Confidence

Our analysis confirms this site is a clone of Carrefour's real 'Grand Prix de l'innovation' consumer voting campaign. The page title and layout match Carrefour's legitimate event pages hosted at carrefour.fr and communaute.carrefour.fr, but this fake version uses a constructed subdomain (brand.grand-prix-innovation-carrefour-2026.fr) with a future year to appear official. No official Carrefour announcement or page references a 2026 edition or any separate branded domain like this one. The domain has no business registration in France, no contact information, and does not appear in any web search results, news articles, or Carrefour communications. Our fingerprint analysis detected this as a clone of carrefour.fr. A related variant domain (grand-prix-innovation-carrefour-2025.fr) appears in domain directories, suggesting a pattern of similar constructed impersonation domains. The clean antivirus scan and valid SSL certificate are typical of credential-harvesting clones designed to look legitimate during the initial visit.

Full dossier

Analysis complete

Page Content

The page displays a professional-looking Carrefour innovation competition portal with a structured agenda (May–November 2026), product categories, and a login prompt. The title and layout closely mirror Carrefour's real 'Grand Prix de l'innovation' event pages. However, no contact email, phone, postal address, or social links are present — a red flag for a legitimate corporate event site.

Infrastructure

The domain is hosted on AWS (IP 15.237.146.27) with a valid Amazon SSL certificate expiring in 135 days. The hosting IP has zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score. These technical signals are consistent with a professionally set-up phishing clone rather than a hastily deployed scam.

Domain History

WHOIS data is unavailable, preventing verification of registration date and registrant details. The domain does not appear in any web search results, news articles, or official Carrefour communications. A related variant (grand-prix-innovation-carrefour-2025.fr) exists in domain directories, indicating a pattern of similar constructed domains designed to impersonate the real event.

Web Reputation

Zero scam reports, complaints, or positive reviews were found. The domain is not indexed by global traffic rankings and has no legitimate operational footprint. Carrefour's official event pages are hosted directly on carrefour.fr or communaute.carrefour.fr; no separate branded domains like this one are referenced in any official communications.

Risk Factors

Completely absent from web search results, news articles, and official Carrefour communications.

Related variant domain (grand-prix-innovation-carrefour-2025.fr) exists, suggesting a pattern of similar impersonation domains.
WHOIS data unavailable, preventing verification of registrant identity and registration date.

Positive Signals

Hosting IP (15.237.146.27) has zero abuse reports and clean reputation.
Antivirus network: 0/92 engines flagged as malicious; clean sandbox result.

Professional page design with structured layout and polished branding.

AI Recommendation

Do not log in or enter any personal information on this site. Visit the official Carrefour event pages at carrefour.fr or communaute.carrefour.fr to verify any legitimate competition details. Report this domain to Carrefour's security team and to your browser's phishing-report mechanism.

Possible brand impersonation

This page is styled as a known brand but is not the brand's real site.

Treat brand.grand-prix-innovation-carrefour-2026.fr as unverified
Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.
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.
Report 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.
