Stored capture

Stored narrative · generated . Provider checks below retain their own observation dates.

This domain, etherax.finance, poses a threat by impersonating the Discord brand to deceive users into believing they are accessing a legitimate service. The site's title, 'Trade - Etherex Exchange,' suggests it may attempt to trick users into providing login credentials or financial information under the guise of a cryptocurrency exchange. Such brand impersonation attacks are designed to harvest sensitive data, leading to account compromise or financial loss.

Technical analysis confirms the threat. VirusTotal shows 4 out of 95 security vendors flagging this domain as malicious. The domain was registered through Dynadot Inc, and its SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, which is commonly abused by phishers. The site resolves to IP 188.114.97.3 and uses Google Web Server, HSTS, and HTTP/3. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0/100, and the domain appears on 1 security blocklist. PhishDestroy has blocked it, indicating active phishing infrastructure.

If you visited this domain, do not enter any personal or financial information. Immediately change passwords for any accounts you may have used on the site and enable two-factor authentication where available. Monitor your accounts for unauthorized activity and report the incident to your email or service provider. Run a security scan on your device to check for malware. Avoid revisiting the domain and report it to relevant cybersecurity authorities.

Accreditation and RAA context

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations

For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.

RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
