01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

This is an IPFS service-worker gateway address that serves content by CID. Multiple security vendors classify the specific CID as phishing or fraud, while the browser threat feed shows no warning.

Security detections

Twenty independent antivirus engines flagged the exact CID-based URL as malicious, with many detections labeled phishing or fraud.

A separate scan found 18 out of 91 engines reporting the same URL as phishing or fraud-related.

Gateway behavior and load failure

The page attempted to install a service worker but failed with a TypeError labeled 'Installation Error'.

The domain inbrowser.link is a known public IPFS gateway that routes content-addressed links through service workers.

Why the score is 25

20 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

Your next move

Proceed with caution

Our automated review flagged enough risk that you should treat this site as unverified.

  1. Analyst recommendation

    Do not visit or interact with this URL; treat it as high-risk for phishing or fraud.

  2. Treat bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link as unverified

    Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.

    Check the company's social profiles, registry records, and search for recent news or reviews that are not hosted on the site itself.

  4. Never use irreversible payment methods

    Crypto, gift cards, wire transfers, and cash apps offer zero buyer protection. Use a credit card or PayPal if you must pay.

07 · Safety FAQ

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers reflect the saved verdict and evidence in this report.

Is bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link a scam or a legit website?
bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link shows strong warning signs of being a phishing & impersonation — do not enter your login or personal details. Our review tagged it for phishing. 21 of 91 security engines flag it (20 as outright malicious). The domain is an unknown age. It may not be an outright scam, but the risk is high enough that you should verify it independently before trusting it with money or data.
Is bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link safe to use?
bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link has a Safety Score of 25/100 (High Risk). Analysis coverage is strong at 83%. Avoid login, payment and downloads.
What should I do if I already gave my details to bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link?
If you've already paid or handed over details on bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link, act quickly. 1) Contact your bank or card issuer immediately and ask to dispute the charge or open a chargeback — the sooner you act, the better your odds. 2) Report the site to the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov or the FBI's IC3 at ic3.gov, and in the UK to Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. 3) If you entered a password, change it on bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. 4) Watch your bank and email for follow-up fraud, and keep screenshots as evidence.
Can I get my money back from bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link?
Often yes, if you act fast. Payments made by credit or debit card can frequently be reversed through a chargeback or dispute — contact your bank right away and explain it was a fraudulent site. Bank transfers and gift-card or voucher payments are much harder to recover, but you should still report them to your bank and to the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov) or Action Fraud (actionfraud.police.uk). Avoid any "refund" or "recovery" service that contacts you first — it's usually a follow-up scam.
Did bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link steal my password or personal information?
If you entered anything on bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link, assume it was captured. Phishing pages exist purely to harvest what you type — usernames, passwords, card numbers, or one-time codes. Change the password immediately on the real site and anywhere you reused it, enable two-factor authentication, and if you entered card or banking details, contact your bank about the risk of fraud. Also be alert for follow-up "security" calls or emails that try to exploit the same information.
How do I report bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link?
You can report bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link through several official channels: the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at ic3.gov, and — in the UK — Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. You can also flag it to Google Safe Browsing (safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish) so other browsers warn about it, and report it to the company being impersonated if there is one. Reporting helps get scam sites taken down faster.
Why does bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link look legitimate if it's a scam?
Modern scams are built to look convincing. A valid SSL padlock, a polished template, stock photos, fake reviews, and a trust badge can all be added in minutes and prove nothing about who runs the site. Scammers buy cheap domains, clone real designs, and copy legal pages wholesale. That's exactly why an automated review that checks the domain's age, hosting, blacklists, and behaviour — rather than just how the page looks — is more reliable than a first impression.
Has bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link been flagged by antivirus engines?
Yes. 21 of 91 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link, 20 of them as outright malicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
Is bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.
How old is the bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link domain?
bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link is an unknown age. A multi-year registration history is one of the stronger signals against a scam, though it's never a guarantee on its own — established domains can still be misused.
Does bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YE2, valid for another 32 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".
How often is the bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on September 15, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about bafkreiglpn3437jljvdrwhq3veggfvmsiejrdaaz7m2c2s5tqmhbdcwnl4.ipfs.inbrowser.link has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
