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.

The domain io-moonpaycdn.wixstudio.com is a typosquat and direct clone of moonpay.com, designed to deceive users into entering cryptocurrency wallet credentials. Our antivirus network flagged it as malicious (alphaMountain.ai, ChainPatrol) and phishing (Forcepoint ThreatSeeker), and it appears in multiple phishing-report databases. The page title mimics MoonPay's branding with repeated ® symbols, and the content promotes fake crypto trading and wallet login prompts. Our scam-network fingerprint confirms this is part of a broader abuse pattern — multiple similar MoonPay-themed Wix subdomains (homes-moonpaycdn.wixstudio.com, apps-moonpaycdn.wixstudio.com, ssomymoonpaycdn.wixstudio.com) are flagged in phishing trackers and spam lists. No legitimate business registration exists for this subdomain, and the official MoonPay site is moonpay.com only. The hosting IP has 19 abuse reports on record.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page impersonates MoonPay's login interface with page titles reading 'Login | MoonPay®®® - Wix Studio' and descriptions promoting 'MoonPay login', 'crypto trading, wallet services'. The repeated trademark symbols and credential-prompt design are hallmarks of credential-harvesting phishing pages.

Infrastructure

Hosted on a free Wix Studio subdomain (wixstudio.com), which is commonly abused for phishing campaigns. The domain uses valid SSL (Let's Encrypt, 46 days to expiry) to appear legitimate. Hosting IP 34.144.206.118 has an abuse score of 15/100 with 19 reported abuse incidents.

Domain History

The domain is 3463 days old (registered via GoDaddy), but the subdomain structure and content are recent phishing deployments. The typosquat pattern (io-moonpaycdn vs. moonpay) is deliberate — designed to confuse users searching for the legitimate service.

Web Reputation

Flagged by alphaMountain.ai and ChainPatrol as malicious, and by Forcepoint ThreatSeeker as phishing. Listed in urlquery.net malware/phishing scan reports and phishstats.info phishing databases. No positive reviews or legitimate business presence found. Official MoonPay has no affiliation with any wixstudio.com subdomain.

Brand impersonation detected

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

  • Do not interact with io-moonpaycdn.wixstudio.com

    Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.

  • 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.

  • Yes. io-moonpaycdn.wixstudio.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R13, expiring in 46 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
