jaxx[.]ro

On July 22, 2026, the domain jaxx.ro was identified as an active brand‑impersonation campaign aimed at Reddit. The registration record shows the domain was created on March 11, 2026 through the Dynadot registrar and is currently using Cloudflare name servers garret.ns.cloudflare.com and kate.ns.cloudflare.com. DNS resolution points to the IP address 188.114.97.3, which belongs to the Cloudflare network (AS13335) and is geolocated in the United States. The site presented a page titled “Jaxx Liberty — Market Validation & Demand Research”, which does not directly reference Reddit but the threat intelligence tags the domain as impersonating Reddit. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 root, indicating a valid TLS handshake.

Dynamic analysis on VirusTotal indicates that 4 of 94 scanned security vendors flagged the domain as malicious, and the domain appears on three external blocklists. It has also been listed by the PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL blocklist services. AlienVault OTX reports the indicator in two separate threat pulses, corroborating its association with malicious activity. Reputation scoring from Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100, reinforcing the conclusion that the domain is untrusted. The current HTTP status is reported as offline, suggesting the phishing infrastructure has been taken down, but the underlying artifacts remain observable.

Uncertainty remains regarding the exact payload delivered to victims, as the page content has not been captured beyond the title. No additional indicators such as malware hashes or command‑and‑control endpoints have been disclosed. Defenders should continue to block jaxx.ro at DNS and proxy layers, update URL filtering rules in web gateways, and monitor for any re‑appearance of the domain or its associated IP address. Incident response teams should also scan inbound emails for references to Reddit‑related social engineering that may have used this domain.
