backupvault[.]online

The domain backupvault.online was created on August 23, 2025 and is currently taken offline. DNS resolution points to the IPv4 address 198.12.93.82, which belongs to AS36352 (HostPapa) and is geolocated in the United States. Registration was performed through HOSTINGER operations, UAB, and the authoritative nameservers are ns1.megatronserver.com and ns2.megatronserver.com. No TLS certificate is presented for the host, indicating that communications are unencrypted.

The site’s HTML title registers as "Home | Backup Vault," and the listed scam type is Wallet/Seed Phishing with a declared target brand of Coinbase. Reputation services have assigned a Gridinsoft trust score of 0 out of 100, reflecting a highly malicious assessment. The domain is listed on four independent blocklists—PhishDestroy, Polkadot, Enkrypt, and Codeesura—demonstrating that multiple security feeds have flagged the address. VirusTotal has recorded scans from ninety‑five antivirus engines, none of which currently label the domain as malicious; this absence of detections does not constitute a safety guarantee.

Observable evidence confirms the infrastructure and branding intent, but the exact page content and any credential‑capture mechanisms remain unverified due to the site’s offline status. Defenders should proactively block the domain and its associated IP, incorporate the listed blocklist identifiers into their threat‑intel feeds, and monitor for any re‑appearance of the same nameserver set or hosting provider. Continuous correlation with future DNS or SSL changes is advised to detect potential re‑use of the same infrastructure for similar Wallet/Seed phishing campaigns.
