The collector marked the hostname reachable on Aug 13, 2026 at 23:49 UTC, but did not retain the HTTP response code. At collection time, the hostname resolved to 185.27.134.98 (AS34119 Wildcard UK Limited). The recorded endpoint location is Newcastle upon Tyne, GB. DOM analysis on Aug 14, 2026 at 02:22 UTC returned 0/100; the source detections above were recorded separately. The evidence archive retains 4 visual captures from PhishDestroy, URLScan, URLQuery, and Cloudflare Radar; no page title was retained, so the captures preserve the landing-page appearance. TLS metadata lists ZeroSSL GmbH as the certificate issuer with validity through Sep 24, 2026; checked Aug 14, 2026 at 01:02 UTC.
The content indicators and 6 positive source findings support the current Coinbase impersonation and phishing classification. The target field identifies Coinbase, but the record does not establish whether the page requested credentials, a seed phrase, or a wallet connection.
