Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies coinbaseusahelpdesknumberusalocal.wordpress.com as a high-risk Coinbase impersonation domain actively luring users with fraudulent support hotlines. This site masquerades as Coinbase’s legitimate help desk to deceive victims into revealing sensitive account credentials or installing malware under the guise of “technical assistance.” The threat is exacerbated by the domain’s plausible branding and the inclusion of an apparent phone number (+1 (541) 319-2912), which attackers use to trick users into initiating unsolicited calls that lead to social engineering attacks or remote access scams. This domain was flagged by 1 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating near-zero detection despite clear indicators of abuse. Registered through MarkMonitor, Inc. on March 03, 2000, the domain resolves to IP 192.0.78.12 and uses a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. The combination of an authoritative registrar, outdated creation date (March 3, 2000), and low detection rate suggests advanced impersonation tactics designed to evade automated filtering. While the domain remains widely unblocked, the single VirusTotal detection reflects emerging but insufficient coverage by security tools. If you visited coinbaseusahelpdesknumberusalocal.wordpress.com or entered any information—especially a phone number or credentials—assume compromise. Immediately revoke any permissions granted to the site and close unauthorized support tickets. Do not call the displayed number. Change your Coinbase password immediately using the official app or website (coinbase.com), enable two-factor authentication (2FA), and monitor your account for unauthorized transactions. Report the domain to Coinbase’s official abuse channel and your local cybercrime unit. Do not interact with unsolicited support communications purporting to come from Coinbase. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 5a9933e343d1ddb7ed5772e63af4f578 TLS cert SHA-256: a9a70fdcb9167d3ea3d8d8a9bddc0d939823343a198cbdcf4ef332d365566278 ## 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/coinbaseusahelpdesknumberusalocal.wordpress.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=coinbaseusahelpdesknumberusalocal.wordpress.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.
