Analysis of leinoholdings.com, created on February 21 2026 and hosted by Namecheap (AS22612) in the United States, shows a high‑confidence credential‑phishing campaign targeting the Ethereum brand. The domain resolves to IP 198.187.31.167, which is owned by Namecheap, Inc., and presents a valid Sectigo Limited DV certificate issued by the Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA. HTTP requests return status 200 and the site advertises Cloudflare Browser Insights, Cloudflare, and HTTP/3, indicating the use of Cloudflare’s CDN services. The page title returned by the server is "Leino Holdings," which does not directly reference Ethereum but the listed impersonation target confirms the intent to deceive Ethereum users.

Google Safe Browsing flags the site for social engineering, and seven out of ninety‑three VirusTotal scanners have marked the domain as malicious, reinforcing the phishing assessment. The registrar listed is NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited, and the nameservers are dns1.namecheaphosting.com and dns2.namecheaphosting.com. The domain is currently blocked by PhishDestroy and appears on a single security blocklist, while Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 / 100, reflecting the extreme risk.

Although the visual content of the landing page has not been examined, the combination of brand impersonation, credential‑phishing classification, active status, and multiple independent detections provides sufficient evidence for mitigation. Defenders should block the domain at the DNS and proxy layers, add the IP address 198.187.31.167 to threat‑intel feeds, and monitor for any related C2 infrastructure that may share the same hosting provider. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised in case additional indicators emerge, but the present evidence warrants immediate protective action.
