sca[.]airdropsalert[.]bar

Analysis of sca.airdropsalert.bar shows it was registered on 20 October 2025 via Dynadot LLC. The domain uses Cloudflare name servers brenna.ns.cloudflare.com and hassan.ns.cloudflare.com and resolves to IP 216.58.206.68, which belongs to AS15169 Google LLC and is geolocated in Germany. The page title returned is “Google”, matching the declared brand target and confirming the impersonation of Google. The site is classified as a crypto‑scam, and VirusTotal records indicate that 16 of 95 scanning engines flagged the domain as malicious. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100, and the domain appears on a single security blocklist.

It has been actively blocked by PhishDestroy and is currently taken offline, as indicated by the “offline” status. No SSL certificate was observed, meaning the site operated without HTTPS. The combination of a brand‑matching page title, low trust score, multiple vendor detections, and the use of a legitimate Google IP for hosting suggests a deliberate attempt to lend credibility to a fraudulent cryptocurrency offering.

Uncertainty remains regarding the exact payload or phishing pages that were served before takedown, as no content snapshots are available. Defenders should continue to block the domain at perimeter and endpoint layers, monitor for any resurgence or reuse of the same name servers, and watch for related domains that resolve to the same IP or employ similar Cloudflare name servers. Threat intel feeds should be updated to reflect the domain’s association with a Google‑impersonating crypto scam, and any detection rules that rely on the IP address 216.58.206.68 should be reviewed to avoid false positives on legitimate Google services.
