Phishing site — do not log in
Flagged on major browser safety blocklists as social engineering. This page looks designed to steal credentials. Don't log in — and if you already did, change the password anywhere you reused it and turn on two-factor authentication.
Is connect-uphold.created.app legit or a scam?
Phishing clone of Uphold crypto platform flagged by multiple engines and confirmed in reports as a credential harvester.
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.
Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The site uses a subdomain that directly impersonates Uphold with a typosquatted name and matching page title. Our antivirus network detected it as phishing through six engines including ESET, Fortinet, and G-Data, while browser blocklists also flagged it for social engineering. The evidence package shows two explicit phishing reports identifying it as a replica designed to steal crypto credentials. Although the domain itself is over two years old, the subdomain structure and clone indicators point to recent malicious use on a hosting platform known for similar fakes. No legitimate business signals or contact details appear on the page, which loads as a JavaScript app mimicking a login flow.
