How to Spot a Fake Seller Before You Pay for Streaming

The streaming market has plenty of sellers with similar names, and some of them disappear once they have your money. These checks work wherever you buy, including from us.

Check the address, then check it again

Look-alike names are common. Our only website is yeahiptvhd.com. If a site or message uses a similar name but a different address, treat it as a separate business.

Be wary of numbers nobody could check

Huge channel counts and “number one” claims are easy to type and hard to prove. A seller worth your money will answer a specific question, like whether a particular channel is available and how it plays on your TV.

Ask about the rights

A very low price for a very large line-up can mean the seller does not have the rights to what is on offer. Ask how the content is licensed, and read the answer closely. If a service is shut down, you are likely to lose whatever you paid for it.

Read the refund terms before you pay

You should be able to find, in writing, how long you have to ask for a refund and what happens next. If the terms are missing, or the seller will not state them, that tells you a lot.

Watch how you are asked to pay

• Pay with a method that offers you some protection where you can.
• Be very careful with gift cards, cryptocurrency or transfers to a personal account, because that money is hard to get back.
• Never share a one-time code or your card PIN. No genuine seller needs them.

If something feels wrong

Stop and ask. In the United States you can report suspected fraud to the Federal Trade Commission at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. To check that a message really comes from us, read how payment works here.
