entrust.best was a phishing page that presented itself as Entrust, a company known for digital identity, authentication and certificate services. Its page title read simply "Entrust," so anyone landing on it saw the brand name they expected. The likely targets were people who use Entrust-branded logins or verification at work or with their bank. PhishDestroy first saw it on 2026-09-07, and it went offline on 2026-09-14. As of 2026-10-19, its DNS no longer resolves.
How the scam works
Impersonation pages like this copy the name and look of a trusted security brand. They then ask the visitor to sign in, verify an identity or confirm an authentication code. Because Entrust is associated with identity protection, a request to log in or re-verify feels routine rather than suspicious. Anything typed into the page goes to the operators. That can include usernames, passwords, one-time codes or personal details, which they can use to take over accounts. The ".best" ending, rather than the brand's own domain, is the giveaway a careful visitor could have caught.
Evidence
On 2026-09-12, 6 of 89 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar and VIPRE. That is a modest count, but these vendors work independently of one another and of PhishDestroy. The domain also appears in 4 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, which means other researchers tracked it too. Among blocklists, only PhishDestroy lists it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Namecheap on 2026-08-15. It was hosted on a Namecheap, Inc. network in the US. It ran for 23 days before PhishDestroy flagged it and stayed up only a week after that, a short lifespan typical of disposable phishing domains. The free Let's Encrypt certificate gave the page a padlock icon, which shows only that the connection was encrypted, not that the site was really Entrust.
What to do
If you entered a password on entrust.best, change it right away on the real service and anywhere else you reused it. Then review recent sign-ins and active sessions for anything you don't recognize. If you submitted a one-time code or approved a login prompt from this page, reset or re-enroll your second factor and alert your IT or security team. Defenders should search proxy and DNS logs for contact with this domain between 2026-08-15 and 2026-09-14 and treat any affected accounts as potentially compromised. They should also watch for new lookalike domains that use the Entrust name with unusual endings.

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.

我应该为报告收集哪些信息？
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
