coinw.diy is a phishing site that presented itself under the page title "CoinW", copying the branding of the CoinW cryptocurrency exchange to trick its customers. The odd "diy" ending is the main giveaway, because the brand name itself looks legitimate at a glance. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-19. The site went offline on 2026-09-22, and as of 2026-10-19 its DNS no longer resolves.
How the scam works
Exchange impersonation pages copy the real login screen so that visitors type in their email, password and two-factor codes. Those details are relayed to the operators, who log into the real account and withdraw the balance before the victim notices. Some clones of this kind also show fake deposit addresses or demand an "unlock" or "withdrawal fee", and any money sent that way goes straight to the scammers. The result is a hijacked exchange account and crypto that cannot be recovered.
Evidence
On 2026-09-21, 17 of 89 VirusTotal engines classed the domain as malicious. Those engines included BitDefender, Fortinet, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, G-Data, Emsisoft, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF and CyRadar. That is broad agreement among unrelated vendors within two days of our first sighting. The domain is also listed by MetaMask and SEAL alongside PhishDestroy, so wallet users and the crypto security community already treat it as hostile.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2025-09-21 through Gname.com Pte. Ltd., almost a full year before it surfaced as an active phishing page. That gap points to a name bought ahead of time and held until it was needed. Traffic was served through Cloudflare, Inc. with a Canadian geolocation, which keeps the true origin server out of view. Its short active life, about three days after detection, is typical of throwaway exchange clones.
What to do
If you entered CoinW credentials on this site, change your CoinW password right away and reset your two-factor authentication. Review recent logins, API keys and withdrawal-address whitelists for anything you did not set up. If you sent a deposit or paid a "fee" there, contact CoinW support and report it to local authorities, and never send more money to recover funds. Use the same password anywhere else? Change it there too. Defenders should block coinw.diy and watch for lookalike CoinW domains on unusual extensions, since operators tend to reuse the same template.

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

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.

联邦调查局（FBI）指南
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
当地警方 — 即使无法立即采取行动，也能留下正式记录
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
虚假网站 — 与正规网站完全一致的克隆网站，仅域名略有改动
猪的屠宰 — 通过Telegram/WhatsApp/交友软件花数周时间建立信任，随后钱被骗走
退款诈骗 — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
