No need for an app to stream euro 2024, there are many free websites where you can get a 1080p FHD stream for free. You just have to find them, you can get them mostly on Reddit and Google. No need to download anything.
Watching games becomes very easy with accessible websites that are consider to be legitimate and free running of these matches. However I probably stick with app because I feel more safer with app because online games comes with more online adverts which doesn't impress me any bit. We should be careful at all times because the world we live in is totally corrupt and we should be very careful with the activities we indulged with. The top way to reduced our planning should be very strict.

Could be but there might be fans really don't know where to start in the first place, uses Google as their search engine and then this criminals paid for Google Ads to be in the first page once that keyword is use and then boom, they download this supposedly free streaming apps that is laden with crypto stealing information.

So good to have this kind of warning from time to time at least it's like a notification for us to wake up in time not go get hype with this free streaming apps for the most watch sports in the world.

Thanks OP!
Those who are patronizing the usage of free streaming services just to watch UEFA or any kind of league and sports are in danger of being infected. Paying a subscription for your favorite sport is a convenient thing to do as you support the league and sports that you are a fan of. While it seem to be a convenient thing to watch on those free streaming services that have been posted in different social medias, if the link is obviously unknown, you have to make your own move of avoiding them or just watch the games on your TV or any trusted source.

It goes without saying that constantly patronizing free things have a net negative effect in the long run. I say this not just from streaming services but also for people that enjoy pirated apps abd softwares too because malate can be carefully packaged into them and positioned well to steal crucial information from unsuspecting users.  The streaming site itself might not have malware but the ads they promote might.

Best practice is to simply avoid. It's always better to be safe than sorry.

Some people got tempted on those apps introduce that they can free stream Euro 2024 by just simply downloading the those apps. The they are unaware about those possible malwares inserted on those apps so it will be so risky if they download those poison app and their data's will be stolen.

So for us not to get affected by risk brought up by those malwares much better if we avoid  downloading any random apps especially if they just search it on google. Much better if they go on free livestreaming without downloading or go to youtube live score updates. There are lots of ways to watch Euro 2024 for free its just they need to do further more research and avoid those who require to download their app before we can watch those live games.

So for football fans out here in our community, just be very careful of looking for free streaming in the internet or in our mobile devices as we don't know if the streaming that we will access is dropping something in our device from the background and could steal our sensitive information including banking logins and our crypto wallets.
Anyone who wants to be safe online while streaming these games should do it from the official source. You can count on your security online because when you are stream using the official streaming services because they are regulated, and have a lot things put in place that protects their users from any cyber attack like malware and phishing attacks. Whenever I see anyone who tries to use free streaming services, I just call it a penny wise pound foolish because the money would have spent on paying for ESPN+, Sky Sports, paid subscription would be more than the one spent when you lose your data, funds, for software updates which was very avoidable.

This is true for most users, as we all have more or less sensitive data in our devices (name, surname, address, usernames and passwords, card details...) but even more for crypto users.

We never tire of saying that no one should keep his addresses and keys in their smartphones, for example, and the news in the OP is a great example of a real and current threat.

many people underestimate this even though when they watch from illegal sites, their devices are vulnerable to viruses or malware, and that could potentially harm them more. moreover, the cost of subscribing to euro streaming is not too expensive, and if someone is aware of this and wants to watch comfortably, then subscribing to a streaming service is very worth it and it does not make them poor. or if they really don't want to pay, they can watch from tiktok. although i don't recommend it since the screen is cropped and you need to zoom and that's not comfortable.

Those who are looking for something bad to happen to them will always find it no matter how much someone warns them about it. In addition, here in the EU, matches can be watched on national TV (FTA), at least as far as my country is concerned, and if someone needs another source, there are many "illegal" IPTV services that offer a handful of programs for a relatively low price.

I think this malware targets primarily those outside the EU, because the interest in this competition is high everywhere where people love football.
those that are living in an environment where it's deficult to watch the Euros on your television due to the high charges you have to pay to the get access to enough channels where the euros and Copa America will be reflected are the major individual that might fall victim of these kind of scheme and if this malware is in an app that's outside of this one you've stated here, then i might be endangering myself cause I stream most of my matches on an app on my mobile device.

I have a free app that allows me steam all EPL, champions league, euros and even world cup qualifier from my mobile device and the only thing they do is to allow for ads and that's it. Don't know  If this is applicable in my context although the name of the app that's mentioned here isn't same with the app I have on my mobile device.

