629371gemini.com is a phishing domain that poses as Gemini, the cryptocurrency exchange, to lure its customers into handing over account access. The random numeric prefix bolted onto the brand name is typical of throwaway lookalikes that are spun up in batches and passed around in ads, messages and fake support chats. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-08-08. When last checked on 2026-10-19, the domain still resolved but its page content did not load, so it could return at any time.
How the scam works
Gemini impersonation pages copy the exchange's branding and sign-in flow so that a visitor believes they are logging into their real account. Anything typed in, including email, password, two-factor codes or identity documents, goes straight to the operators. They can then log in to the genuine account and withdraw the balance. Variants of this scheme also push a fake 'wallet verification' step that asks for a recovery phrase or a wallet connection, which exposes self-custody funds as well.
Evidence
On 2026-09-13, 11 of 89 VirusTotal engines classed the domain as malicious, including Kaspersky, BitDefender, Fortinet, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, G-Data, Gridinsoft, CRDF and alphaMountain.ai. That is a modest share, but these vendors operate independently and reached the same verdict. Spamhaus lists the domain in its DBL under the phishing category. MetaMask and the SEAL security alliance both block it, so wallet users get a warning before the page loads. The domain also appears in three AlienVault OTX threat pulses.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-08-07 through Cloudflare's registrar and was detected one day later. That timeline points to a site built specifically for this campaign rather than a hijacked older domain. Traffic is served through Cloudflare's network, with the visible address geolocating to Canada. Because Cloudflare acts as a proxy, that address belongs to the proxy and does not show where the actual server sits.
What to do
If you entered your Gemini credentials here, change your password at once from the official app and reset two-factor authentication. Then review recent logins, withdrawals and whitelisted addresses, and contact Gemini support. If you typed in a recovery phrase, treat that wallet as compromised and move its funds to a new wallet. If you connected a wallet, revoke any approvals granted during that session. Security teams should block the domain at DNS and the proxy, and search their mail and chat logs for lookalike Gemini domains that use numeric prefixes.
