connecctiipss.com is an impersonation phishing site built to pass as connectIPS, the online payment and fund-transfer platform used by bank customers in Nepal. The doubled letters in the domain are a classic typosquat, meant to slip past someone who misspells the real name or skims a link in a message. PhishDestroy flagged it on 2026-10-14, the same day it was registered. The site has been offline since 2026-10-16, and its DNS was still inactive when last checked on 2026-10-19.
How the scam works
The page carried the title "Access Restricted — connectIPS". That wording fits a common pressure tactic: the victim is told their account is blocked and must sign in or verify their identity to restore access. Anyone who follows through hands over their connectIPS username and password, and often a one-time code or linked bank details. With those, an attacker can log in to the real service and move money out of linked accounts before the owner notices.
Evidence
When VirusTotal checked the domain on 2026-10-14, none of its 92 engines flagged it. A brand-new phishing domain often gets this clean result, because it has had no time to collect reports. The classification therefore rests on PhishDestroy's own detection. It is also supported by four AlienVault OTX threat pulses that reference the domain, which shows other researchers tracked it independently.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Name.com, Inc. on 2026-10-14 and detected within hours. It went dark about two days later, a lifecycle typical of short, disposable phishing runs. It was hosted at IP 216.150.16.129 on Amazon.com, Inc. network space in the US. A Let's Encrypt certificate gave the page a browser padlock, which proves only that the connection was encrypted, not that the site was genuine.
What to do
If you entered your connectIPS credentials on this site, change your password immediately through the official app or website. Then contact your bank and connectIPS support so they can watch for or block unauthorized transfers. Review recent transactions and linked accounts. If you reused that password elsewhere, change it there as well, and be suspicious of any follow-up calls or messages asking for OTP codes. Defenders should block the domain and its IP, and search mail and SMS logs for links to it sent between 2026-10-14 and 2026-10-16. Lookalike connectIPS domains also belong on watchlists, since this operation could easily re-register a new variant.

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.
