The domain mexc.stream is a confirmed phishing site engaged in brand impersonation targeting the cryptocurrency exchange MEXC. It presents itself as the legitimate MEXC platform to deceive users into entering sensitive credentials or transferring funds, posing an elevated risk as a cryptocurrency scam. As of the latest verification, mexc.stream has been taken offline, though it previously operated without a known drainer kit.
Technical analysis reveals that mexc.stream was flagged by 3 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, including CRDF, Fortinet, and Gridinsoft, which assigned it a trust score of 0/100. The domain appears on 1 security blocklist (PhishDestroy) but was not flagged by Google Safe Browsing. Registered through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. on August 31, 2025, it resolved to the IP address 45.192.98.52, hosted in Hong Kong under AS401701 (cognetcloud INC). The site lacked an SSL certificate, and its observed page title was 'MEXC-ZH'. Nameservers were limited to a single entry.
Users who interacted with mexc.stream should immediately change any compromised credentials, enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on their MEXC account, and monitor for unauthorized transactions. If cryptocurrency was involved, revoke any token approvals granted to unknown contracts and consider transferring funds to a new wallet. Report the phishing domain to MEXC’s official security team and submit it to platforms like PhishTank or Google Safe Browsing to aid in broader protection efforts.

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.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
