Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is classified as a high-risk brand impersonation threat specifically targeting Coinbase, a major cryptocurrency exchange platform. Analysis indicates the site is designed to deceive users into believing it is an official Coinbase cryptomining or trading service, as evidenced by the page title 'Coinbase Cryptomining |Forex and Crypto market.' The domain poses a significant risk of credential harvesting, financial fraud, or unauthorized access to user accounts associated with the impersonated brand. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain cbasemining.info was registered on August 06, 2025, through Dynadot Inc. It currently resolves to the IP address 23.137.104.240 and employs a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which may lend an appearance of legitimacy. Google Safe Browsing has flagged the domain under the 'SOCIAL_ENGINEERING' category, and VirusTotal reports that 5 out of 95 security vendors detect the domain as malicious. Despite these warnings, the domain remains active, increasing the likelihood of successful exploitation against unsuspecting users. Mitigation steps for this specific threat type include immediate blacklisting of the domain and its associated IP address across network security controls. Organizations should update endpoint protection rules to block access to cbasemining.info and monitor for any attempts to visit the site from internal networks. Users who may have interacted with the domain should be directed to reset credentials for Coinbase and any other accounts where identical passwords were used. Security teams are advised to review logs for connections to 23.137.104.240 and investigate potential data exfiltration or unauthorized transactions linked to this campaign. Awareness training should emphasize the risks of brand impersonation, particularly in the cryptocurrency sector, and encourage verification of domain authenticity before entering sensitive information. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 695e23d635425ebf4a20abe60554512e6878ca8d6857c4f08a795b19c8c45d46 ## 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 (operator 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/cbasemining.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cbasemining.info 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
