SCAM: Lightmoon IS NOT Kdenlive. Lightmoon is MALWARE.

by Farid Abdelnour | Jun 1, 2022 | News | 0 comments

We have been notified of a site that is using Kdenlive's name and
likeness to distribute malware to users. We will not be linking to
the site to avoid accidental downloads, but if a search lands you on
a site offering "lightmoon", "a free video editor" that looks in the
screenshots identical to Kdenlive, this is malware.

We are also receiving notice that the creators of the lightmoon
malware are sending out phishing emails encouraging users to download
their infected software. Please ignore and trash these messages.

Remember: The only legitimate sources for Kdenlive's software are
your distro, well-established app stores (such as FlatHub), and
Kdenlive's own download page located at: kdenlive.org
