The domain kucoin.care was registered on January 12, 2026 through Dominet (HK) Limited and is currently resolved to the IP address 18.239.36.8, which belongs to an AWS CloudFront node located in the Netherlands. DNS resolution is provided by the Alibaba Cloud nameservers ns7.alidns.com and ns8.alidns.com. The domain appears on three public security blocklists and is explicitly blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL, indicating that multiple threat‑intelligence feeds have identified it as malicious.
VirusTotal scans show that fifteen of ninety‑one security vendors flagged the domain, reinforcing the suspicion of abuse. The threat is classified as a generic phishing campaign with a high risk rating and remains active as of the report date, July 28, 2026. Infrastructure analysis suggests the operator leveraged a reputable cloud CDN to obscure the origin of the malicious payload while using widely available DNS services to maintain flexibility.
No public page title, brand target, or detailed payload information is available, so the specific victim profile cannot be confirmed. Defenders should add kucoin.care to network‑level deny lists, enforce DNS filtering against the listed blocklists, and monitor for any traffic to the associated AWS CloudFront IP. Continuous re‑evaluation of the domain’s reputation is advised, as further indicators such as page content or credential‑harvesting behavior may emerge.
