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-signature.pages.dev legit or a scam?
Newly registered pages.dev domain clones Remix IDE and MetaMask to trick users into connecting wallets for smart-contract drains.
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, which is a high-risk pattern often used to trick users into deploying malicious smart contracts that steal funds.
What our vision model saw
5 signalsInterface is a direct visual clone of the Remix Ethereum IDE layout and iconography.
Generic 'CODE COMPILER' branding replaces the official Remix project identity.
Suspicious 'SECURE' badge in the top right header is an invented trust indicator not present in the original IDE.
The use of a generic name and cloned interface is a common pattern for malicious smart contract 'liquidity front-run' or 'sandwich bot' scams.
The README.sol file contains generic marketing text instead of standard technical documentation.
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-signature.pages.dev was registered today and carries no business registration or contact details. Our antivirus network flagged the page as phishing through Forcepoint ThreatSeeker. Visual analysis confirms the interface is a direct copy of remix.ethereum.org with a fabricated 'CODE COMPILER' header and an invented 'SECURE' badge. The page explicitly prompts users to connect MetaMask, matching the credential-harvest pattern seen on other flagged domains such as gateway-switch.pages.dev. Two independent scam reports already link the same 'CODE COMPILER' title and pages.dev hosting to wallet-draining activity. These signals together indicate the site exists to steal cryptocurrency rather than provide legitimate development tools.

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-signature.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

- 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.
