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 launch-flarefoundation.live was registered on 2026-07-11, meaning it is literally hours old. Six security engines including BitDefender, ESET, Fortinet, Emsisoft, Forcepoint and ChainPatrol all classify the page as phishing. The site uses a valid SSL certificate from Google Trust Services, but that is trivial to obtain and does not indicate legitimacy. No traffic ranking exists and the hosting IP shows minimal abuse history, yet the combination of extreme youth and multiple phishing detections is decisive. The name itself closely mimics the real Flare Foundation, a common tactic in credential-harvesting campaigns. These signals together point to an active phishing operation rather than a legitimate launch page.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The URL directly targets the Flare Foundation brand. No further page text was captured, but the domain name alone is crafted to impersonate an official project site.

Infrastructure

The site sits behind Cloudflare IP 104.21.65.19 with a clean abuse score of 0/100. SSL is issued by Google Trust Services and remains valid for 89 days. No redirects occur and the connection is direct.

Domain History

The domain is zero days old, registered on 2026-07-11 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. No prior history or ownership records exist.

Web Reputation

No traffic index or aggregator scores are available. The complete absence of any established presence combined with immediate malicious detections is typical of throwaway phishing domains.

What this means for you

Do not visit the site or enter any credentials. The combination of a brand-new domain and multiple confirmed phishing flags makes this a clear malicious campaign.

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • launch-flarefoundation.live is a high-risk scam site — avoid interacting with it. Our review tagged it for phishing. 12 of 92 security engines flag it (12 as outright malicious). The domain is only 0 days old through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED — a fresh registration is a classic scam fingerprint. This pattern matches throwaway sites built to take money or data and disappear.
  • No — launch-flarefoundation.live scored just 1/100 on our trust scale, and we detected active threat indicators. We recommend avoiding it entirely: don't log in, pay, download anything, or connect a wallet.
  • If you've already paid or handed over details on launch-flarefoundation.live, 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 launch-flarefoundation.live 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.
  • 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.
  • Just viewing a scam page is usually low-risk on an up-to-date browser — the real danger is what it asks you to DO (enter details, download a file, send money). If you downloaded anything, run a full antivirus scan and treat the file as untrusted. If you entered a password or card number, change the password everywhere you reused it and contact your bank.
  • You can report launch-flarefoundation.live 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.
  • 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.
  • Yes. 12 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged launch-flarefoundation.live, 12 of them as outright malicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
  • No — launch-flarefoundation.live 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.
  • launch-flarefoundation.live is 0 days old, registered on July 11, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. Scam sites are very often freshly registered and short-lived, so an age under six months is a reason for extra caution.
  • launch-flarefoundation.live resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. 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.
  • This report is a record of the scan run on July 11, 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 launch-flarefoundation.live has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
