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.

Confidence
The domain metqmask-wallet.gitbook.io is a credential-harvesting phishing page designed to steal MetaMask wallet credentials. Six major antivirus engines—alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CyRadar, Emsisoft, and ESET—all flag it as phishing. The attacker exploits GitBook's legitimate hosting to appear credible while the subdomain name closely mimics 'MetaMask'. The page has zero global traffic ranking and no legitimate business presence, consistent with a newly-deployed phishing campaign. The SSL certificate is valid but recent (59 days to expiry), a common tactic to bypass initial trust checks. The hosting IP shows no abuse history, suggesting the attacker chose a clean IP to evade reputation filters.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page is hosted on a GitBook subdomain, a legitimate documentation platform. Attackers abuse free hosting services to gain SSL certificates and initial trust. The subdomain name 'metqmask-wallet' is a homoglyph variant designed to confuse users into thinking they are accessing the real MetaMask wallet interface.

Infrastructure

Hosted on IP 172.64.147.209 with valid SSL from Google Trust Services. The IP has zero abuse score but only 3 historical abuse reports, suggesting it was recently provisioned or rotated. GitBook's infrastructure is legitimate, but the attacker is abusing it as a free phishing host.

Domain History

WHOIS data is unavailable, which is typical for GitBook subdomains (they do not expose individual subdomain registration details). The SSL certificate expires in 59 days, indicating a recent deployment. No global traffic ranking, confirming this is a low-visibility phishing page.

Web Reputation

Six antivirus engines flag this as phishing. Browser blocklists are currently clean, likely because the page is too new to be indexed by major blocklists. Our sandbox did not flag it, suggesting the page itself does not deliver malware—its purpose is credential theft, not code execution.
