erp.circle.co.zm serves a sign-in page titled "Circle - Login". PhishDestroy classifies it as credential phishing. The "erp" subdomain makes it look like an internal business or back-office portal, which suits a page meant to collect staff or customer logins. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-06. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still alive and its content was reachable through a redirect, so the threat remains active.
How the scam works
Victims arrive at what looks like a routine Circle login screen, usually through a link in an email, chat message or search result. Anything typed into the form, such as a username, email address or password, goes to the operators rather than to a real service. With those credentials the attackers can take over the account, reuse the password on other services and, where crypto access is involved, move funds or gain enough access to drain them. The page's ordinary, portal-style look is what makes the theft work.
Evidence
On 2026-09-20, five of 89 VirusTotal engines flagged the site: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That is a low count, so many security tools will still let the page load without a warning. The listings that matter most come from crypto-focused blocklists. Besides PhishDestroy, the domain appears on the MetaMask and SEAL lists, which shows that wallet and security teams also treat it as a threat to crypto users.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Zamnet on 2023-01-19, more than three and a half years before PhishDestroy detected it on 2026-09-06. That long gap points to an older domain, or a subdomain on one, being used for phishing rather than a freshly registered lookalike. It resolves to 162.0.209.91 on the Namecheap network in the United States. The site has a valid HTTPS certificate, so the browser padlock says nothing about whether the page is safe.
What to do
If you entered a password on this page, change it right away, along with the password on every other account where you reused it. Turn on app-based or hardware-key two-factor authentication on those accounts. Then check recent login activity and sign out all active sessions. If the account had any access to crypto funds or exchange balances, review recent transactions and contact the real provider's support. Security teams should block the domain and its IP at the proxy and DNS level, search mail and web logs for users who visited it, and force credential resets for anyone who did.

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.
