Outgoing abuse reports are recorded; the latest stored availability evidence still shows the domain reachable.
Notification and current-status evidence

The recorded recipient is abuse@spaceship.com.
The latest stored availability evidence still shows the domain reachable; 13 days has elapsed since the first outgoing report.

theindexfinance.bond is an impersonation phishing page built around the name "The Index" and the pitch "hold it, get paid in stocks." It targets crypto users who are drawn by the idea of earning stock rewards just for holding. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-10-07, the same day the domain was registered. As of 2026-10-19 the site is online and still serving its content.
How the scam works
The page title sells a passive-income promise: hold the asset and stock payouts arrive on their own. Impersonation sites like this borrow a project's name and branding so visitors believe they have reached the official platform. They then push visitors toward the step that matters to the operator, such as connecting a wallet, signing a transaction, buying in, or entering account details. Once that happens, the victim can lose whatever the signature or deposit unlocks, and the promised stock rewards never arrive.
Evidence
VirusTotal shows 11 of 92 engines flagging the domain as of 2026-10-11. The flagging vendors include Netcraft, Fortinet, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Emsisoft, G-Data, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF and Gridinsoft. That is a minority of engines, but they are independent vendors reaching the same verdict within days of launch. The domain also appears on the wallet-security blocklists run by MetaMask, ScamSniffer and SEAL, alongside PhishDestroy, so wallet users with those protections should see a warning.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Spaceship, Inc. on 2026-10-07 and flagged that same day. That timing points to a freshly spun-up site rather than an established service. Traffic runs through Cloudflare's network in the US, which shields the real origin server from view. The certificate is a free Let's Encrypt one, so the browser padlock only means the connection is encrypted, not that the site is legitimate.
What to do
If you connected a wallet or signed anything on this site, revoke token approvals for any contract you don't recognize right away. If you are unsure what you signed, move the remaining funds to a fresh wallet. If you entered a password or seed phrase, treat it as compromised: move assets to a new wallet and change the password and 2FA on any account that reused those credentials. Do not send further payments to "unlock" stock rewards. Defenders should block the domain at DNS and proxy level and report it to Cloudflare and Spaceship for takedown.

ShortDot zone evidence
The linked repository preserves daily zone observations across seven ShortDot-operated TLDs, including registration volume and abuse-related indicators. This registry context is supporting background and is not an independent detection for the domain in this report.
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

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.
