Evidence Summary

VirusTotal
12/89
URLScan
Stored capture

The domain admin.circlenet.social is identified as a high-risk generic phishing domain. The page title 'Circle Admin — Login' suggests an attempt to impersonate a legitimate Circle admin login portal, potentially targeting users of Circle-related services or platforms. This domain may be part of a broader campaign to drain cryptocurrency wallets or steal login credentials.

Analysis indicates that admin.circlenet.social is flagged by 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a low but significant level of detection. The domain is registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC and resolves to the IP address 216.198.79.1. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, which is common for both legitimate and malicious sites. The domain appears on three security blocklists and is blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. The creation date is not specified, but the domain's presence on multiple blocklists and its current active status indicate ongoing malicious activity.

The domain remains active, posing a continued risk to users. Recommended response actions include blocking the domain at the network level, educating users about the risks of phishing, and monitoring for any unauthorized access attempts. Despite the low VirusTotal detection rate, the domain's inclusion on multiple blocklists and active status suggest that it is a credible threat, and caution should be exercised to mitigate potential damage.
