Is tidua-coinbase.com legit or a scam?
This one-day-old Coinbase impersonation site uses a fake connection-check screen to harvest user credentials and drain cryptocurrency wallets.
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 was registered just one day ago, which is a primary indicator of a disposable phishing campaign. Our analysis confirmed it is a typosquatting domain designed to look like the official Coinbase brand. Multiple security partners, including Kaspersky, Fortinet, and LevelBlue, have already blacklisted the URL for phishing and spam. The page content uses a 'Checking your connection' lure, a common tactic to bypass automated scanners and build false trust before presenting a fake login form. Furthermore, the hosting IP address has a history of abuse reports, suggesting it is part of a wider malicious network.
