Is metamask-simple-guide-for-new-users.blogspot.md legit or a scam?
Phishing site impersonating MetaMask using a fake Blogspot domain; flagged by six antivirus engines including BitDefender and ChainPatrol.

MT Intelligence
The domain metamask-simple-guide-for-new-users.blogspot.md is a credential-harvesting clone designed to trick users into thinking they're on an official MetaMask resource. Six antivirus engines—ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, ChainPatrol, Chong Lua Dao, and CRDF—flag it as malicious or phishing. The page title is 'metamask download' and the body text impersonates MetaMask's official branding and messaging, instructing users to 'download MetaMask from the official site' while the page itself IS the fake site. The domain uses a .md TLD (Moldova) with a Blogspot subdomain structure, a common phishing tactic. No legitimate contact information, business registration, or verifiable ownership exists. The hosting IP shows six abuse reports, reinforcing the malicious classification.
