Upload the file or the download URL to VirusTotal . It will scan the item against over 70 different antivirus engines to see if it has been flagged before.

If you do open the archive, ensure the file inside ends in a video format. If it looks like video.mp4.exe , it is definitely malware.

Randomly generated timestamps (like 20220831 ) are often used by bots to create thousands of unique-looking links to the same malicious payload.

Video files (like .mp4 or .mov ) are already compressed. Placing a single video inside a .rar archive is a classic tactic used by attackers to bypass email filters or antivirus scanners that might not look inside the compressed folder.
