Brand impersonation — not the real site
6 of 92 antivirus engines flag this page (5 outright malicious). This page is styled as a brand but is not the brand's real site. Go to the official site directly, and treat any download, login, or payment request here as unsafe.
Is yts-subs.info legit or a scam?
A one-day-old YTS clone site flagged by five security engines for distributing pirated content and potential phishing risks.
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.

Visual analysis
We capture a fresh screenshot of the live page and ask a vision model to look for scam visual patterns — fake trust badges, countdown timers, overlay pop-ups, and visual clones of legitimate brands.
Visual red flags detected in the screenshot
The site is a high-quality movie piracy portal using the YIFY/YTS brand to distribute copyrighted material via torrents. While the design is professional, the nature of the content and the promotion of mirror/subsidiary domains are typical of high-risk file-sharing sites.
What our vision model saw
5 signalsSite facilitates unauthorized distribution of copyrighted movie content
Promotes a secondary domain 'yts-subs.info' via a 'Quick Tip' banner
Uses the 'YIFY' branding associated with known pirate torrent distribution groups
Layout focuses on high-resolution movie downloads (720p, 1080p, 4K, 3D)
Professional-looking UI designed to mimic legitimate streaming services to gain user trust
Intelligence
The domain was registered only one day ago, which is a major red flag for any site claiming to be an established media portal. Our security engines, including BitDefender, CyRadar, and CRDF, have already flagged the site as malicious or phishing. The page is a direct clone of the yts.mx interface, a known tactic used by malicious actors to capitalize on existing brand traffic. While it presents a professional UI, the lack of business registration and the immediate blacklist hits suggest it is being used to distribute harmful files or harvest user data. The site also aggressively pushes users to bookmark this specific new domain, a common behavior for ephemeral scam mirrors.

What to do
Brand impersonation detected
This page is styled as a known brand but is not the brand's real site.
- Do not interact with yts-subs.info
Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.
- Go to the brand's real site directly
Type the brand name into a search engine or open it from your bookmarks — don't use links from emails, SMS, ads, or social posts, which are the delivery vectors for impersonation.
- Never download or sign in here
Even if the page "just" offers a download or a giveaway, impersonation pages frequently deliver malware or set up follow-up phishing. Assume anything accepted from this site is hostile.
- OpenReport the impersonation to the brand
Most major brands have a dedicated abuse or anti-phishing reporting channel — reporting helps them take the site down and protects other users.
Safer Alternatives
Trying to download software? Use a safe option instead
Downloading software? Get it from the maker's official site or an official app store — "cracked", "modded", or keygen downloads are one of the most reliable ways to install malware.
Search the product name + "official" and check the domain before downloading.
Vetted Windows apps.
Bundles legitimate free apps from their real sources.
Suggestions for safety only — not endorsements. Always verify the address bar before signing in or paying, even on well-known sites.
