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.

Brand impersonation — not the real site

Domain was registered only 2 days ago — brand-new sites are higher-risk by default. This page is styled as a brand but is not the brand's real site. Go to the official site directly, and treat any download, login, or payment request here as unsafe.

Confidence
The domain was registered only 2 days ago and uses a classic typosquatting pattern by combining the 'Trust Wallet' brand with 'back-up' and 'web3' keywords. Our intelligence stack has already linked this specific domain to a known network that clones trustwallet.com to steal seed phrases. Although the page currently displays a default Hostinger parking screen, this is a common tactic used by attackers to bypass initial security scans before activating a phishing kit. Fortinet has already flagged the domain as a threat, and the hosting IP carries multiple abuse reports for similar fraudulent activity.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site currently displays a standard 'Parked Domain' page from Hostinger. This is often a temporary state for malicious domains before they launch a full phishing interface or a 'Crypto Drainer' script.

Infrastructure

  • The domain is hosted on IP 2.57.91.91, which has 21 active abuse reports for malicious behavior.
  • It uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, a common choice for short-lived scam sites seeking to appear secure.

Domain History

Registered on July 2026, the domain is only 2 days old. This extreme recency is a primary indicator of a 'burnable' phishing domain intended for a single campaign.

Web Reputation

Fortinet has already blacklisted the site. Our internal fingerprinting confirms this domain is a direct typosquat of the official Trust Wallet brand, specifically targeting users looking for wallet recovery or Web3 support.

Risk Factors
5
  • Domain is only 2 days old.
  • Typosquatting of the official Trust Wallet brand.
  • Fortinet has flagged the domain as malicious.
  • Hosting IP (2.57.91.91) has a history of abuse reports.
  • Identified as part of a known phishing clone network.
Positive Signals
1
  • Uses a valid SSL certificate.
AI Recommendation
Avoid this website entirely. Never enter your 12-word recovery phrase or private keys into any website claiming to be a 'backup' or 'Web3' verification service.

Key findings
6 headline facts from open-web research
  • Domain registered approximately 2 days ago (as of July 2026).

  • No search results for the exact domain in scam reports, reviews, Reddit discussions, or complaints.
  • Trust Wallet officially warns against fake websites and phishing that mimic their branding to steal seed phrases; they never request recovery phrases via email or unofficial sites.

Typosquat of trustwallet.com

Research summary
Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above
Our research confirms this domain is a typosquat of trustwallet.com. While no public scam reports have been filed on Reddit or independent review sites yet, the domain name follows a documented pattern used in crypto-recovery scams. Official Trust Wallet documentation explicitly warns that they never use third-party 'back-up' domains to request recovery phrases.

Brand impersonation detected

This page is styled as a known brand but is not the brand's real site.

  • Do not interact with trustwallet-back-up-web3.com

    Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.

  • Go to the brand's real site directly

    Type the brand name into a search engine or open it from your bookmarks — don't use links from emails, SMS, ads, or social posts, which are the delivery vectors for impersonation.

  • Never download or sign in here

    Even if the page "just" offers a download or a giveaway, impersonation pages frequently deliver malware or set up follow-up phishing. Assume anything accepted from this site is hostile.

  • Report the impersonation to the brand

    Most major brands have a dedicated abuse or anti-phishing reporting channel — reporting helps them take the site down and protects other users.

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • trustwallet-back-up-web3.com resolves to an IP operated by Hostinger International Limited in CY (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
