Ahead of Oleksandr Usyk vs. Tyson Fury 2, BeStreamWise issued a warning to fans, which will be the same case for those planning to illegally stream Eubank Jr. vs. Benn 2.
BeStreamWise CEO Kieron Sharp said: "Choosing to bypass official channels to watch the highly anticipated Fury vs Usyk fight this Saturday isn't just risky - it's illegal and can expose you to serious dangers.
"Illegal streaming puts consumers at risk of malware, financial theft, and the compromise of personal data, such as emails, photos and browsing history. During events of high viewership, fraudsters are targeting unsuspecting viewers.
"BeStreamWise is dedicated to raising awareness about the significant dangers of illegal streaming, educating on the facts, and ensuring consumers know where to safely watch the content they love.
"Boxing fans should enjoy the fight offered by official providers, rather than facing the risks of being a target to criminal operations."
