# PhishDestroy threat dossier — web-secure-coinbase-support.tem3.io ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-14 10:07:40 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/web-secure-coinbase-support.tem3.io/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 92/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: Coinbase ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 18/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, ChainPatrol, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CyRadar, ESET, Emsisoft, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Google Safebrowsing, Kaspersky, Lionic, Netcraft, Seclookup, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot URLQuery: -1 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Google Safe Browsing: FLAGGED ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registered: 2026-05-06 Page title: Official Site® | Coinbase pro | Digital Asset Exchange* HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-06-13 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 942b33de262ab9fa6a937bd0dff73091bc8c768e13761aa10e9cd7dd2ce33180 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - tem3.io ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-06 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-06 15:30:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 06:27:42 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-14 08:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-12 02:44:10 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 22:30:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Analysis indicates that web-secure-coinbase-support.tem3.io was deployed as a brand_impersonation domain targeting Coinbase. The page title, “Official Site® | Coinbase pro | Digital Asset Exchange*”, demonstrates deliberate use of branding and terminology intended to create the appearance of legitimacy. Such infrastructure is commonly associated with credential harvesting operations that attempt to capture account credentials, authentication tokens, recovery information, or other sensitive user data through deceptive login workflows. No specific drainer kit has been identified from the available intelligence; however, the observed content is consistent with phishing infrastructure designed to exploit user trust in a recognized financial platform. Technical indicators support the malicious classification. The domain resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, with infrastructure geolocated to CA and associated with CloudFlare, Inc. The domain was created on May 06, 2026. Security telemetry shows detection by 18/95 VirusTotal security vendors. Google Safe Browsing classifies the domain as phishing. The infrastructure uses an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services / WE1, a commonly available certificate configuration that can provide an appearance of legitimacy despite malicious intent. The domain appears on 1 security blocklist and is blocked by PhishDestroy. Registrar information is not available within the provided intelligence and therefore cannot be independently verified from the supplied dataset. The domain is currently taken offline, reducing the immediate threat posed by the specific hostname. However, historical phishing infrastructure often reappears through newly registered lookalike domains, alternate subdomains, or replicated content hosted elsewhere. Any user who previously interacted with this domain should review account access logs, change passwords associated with potentially exposed accounts, invalidate active sessions where possible, and verify that multifactor authentication settings remain under their control. Security teams should maintain blocking rules for the domain, monitor for related impersonation infrastructure, and retain indicators including the IP address, page title, creation date, and detection telemetry for future correlation and threat hunting activities. Residual risk remains elevated due to the high-confidence phishing classification and documented impersonation behavior.

PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/web-secure-coinbase-support.tem3.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=web-secure-coinbase-support.tem3.io Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
