Fake Banco Santander login page on a two-day-old unrelated domain collects an employee number and 4-digit PIN
santander.nfcobsidian.com is a Spanish-language page carrying the Banco Santander logo and a '© 2026 Banco Santander' footer, but it is served from a subdomain of nfcobsidian.com, a domain registered only two days before our review. Its only function is a sign-in form asking for a 'Número de empleado' and a 4-digit PIN, submitted with an 'Iniciar sesión' button. The pretext — an 'online demagnetizer' that fixes a card's chip or magnetic stripe through the phone's NFC sensor after login — is not a real banking service. Multiple antivirus engines also flag the host as phishing. This is a credential-harvesting page, so the score sits at the bottom of the scale.

Why 8/100
Dangerous covers scores 1–20. 6 findings pulled the score down; 2 pushed it up.
What pulled the score down
- Decisive8 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing.
- ModerateThe page displays the Banco Santander logo, an 'Sobre Banco Santander' section and a '© 2026 Banco Santander' footer while being served from santander.nfcobsidian.com, a domain Santander does not own.
- ModerateThe page's only function is a form capturing an employee number and a 4-digit PIN, submitted with 'Iniciar sesión'.
- ModerateThe page claims an 'online demagnetizer' repairs a card's chip or magnetic stripe via an NFC 'neutralization signal' after login — an invented story used to justify the credential step.
- MinorThe parent domain nfcobsidian.com was registered two days before our review.
- MinorNo contact email, phone, address or registration ID appears on the captured page.
What pushed the score up
- SupportsThe saved TLS check found a valid encrypted connection, which says nothing about the operator's legitimacy.
- SupportsThe browser threat feed returned no threat warning for the host at check time.

Lost money or shared details on santander.nfcobsidian.com? Do this now
Act quickly: the first hours matter most for a chargeback.
- Call your bank or card issuer now
Ask them to dispute the charge or open a chargeback; the sooner you act, the better your odds. Card payments can often be reversed. Bank transfers and gift cards are harder, but report them to your bank too. Crypto payments usually cannot be reversed: report the wallet address and transaction ID to the exchange you sent from.
- Change any password you entered
If you entered a password on santander.nfcobsidian.com, change it there and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. Keep screenshots, order confirmations and messages as evidence.
- Report the site
Reports help get scam sites taken down faster and warn other people.
- Report the domain to its registrar
NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED takes abuse reports at abuse@nicenic.net (+852.68581004). Include the address and what happened.
- Ignore anyone offering to recover your money
"Recovery" services or agents who contact you, or ask for a fee up front, are almost always a second scam aimed at victims. Your bank's dispute process and the official reporting services never charge a fee in advance.

01 · Investigation Brief
Investigation Brief
santander.nfcobsidian.com is a Spanish-language page carrying the Banco Santander logo and a '© 2026 Banco Santander' footer, but it is served from a subdomain of nfcobsidian.com, a domain registered only two days before our review. Its only function is a sign-in form asking for a 'Número de empleado' and a 4-digit PIN, submitted with an 'Iniciar sesión' button. The pretext — an 'online demagnetizer' that fixes a card's chip or magnetic stripe through the phone's NFC sensor after login — is not a real banking service. Multiple antivirus engines also flag the host as phishing. This is a credential-harvesting page, so the score sits at the bottom of the scale.
Santander branding on a domain Santander does not own
The page shows the red Banco Santander logo with its flame mark at the top, an 'Sobre Banco Santander' section and a '© 2026 Banco Santander' footer. The address bar, however, reads santander.nfcobsidian.com — a subdomain of nfcobsidian.com, which the registry shows as two days old at the time of our review. No Santander-owned domain is involved anywhere in the flow.
The service menu and footer links — 'Límite diario de la tarjeta', 'Sus datos personales', 'Aviso legal' and the rest — are dead '#' placeholders, so none of the genuine Santander help or legal pages can actually be reached from here. The page also lists no contact email, phone, address or registration ID, leaving no way to identify who runs it.
The only thing the page does is take a login and PIN
The single interactive element is a credential form: a text field labelled 'Número de empleado' with the placeholder 'Ex. K7M2QX', four single-digit password boxes under 'Introduzca su código de 4 dígitos', and an 'Iniciar sesión' button. There is no product, payment or account-management function anywhere on the page.
The story used to justify the login is fabricated: the page claims an 'online demagnetizer' corrects magnetic interference on a card's chip or magnetic stripe and that, after signing in, the phone emits a 'neutralization signal' through its NFC sensor. No bank repairs a card this way, and the explanation exists only to get a visitor to type credentials into a form on a non-bank domain.
Clean encryption and a quiet Safe Browsing result do not make this safe
The connection is encrypted with a valid certificate and the browser threat feed returned no warning at check time. Neither says anything about who operates the page: a phishing form can sit behind a perfectly valid certificate, and the hosting IP simply has no recorded abuse reports yet.
Independent antivirus engines tell a different story, with eight families returning adverse results and categorisations pointing to phishing and newly registered sites. Combined with the two-day-old domain and the brand impersonation, the technical picture matches the page content rather than contradicting it.
Why the score is 8
8 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing.
