Everything from torrent and streaming sites, to Kodi add-ons have been shutting down lately and it has created a volatile landscape for pirates around the world.

The reality is, when a large torrent site suddenly disappears, opportunists try and quickly fill in the gaps with look-a-like clone websites. If you are on the lookout for new torrent sites to use, it is important to note that there has been a huge influx in fake and malicious clone sites popping up.

These sites are loaded with malicious ads, viruses, and malware. Some try to lure you in to providing credit card information to set up an account and more.