Any football fan who wants to watch UEFA EURO 2024 can watch it on his television via the official and local channels with broadcast rights... I see no obstacle in that. If he does not have a television, he can watch the matches via the official websites of these major channels or through its official applications on a mobile phone or computer. Even if it requires paying a subscription fee, there is nothing wrong with that, as the viewer will be safe and get what he wants in a legitimate way instead of downloading one of the malicious streaming applications, such as 4K Sports, which contains malicious malware, which will lead to his device being hacked in the end. The matter will worsen if football fans are interested in crypto because hackers can drain their wallets and steal sensitive security information.

Everyone must be careful and not help scammers succeed in their scams.

Nice info OP for the football fans watching the UEFA Euro 2024 matches and seems has the same happening with Copa America 2024 because many fans expected watching Lionel Messi with his national teams Argentina. Many not official streaming website full with advertising directly make us click some malware link get potential our phone or using computer not secure later.
Right now its good way adopt by hacker looking the interested people watching Euro 2024 matches and most of them can't access with broadcast TV or purchasing the official premium streaming website.

I don't use my computer for watching any streaming of football and usually I purchase the official streaming website for watching all football matches without any advertising link.

The Medusa malware has re-emerge in the last couple of months, and since we are in the UEFA EURO 2024 fever, they've adjust and try to take advantage of this sporting events and uses it as a bait for download and to steal all information that they can get from their victims,



So it targets mostly countries obviously in Europe as this is the most hype as far as UEFA EURO 2024 goes. And this time the malware botnet is light, but more capabilities like screen capture, so for the victims, they think that they might safe but they are not.

The recent dropper apps includes a fake streaming app called 4K, and so that's where we can be trap if we are looking for free streaming for our UEFA EURO 2024.

That's why I don't enjoy streaming matches from an unverified sites using my laptop or my cell phone, I instead painstakingly pay for my TV subscription whenever it expires just to enable me watch football match especially this UEFA EURO 2024 and Copa America that is currently going on. OP thanks for this update as to be forewarned is to be forearmed. this scammers will use any slightest opportunity to access your personal data with unscrupulous methods especially now that they know that a lot of people will want to stream matches even outside their comfort zone with their devices.

Free streaming services are showing pirated content and not making any money from you, the viewer. You should be sure that everyone of them have some downside that puts you at risk when you use them. Some sell advertisement space, but scam platforms that do not mind using pirated streams to promote their service, meaning you're being exposed to malware, phishing links and web cookies access some of your personal information.

There are always legal and/or safe alternatives to watch live football, or you use a spare device which has no personal info or data for streaming.

That's the danger of free streaming to watch EURO 2024 matches there are still many free streaming sites with many enthusiasts because it's free they will look for illegal ones instead of buying directly to watch this competition match.

I bought a streaming package on a local official channel for $6 during the EURO match this is much safer than doing with free streaming there are many advertisements and maybe it's a malware virus that we don't realize.

Any short corners finders will always fall in this kind of attack because they will think that in doing so they were being smart, instead they will be subjected to going through some rigorou procedures in other to crack for someone and gain a free access, but they have forgotten that not all are true and really works, of tlcaee is not taken, they will loose their guard against any form of attacks and at the end enjoy nothing free, to stream online should not be something each everyone of us can't afford to take the cost, nothing is free anywhere.

I guess with that they should not use any apps or software that need to download before they can stream.

They can paid those legit streaming or website so that everything will be safe at their end and they don't support piracy or grabbing someone's content for their personal gain.

But if they don't really have money then I guess there are live streamers frequently giving an update regarding what's happening in that particular game or they could just watch those who share free streams on meta.

I would like to watch matches on TV or on Youtube if I don't have access to my family television. Television and communication companies can have their websites that provide links to channels with live EURO matches.

Finding official websites and channels on Youtube or websites to watch on computer is my choice. I will not search with key words to find random sources that are strange and not official from televisions, communication companies I familiar with.

I agree with you that people do this, will make it as their habit when they use the Internet and they are most favorite potential victims of hackers not only during EURO 2024 time but throughout their lives.

That is so true, but for sure there could be limited stream sites that will give us free access even the official source. And so this cyber criminals find a way again to somewhat exploit a sporting event. Even during the height of pandemic, there are a lot of face websites news and vaccine and will ask you to download something in your system that contains malware.

So this is the same here, so at least we should be aware of this kind of modus from this criminals. And if you can't afford to pay those streaming services then it might be better to just wait for the highlights or news. But if you are willing to pay big bucks then go for legitimate sites.
