Is a sponsorship email from Hostinger legit?
Hostinger does sponsor creators, which is exactly why scammers wear its name. Here is how the real thing looks, and how to tell the difference in one minute.
The real domains
Real Hostinger outreach comes from these registered domains (or their subdomains):
hostinger.com
A different ending (like .co instead of .com), extra words (like -collab or -media), or a free mail address are the three most common impersonation moves.
How real Hostinger deals work
Hostinger outreach uses hostinger.com.
Hosting companies are among the oldest YouTube sponsor categories: affiliate revenue plus flat-fee integrations, standardized briefs, payment on invoice.
Known impersonations of Hostinger
- The brief.pdf that is really a .lnk shortcut: Inside the attached or downloaded folder sits a file that looks like a document but ends in .lnk, .js, or .vbs. Windows hides the real extension, so brief.pdf.lnk shows as brief.pdf and runs a hidden command when opened.
