Registrar: Name.com, Inc. Nameservers: ["ns1.vercel-dns.com", "ns2.vercel-dns.com"] Registered: 2026-03-11 Page title: 404: NOT_FOUND HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-06-09 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 51bd63afd62d1bbfb172d3108f2ebafaf246367fbf0fd58488bc0fddf5bd8152 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-03-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-03-12 00:30:02 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-12 22:43:39 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-16 03:16:53 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ce201-8d85-72e5-97b9-b44aa69a56d2/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/847312-coinbase.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.847312-coinbase.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=847312-coinbase.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/847312-coinbase.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/847312-coinbase.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-18 17:34:12 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies 847312-coinbase.com as a high-risk brand impersonation domain targeting Coinbase, a leading cryptocurrency exchange. The domain was designed to deceive users by mimicking Coinbase, aiming to harvest sensitive credentials or conduct fraudulent activities. Due to its malicious intent, it posed a significant threat to unsuspecting individuals and businesses relying on Coinbase services. Supporting evidence underlines the domain’s malicious nature: it was created on March 11, 2026, through Name.com, Inc., and resolved to the IP address 216.198.79.65. The domain appeared on two security blocklists and was flagged by Google Safe Browsing for social engineering risks. VirusTotal analysis revealed that 12 out of 95 security vendors detected suspicious activity associated with this domain. However, the page title currently displays a "404: NOT_FOUND" error, indicating the site content is no longer accessible. Mitigation has been effective as the domain is currently offline, reducing immediate risk to users. Nonetheless, PhishDestroy advises continued vigilance against similar brand impersonation attempts targeting cryptocurrency platforms. Users should verify URLs carefully and rely on official channels to avoid falling victim to phishing scams. Monitoring security blocklists and threat intelligence feeds remains crucial to promptly identify and neutralize emerging threats like 847312-coinbase.com. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 51bd63afd62d1bbfb172d3108f2ebafaf246367fbf0fd58488bc0fddf5bd8152 ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/847312-coinbase.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=847312-coinbase.com Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
