Beware of Live-Streaming Scams

Recently we’ve been seeing more and more “people” trying to scam you into following fake links to live streams in order to scam you out of your credit card info. This is a despicable act and I hope Facebook does something soon about these schemes.

In the meantime, please be very careful when looking for live streams. If it’s a home game for one of our WE ARE schools, you can find the game on this site or on the channel’s Facebook page. We will never charge for games or any of our content… thank you, sponsors!

Sometimes a school will live stream content from their pages or on YouTube, those are legit, of course. There are other services that I know of that live stream and are free to the end-user (like Zalesky Sports near Marshfield and iFan TV out of Superior). I also know that some schools have gone with NFHS, which does require payment for their streaming services – but that’s the only one that I know of that will charge you and is a legit way to see the live stream.

If you’re ever in doubt, you can email me – bob@thewearenetwork.com or call the school that you’re interested in watching and they’ll have the info for you.

The above video was originally live-streamed and recorded on our Facebook pages.
