musk2trump[.]com

The domain musk2trump.com was registered on July 31, 2025 through Dynadot LLC and is currently hosted on a server owned by Contabo GmbH (AS51167) located in France. DNS resolution returns the IPv4 address 5.189.161.88, and the authoritative nameservers are ns1.streetplug.me and ns2.streetplug.me. The site is reachable over HTTP with a status code of 200, but it does not present an SSL/TLS certificate, leaving the connection unencrypted. The page title observed during analysis is "Elon Musk — X Crypto Giveaway," and the campaign is classified as a crypto‑related scam employing a giveaway phishing kit.

The threat actor explicitly positions the page as an impersonation of Coinbase, targeting users of that financial service. VirusTotal recorded a single positive detection out of 95 scanners, indicating that at least one security vendor has flagged the domain as malicious. The domain is listed on one external blocklist and has been actively blocked by the PhishDestroy service.

While the available intelligence confirms the domain’s registration details, hosting infrastructure, and the presence of a crypto giveaway lure, no additional context such as credential‑stealing forms or specific payloads has been observed. Defenders should add the IP address 5.189.161.88 and the domain musk2trump.com to web filtering and DNS sinkhole rules, monitor outbound traffic for connections to the identified host, and ensure that endpoint protection solutions are updated to recognize the single VirusTotal detection. Given the lack of TLS protection and the presence of a known phishing kit, blocking the domain at the perimeter and educating users about unsolicited crypto giveaways that claim affiliation with Coinbase are recommended mitigation steps.
