This domain is flagged as a brand impersonation targeting Steam. Analysis indicates a high likelihood of malicious intent, though no active phishing page content has been confirmed. The domain steamworkshop.download was created on February 21, 2026, and is registered through Gandi SAS. It resolves to IP address 145.239.59.140, which is hosted in France on AS16276 (OVH SAS). The domain's nameservers are hosted by CloudNS, specifically ns23.cloudns.net, pns23.cloudns.net, pns24.cloudns.net, and pns22.cloudns.net. The MX records point to mx.yandex.net with priority 10, suggesting the domain may be configured for email operations, potentially for credential harvesting or follow-on scams. The page title is identical to the domain name, steamworkshop.download, which is a common tactic to appear legitimate in search results. No SSL certificate is present, indicating a lack of basic transport security. The HTTP status code 200 confirms the server is responding. VirusTotal reports 0 detections out of 95 antivirus engines, but this does not indicate safety; it may reflect the domain's recent creation or lack of widespread scanning. The domain has appeared on one security blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy, which has flagged it. The exact content of the website has not been analysed, so details such as login forms, branding elements, or tracking mechanisms are unknown. Defenders should prioritize blocking access to this domain at the network level, monitor for any outbound traffic to 145.239.59.140, and inspect email traffic associated with the mx.yandex.net mail server. Users should be alerted to avoid visiting the site or providing any personal information. Continued monitoring of the domain's HTTP responses and DNS records is recommended to detect changes in infrastructure or content. The domain remains active as of this report.
