# link-protocol.com — SUSPICIOUS

> link-protocol.com impersonates Sei in a brand impersonation scam. Domain flagged on 5 blocklists. Verify safety on PhishDestroy before proceeding.

## Summary
link-protocol.com is currently classified with an elevated risk level due to its engagement in brand impersonation targeting the Sei crypto brand. This threat involves the domain masquerading as Sei to deceive users, potentially leading to credential theft, cryptocurrency drain, or other fraudulent activities. Such impersonation is a significant risk in the crypto space, where trust and authenticity are critical.

Technical intelligence reveals that link-protocol.com was registered recently, on May 13, 2025, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3 and holds an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services, which may lend a deceptive appearance of legitimacy. Despite this, the domain is flagged by 1 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and appears on 5 distinct security blocklists, including Polkadot, Codeesura, CryptoFirewall, Enkrypt, and ScamSniffer, underscoring its high-risk profile. The combination of a new registration date, multiple blocklist appearances, and a low trust score from VirusTotal supports the elevated threat categorization.

To mitigate risks associated with link-protocol.com's brand impersonation threat, users should avoid interacting with the domain or submitting any personal or crypto credentials. It is crucial to verify any Sei-related URLs or communications through official Sei channels or trusted security platforms such as PhishDestroy. Employing browser extensions and security solutions that block known malicious domains can prevent accidental visits. Additionally, staying informed about current scam tactics and checking domain reputations before engagement can significantly reduce exposure to such impersonation scams.
