The domain www.vertexglobaltrade.live was registered on February 21, 2026 through GoDaddy.com, LLC and is currently active. DNS resolution points to the IP address 188.114.97.3, which belongs to Cloudflare, Inc. (AS13335) and is geolocated in the United States. The site is served behind Cloudflare’s network and presents a valid SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 certificate profile, indicating that encrypted HTTPS connections are established without certificate errors. An HTTP request returns a 200 status code, confirming that the web server is responding. The page title retrieved from the site reads "Vertex Global Trade | Welcome To Vertex Global Trade | It's A 100% Decentralized," and the site advertises a crypto‑related offering, matching the classified scam type of a crypto scam.

Technological fingerprinting identifies PHP, Bootstrap, metisMenu, Modernizr, jQuery, Popper, and HTTP/3 as components of the hosting stack, all of which are commonly used by legitimate sites but also by malicious actors to blend in with normal traffic. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by PhishDestroy, reflecting that at least one security community has taken remediation action. VirusTotal analysis shows that one out of ninety‑three scanning engines flagged the domain, suggesting limited but non‑trivial detection by automated tools. Additionally, Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100, reinforcing the malicious assessment.

The site explicitly impersonates the Trust Wallet brand, as indicated by the known intelligence label and the page title reference to verification by Trust Wallet. While the exact content of the landing page beyond the title has not been disclosed, the combination of brand impersonation, crypto‑focused language, low trust scores, and a single vendor detection constitutes a high‑risk indicator. Defenders should add www.vertexglobaltrade.
