogueone.com and found no scam reports, complaints, or user feedback. A generic review aggregator (trustedrevie.ws) lists a placeholder "scam" entry with 0.0 rating but provides no actual reviews or evidence. The domain is associated with an adult visual-novel developer who maintains legitimate, active profiles on itch.io, Patreon, X, and Bluesky. For a low-traffic adult-content domain with minimal web presence, the absence of reviews is expected and is not by itself a sign of trust or distrust.

Proceed with caution

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

  • Treat therogueone.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.

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 therogueone.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.
  • therogueone.com currently scores 52/100 on our trust scale. We found enough warning signals to recommend caution. Verify the site through independent channels before entering credentials or money.
  • Yes. therogueone.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, expiring in 44 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • therogueone.com is 1.3 years old, registered on 3/9/2025 through Cloudflare, Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • 2 out of 92 antivirus engines in our malware network flagged therogueone.com as malicious or suspicious (1 outright malicious). Even one detection is a meaningful signal.
  • No. therogueone.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • therogueone.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 12, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around therogueone.com have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
