================================================================

Fetched:   2026-04-21 23:21:14 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/coinbaseandhelpcenter.netlify.app/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: cryptocurrency
Targeted brand: Coinbase

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      0/95 security vendors flagged this domain
Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists
Google Safe Browsing: FLAGGED

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       Name.com, Inc (Netlify)
Registered:      2026-02-21
Page title:      Site not found
HTTP response:   404

## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-02-26 23:24:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-04-12 19:50:50 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-02-24 03:00:34 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-24 01:11:06 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has identified coinbaseandhelpcenter.netlify.app as a domain involved in brand impersonation targeting Coinbase. The domain was created on February 21, 2026, and attempts to deceive users by mimicking the Coinbase brand, though the site currently returns a 'Site not found' page. This domain is flagged for social engineering activities, indicating possible phishing attempts or other fraudulent tactics.

From a technical perspective, the domain is registered through Name.com, Inc and hosted on Netlify. While VirusTotal scans report zero detections across 95 security vendors, the domain has been listed in two separate security blocklists and is flagged by Google Safe Browsing for social engineering. This discrepancy suggests the domain may be in early stages of malicious use or evading traditional signature-based detection.

Currently, coinbaseandhelpcenter.netlify.app is offline, reducing immediate risk. PhishDestroy recommends continued monitoring of this domain and caution for users encountering it. Security teams should consider blocking this domain proactively due to its association with brand impersonation and social engineering activity to mitigate potential phishing risks.

## 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.
