The domain sahara-ai.digital is a confirmed phishing site engaged in brand impersonation targeting MetaMask users. It poses an elevated risk by presenting itself as a cryptocurrency airdrop page ('Sahara AI: OKX Airdrop') to deceive victims into disclosing wallet credentials or transferring funds. No drainer kit was identified, but the site is classified as a cryptocurrency scam. As of the latest verification, sahara-ai.digital has been taken offline.

Technical indicators confirm the malicious nature of sahara-ai.digital. The domain was flagged by 2 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, including CRDF and Gridinsoft (trust score 0/100). It appears on two security blocklists: PhishDestroy and ScamSniffer. Registered through Web Commerce Communications Limited dba WebNic.cc on June 20, 2025, the domain resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3, hosted on Cloudflare's network (AS13335). The SSL certificate is issued by WE1, and the site returned an HTTP 429 status code before being taken offline.

Victims of sahara-ai.digital should immediately revoke any token approvals granted to unknown contracts and transfer remaining funds to a new wallet. Change passwords for any accounts accessed on the device used to visit the site and enable two-factor authentication where available. Report the phishing domain to Google Safe Browsing, MetaMask's official abuse channels, and local cybercrime authorities to aid in takedown 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.

Accountability draft Nothing is sent automatically.
