smart-safety.coinbase-route.com is a Coinbase impersonation page detected by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-15. Risk: critical (75/100). Registrar: eName Technology. Status: Content unavailable. Hosting: Yancy Limited. PhishDestroy sent 1 abuse report. Do not enter credentials or connect a wallet.
smart-safety.coinbase-route.com is a phishing page that impersonates Coinbase and targets the exchange's customers. Its name pairs the real brand with security language ("smart-safety", "route") to look like an official account-protection step. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-10-15. The site has been offline since 2026-10-17 and was still unreachable on 2026-10-19. The page title read "Cenyee", which does not match Coinbase branding, but scanning identified Coinbase content and we classify the site as Coinbase impersonation.
How the scam works
Lures of this kind usually arrive as a fake security alert, telling the victim their Coinbase account needs verification or protection. The victim lands on a page styled like Coinbase that asks for an email, password and two-factor code, and sometimes a wallet recovery phrase. Whatever is typed goes straight to the operators, who can log in, change the withdrawal settings and empty the account before the owner notices.
Evidence
urlscan.io rated the page malicious and recognised Coinbase branding on it. The domain is listed on the MetaMask and SEAL blocklists as well as PhishDestroy's own. VirusTotal showed 0 detections out of 92 engines on 2026-10-15, so a clean result there would not have protected anyone from this site during its short life.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-10-07 through eName Technology Co., Ltd., eight days before PhishDestroy caught it. It ran from an IP on the Yancy Limited network in the US. That gap between registration and detection, combined with a lifespan of roughly ten days, fits a disposable domain built for one short campaign.
What to do
If you entered Coinbase credentials here, change your password immediately and reset two-factor authentication, preferably to a hardware key or authenticator app. Then sign out all active sessions and review recent logins, API keys and saved withdrawal addresses. If you typed a recovery phrase, treat that wallet as compromised and move the funds to a newly generated wallet. Report the incident to Coinbase support. Defenders should block the domain and the coinbase-route.com parent, and watch mail and DNS logs for lookalike Coinbase "safety" subdomains.
No. PhishDestroy classifies smart-safety.coinbase-route.com as a Coinbase impersonation page (risk: critical, 75/100); it was first detected on 2026-10-15. Treat the site as unsafe.
Is smart-safety.coinbase-route.com safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on smart-safety.coinbase-route.com. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.
What should I do if I used smart-safety.coinbase-route.com?
Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.

Recommendations & Advice for Victims
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site
What information should I collect for my report?
FBI guidelines
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including smart-safety.coinbase-route.com)
Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used
Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.
Where should I report the scam?
FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
"Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
