Investigation Brief

This Blogger-hosted page displays prominent Bank of America logos and headers alongside a 2018 post titled 'Redirection en HTML'. VirusTotal reports 10 malicious detections (mostly phishing) from 92 engines including Bitdefender, Kaspersky and Sophos, while Google Safe Browsing returns no flag. No credential forms or active downloads observed on the captured page.

What the site appears to do

The page is a French-language Blogger blog titled BANK OF AMERICA. It contains a search form, archive links, a single 2018 post about HTML redirection, and footer links to Blogger and a photographer. External domains are limited to standard Blogger/Google resources.

Strongest evidence and limitations

Strongest signals are the 10 AV phishing detections and explicit Bank of America branding on a non-official domain. Limitations include an old 2018 post date, absence of observed credential harvesting or downloads, clean Safe Browsing result, and neutral IP reputation on Google infrastructure.

Practical user impact

Visiting carries risk of future phishing or redirection attempts due to brand impersonation. Avoid entering any credentials or following links; the site is not affiliated with Bank of America.

Why the score is 18

8 independent antivirus familyies reported an adverse result. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

08 · 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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com a scam or a legit website?
bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com is a dangerous phishing & impersonation — do not enter your login or personal details. Our review tagged it for phishing-impersonation. 10 of 92 security engines flag it (10 as outright malicious). The domain is an unknown age. This pattern matches throwaway sites built to take money or data and disappear.
Is bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com safe to use?
No — bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com has a Safety Score of 18/100 (Dangerous) because decisive threat evidence was saved with this scan. Leave the site and do not log in, pay, download anything, or connect a wallet.
I already paid or entered my details on bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com — what should I do?
If you've already paid or handed over details on bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com, 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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com 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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com?
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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com steal my password or personal information?
If you entered anything on bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com, 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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com?
You can report bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com 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.
bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com looks professional — how can it still be 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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com been flagged by antivirus engines?
Yes. 10 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com, 10 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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com 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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com domain?
bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com 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.
Where is bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com hosted?
bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com resolves to an IP operated by Google LLC in US (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
How often is the bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on July 31, 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 bankofamerica-security.blogspot.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
