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.

Confidence
The site is a direct imitation of the legitimate Blockchain.com platform, using its branding and layout to deceive users. Our antivirus network shows a high consensus of 19 different engines, including BitDefender, ESET, and Fortinet, all marking the page as a phishing threat. Major browser blocklists have also flagged the URL for social engineering. While the domain itself is several years old, it is hosted on a sub-domain of a cloud platform often used to bypass traditional domain reputation filters. The lack of any legitimate contact information or business registration further confirms its malicious intent.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page content is a near-perfect copy of the official Blockchain.com site, featuring sections for wallets, exchanges, and institutional products. However, it lacks functional contact details, physical addresses, or legitimate support channels.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on a sub-domain of cercel.app, which is a common tactic for hosting ephemeral phishing pages. It uses a valid Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to create a false sense of security for the visitor.

Domain History

Although the root domain has existed for over 1,600 days, this specific sub-domain shows no history of legitimate traffic or business activity. It appears to have been recently repurposed for this phishing campaign.

Web Reputation

The reputation is extremely poor across our intelligence stack. With 19 security vendors confirming it as malicious, there is no doubt regarding its purpose as a credential-harvesting tool.
