PhishDestroy added uphold-careers.com to its blocklist after an intake check flagged it for a Google Safe Browsing social‑engineering warning. The domain was first observed by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-22, returning an HTTP 200 response.
How the scam works
The detections associated with the site indicate a social‑engineering risk, which generally attempts to trick users into revealing credentials or personal data by mimicking a trusted brand. No specific malicious behavior was observed on the captured page.
Evidence
VirusTotal recorded eight malicious detections from 92 scanning engines on 2026-10-19, including AlphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Emsisoft, Fortinet, Google Safe Browsing, Lionic, Netcraft and Webroot. Google Safe Browsing flagged the domain as SOCIAL_ENGINEERING on 2026-10-22. urlscan.io captured the site on 2026-10-21 and assigned a malicious verdict with a phishing category and an Uphold brand tag. PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist contains the domain as of 2026-10-22. External blocklists checked on that date returned no additional listings. OTX reported zero pulses on 2026-10-22.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-10-15 through Ultahost, Inc., giving it a five‑day age at the time of capture. DNS records observed on 2026-10-16 listed an A record pointing to 95.169.180.51, which was identified as part of the Keyweb AG IP Network in the United States. The site presented a TLS 1.3 connection using a Let’s Encrypt certificate issued on 2026-10-15 and valid until 2027-01-13. Nameservers ns1‑ns4.ultahost.com and MX records for uphold-careers.com and mail.uphold-careers.com were recorded.
What to do
Do not enter any credentials or personal information on the site; if you have, change your passwords and enable two‑factor authentication. Report the incident to Uphold’s abuse channel and to your organization’s security team. Defenders should add the domain to blocklists, monitor DNS queries for it, and review logs for any connections to the recorded address.

After a phishing incident
针对受害者的建议与指导
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
我应该立即采取什么措施？
紧急
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
更改所有密码 — 电子邮件、Exchange 账户，以及任何使用同一密码的账户
启用双因素认证 使用身份验证器应用（而非短信）。禁用基于短信的恢复功能
冻结卡片 如果您在钓鱼网站上输入了银行信息
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
