coinbaseceh[.]org

Analysis of coinbaseceh.org indicates a high‑risk cryptocurrency investment impersonation targeting Coinbase customers. The domain was registered on 2025-11-03 through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. and resolves to IP 192.252.180.21, an address owned by CTG Server Limited in Hong Kong (AS152194). No TLS certificate was observed, leaving the site exposed to plain‑HTTP interception and confirming the lack of legitimate security controls. The page title retrieved from the site reads “Coinbase One-stop global investment with professional forex trading and digital asset services,” which explicitly references Coinbase and advertises professional forex and digital‑asset services, matching the classified “Crypto Scam” type.

Google Safe Browsing lists the domain for social engineering, and it appears on a single external security blocklist. The site is also flagged by PhishDestroy and received detections from 15 of 95 antivirus engines on VirusTotal, while the Gridinsoft trust score is 0 / 100, reinforcing its malicious reputation. Nameservers are a.share-dns.com, a7.share-dns.com, b.share-dns.net, and b7.share-dns.net, typical of disposable DNS services used by threat actors. The current operational status is offline, but the infrastructure components—registrar, hosting ASN, and DNS configuration—remain active and could be reused for future campaigns.

Defenders should add coinbaseceh.org and the associated IP 192.252.180.21 to block lists, enforce URL filtering for the domain, and incorporate the observed page title string into detection signatures. Monitoring of the registrar Gname.com and the four name servers for new registrations that reuse similar patterns is advised, as is periodic re‑query of VirusTotal and other sandbox services to catch re‑hosted copies. Organizations using Coinbase services should alert users to the existence of this impersonation attempt and reinforce security awareness training around unsolicited investment offers.
