Is schuab-charlesschuab.us legit or a scam?
A deceptive Charles Schwab impersonation site flagged for phishing by ten security engines and using a suspicious, non-official domain name.
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.

MT Intelligence
The domain name is a clear attempt at brand impersonation, using a misspelled and hyphenated version of the official company name. Ten different antivirus engines, including BitDefender, Fortinet, and G-Data, have explicitly flagged this URL as a phishing threat. The page content clones the official branding and layout to trick users into thinking they are on a legitimate login portal. Furthermore, the site lacks any verifiable business registration or official contact information, which is a major red flag for a financial services provider. The use of a recently issued certificate from a free provider is also common among temporary phishing setups.
