Brand impersonation — not the real site
The page visually clones remix.ethereum.org. This page is styled as a brand but is not the brand's real site. Go to the official site directly, and treat any download, login, or payment request here as unsafe.
Is abi-sign.pages.dev legit or a scam?
Fake Remix IDE clone on a 0-day-old pages.dev domain that prompts MetaMask connections to drain wallets.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

Visual analysis
We capture a fresh screenshot of the live page and ask a vision model to look for scam visual patterns — fake trust badges, countdown timers, overlay pop-ups, and visual clones of legitimate brands.
The page visually mimics remix.ethereum.org
The site is a visual clone of the Remix Ethereum IDE, using a generic name and fake security indicators to potentially deceive users into deploying or interacting with malicious smart contracts.
What our vision model saw
6 signalsVisual clone of the Remix Ethereum IDE interface layout and iconography
Generic 'SECURE' trust badge in the top right corner with a green indicator
Branding 'CODE COMPILER' is generic and does not match the official Remix project
Use of non-standard font rendering and missing character glyphs in the code editor and terminal
Interface mimics a development environment to potentially solicit smart contract interaction or wallet connection
The 'Not connected' status next to a 'SECURE' badge is a common pattern in malicious dApps
Brand Impersonation
medium confidenceThe page mentions or styles itself as MetaMask, but is hosted on a domain that is not an official MetaMask property.
Intelligence
The domain abi-sign.pages.dev was registered today and carries no business registration or contact details. The page visually clones the Remix Ethereum IDE layout while displaying a generic CODE COMPILER title and a fake SECURE badge. It loads MetaMask connection prompts and warns users about pasted code, classic tactics used by crypto drainers. Four separate scam reports already link identical CODE COMPILER pages on the same hosting platform to phishing and wallet-draining activity. The hosting IP shows 23 abuse reports and the broader pages.dev subdomain space has documented widespread abuse for crypto scams. These signals together indicate the site exists to trick developers into connecting wallets and signing malicious transactions.

What to do
Brand impersonation detected
This page is styled as a known brand but is not the brand's real site.
- Do not interact with abi-sign.pages.dev
Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.
- Go to the brand's real site directly
Type the brand name into a search engine or open it from your bookmarks — don't use links from emails, SMS, ads, or social posts, which are the delivery vectors for impersonation.
- Never download or sign in here
Even if the page "just" offers a download or a giveaway, impersonation pages frequently deliver malware or set up follow-up phishing. Assume anything accepted from this site is hostile.
- OpenReport the impersonation to the brand
Most major brands have a dedicated abuse or anti-phishing reporting channel — reporting helps them take the site down and protects other users.
Safer Alternatives
Trying to handle crypto? Use a safe option instead
Dealing with crypto? Use a regulated, well-established exchange rather than an unknown site — and never connect your wallet or enter a seed phrase on a page you can't verify.
Publicly-listed, regulated US exchange.
Long-established, regulated exchange.
Regulated US exchange & custodian.
Suggestions for safety only — not endorsements. Always verify the address bar before signing in or paying, even on well-known sites.
Final Verdict
This is a fake code compiler site impersonating Remix IDE and MetaMask. The domain is brand new, the page is a visual clone, and multiple identical pages.dev sites have already been flagged as wallet drainers.
