Security engines reporting a detection: 13. Public blocklists reporting a match: 4. Exercise extreme caution — do not enter credentials or personal information.
The domain vote-backpack.exchange was registered through NameCheap on 26 December 2025 and is currently hosted behind the Cloudflare network (ASN 13335) at IP address 188.114.97.3, which geolocates to the United States. The authoritative nameservers are raphaela.ns.cloudflare.com and tanner.ns.cloudflare.com, confirming the use of Cloudflare’s DNS infrastructure. No TLS certificate is presented for the host, indicating that the site operates without HTTPS protection. The page title retrieved prior to takedown reads “Home - Backpack: Crypto Exchange & Wallet | Solana, Ethereum & BTC”, directly referencing the Backpack brand and suggesting a crypto‑exchange impersonation.
VirusTotal records show that 13 of 93 security scanners flagged the domain, providing independent corroboration of malicious intent. The domain is listed on five public blocklists—PhishDestroy, ScamSniffer, Polkadot, Enkrypt, and Codeesura—demonstrating that multiple anti‑phishing services have identified it as abusive. The threat classification supplied as “brand impersonation” and “crypto scam” aligns with the observed page title and the presence of the Backpack brand in the content. The site’s current status is offline, limiting further behavioural analysis; consequently, the exact payload, phishing pages, or credential‑harvesting mechanisms remain unknown.
Nevertheless, the combination of recent registration, Cloudflare hosting, lack of encryption, brand‑specific page title, blocklist listings, and multi‑vendor detections strongly indicates a high‑risk phishing operation targeting users of the Backpack platform. Defensive recommendations include adding vote-backpack.exchange to network deny lists, monitoring for DNS queries to the associated IP and nameservers, and employing URL filtering to block any future re‑hosting attempts. Continuous observation of related domains registered with the same registrar or sharing the same nameserver pattern is advised to pre‑empt potential campaign expansion.

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.
This timeline displays historical security and status checkpoints observed by the PhishDestroy automated monitoring network. It records domain lifecycle updates, scanner changes, and threat telemetry over time.
12 recorded events. These records describe collected evidence, outgoing notifications and publication; they do not confirm a complete investigation or a takedown.

A stored Cloudflare Radar report is available. The report link alone is not a malicious verdict and does not prove that every network field was captured.
