Are you sure your scoop is up to date? Clean cache and reinstall
Please run scoop update; scoop cache rm netcat; and update/reinstall application

Hash mismatch could be caused by these factors:

• Network error
• Antivirus configuration
• Blocked site (Great Firewall of China, Corporate restrictions, ...)
