globetrades[.]net

The domain globetrades.net was registered on February 21, 2026 and is presently taken offline. DNS resolution points to the address 198.251.81.49, which is announced by AS53667 (FranTech Solutions) and geolocated to the United States. The site presented the page title "Globetrades ™ | Discover the potentials of earning in an enhanced cryptocurrency system," indicating a cryptocurrency‑focused offering. Analysis of the page’s branding shows an explicit impersonation of the brand "across," confirming a brand‑impersonation vector.

The SSL certificate associated with the host is identified only as "E6," a minimal descriptor that does not convey a high‑trust certificate profile. Reputation scoring from Gridinsoft assigns the domain a trust score of 23 out of 100, reinforcing its low credibility. On VirusTotal the host was flagged by ten of ninety‑three scanning engines, providing independent confirmation of malicious characteristics. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and was actively blocked by the PhishDestroy service.

AlienVault OTX records the domain in one threat‑intel pulse, further evidencing its inclusion in community‑shared indicators of compromise. Given the combination of a low trust score, multiple vendor detections, blocklist presence, and the explicit brand‑impersonation claim, the infrastructure should be treated as a confirmed crypto scam. Defenders are advised to add globetrades.net and its resolving IP 198.251.81.49 to deny lists, monitor for potential re‑registration or related domains, and incorporate the observed page title and SSL fingerprint into detection signatures. Continuous observation of the associated ASN (AS53667) for any resurgence of malicious activity is also recommended.
