Overall Summary
Suspicious
Why we think so

Quick verdict: ⚠️ cointech.top looks suspicious. The site shows essentially no measurable traffic, contact links scraped from the site point to unrelated or low-quality accounts (e.g., laundry equipment, unrelated GitHub handle), and WHOIS data is privacy-protected with a China-based registrar and an IP in China. There are no authoritative scam blacklists or Google Safe Browsing flags, but the mix of mismatched public profiles, missing contact information, and absent third-party reputation evidence justify caution. If you plan to interact financially, treat the site as high-risk until you can verify ownership and real business operations.

Risk Insights

⚠️

Contact inconsistency is a strong trust signal

Social/profile links scraped from the site point to unrelated businesses and accounts.
No validated business email or phone number was found in scraper output.
Unreliable contact data is common in scam sites that reuse templates or placeholder links.
🛡️

No detectable traffic or reputation

SimilarWeb shows zero visits across recent months.
Lack of traffic combined with no third-party reviews increases fraud risk for financial services.

Contradictory Signals

Technical safety scans are clean, but absence of blacklist entries does not override strong trust/identity concerns from inconsistent contacts and zero traffic.

Signal A: No blacklist/GSB flags

Signal B: Multiple reputation and contact red flags

Red Flags & Warnings

  • Scraped contact links are inconsistent or point to unrelated businesses and accounts, undermining trust in ownership claims.
  • Zero reported visits in SimilarWeb for recent months — no visible user base or traction.
  • WHOIS details are privacy-protected and registrant contact is redacted, making independent verification difficult.
  • Site analytics/traffic data unavailable from common providers, increasing uncertainty about legitimacy.

🔎 Detailed Checks & Analysis

WHOIS & registrant clarity

Score: 40/100
Failed

"The domain was created in 2016 and uses Alibaba Cloud (HiChina) as registrar, but registrant fields are privacy-protected which prevents independent verification of the operator."

Reason: Registrant data is redacted and ownership is not verifiable from public WHOIS records.

Traffic & engagement (SimilarWeb / traffic stats)

Score: 10/100
Failed

"No measurable visits in the last sampled months and website traffic stats API returned 'data not available', indicating either very low usage or measurement issues."

Reason: SimilarWeb shows zero visits and traffic services returned no usable data.

Contact info and social profiles

Score: 15/100
Failed

"Scraper found links to unrelated Facebook and GitHub accounts and a CoinFlip Twitter handle; no clear company email or validated phone number was found on the site."

Reason: Publicly scraped contacts are inconsistent or unrelated to a coherent business identity.

Blacklist & malware checks

Score: 70/100
Passed

"While no active blacklists or Safe Browsing blocks were detected, these checks do not guarantee legitimacy—just absence of currently flagged malware/phishing."

Reason: No matches on the checked crypto blacklist and Google Safe Browsing returned no threats.

Trademark / brand impersonation risk

Score: 35/100
Failed

"Searches returned unrelated 'Coin Tech' businesses and a news article warning about a differently named 'Emirate Coin Tech' scam, which heightens the risk of brand confusion."

Reason: No USPTO trademark matches for the exact domain; news results show similarly named entities, increasing impersonation risk.

Technical: DNS / Hosting

Score: 50/100
Failed

"A-record points to 47.101.68.213 and NS records are dns9.hichina.com / dns10.hichina.com; TLS/SSL records were not present in the evidence set."

Reason: DNS resolves to an IP in China and name servers are HiChina; configuration is typical but offers limited traceability.

Your Next Steps

  • 1
    Do not send money or crypto to cointech.top until you verify ownership and business registration.
  • 2
    Check the site for verifiable company information (business registration, billing address, official regulatory filings) and confirm phone/email by calling or emailing through independent directory listings.
  • 3
    Search for independent user reviews or complaints (consumer forums, Reddit, scam trackers) and ask for transaction screenshots or proof of on-chain receipts if someone asks you to deposit funds.
  • 4
    If you already lost funds, collect transaction details and report to your local consumer protection agency (FTC/DFPI) and to any crypto exchange/wallet provider you used.
  • 5
    Record and preserve all communications and payment records — they will help investigators or your bank in a dispute.
