TKN75qbyDMP5dUDxK1V3dTPw1vk5QgmYfcOpen-Source Intelligence Analysis: Preliminary Findings on Fraudulent Activities Associated with circlesquare-site.com
Current Website:
The website under investigation is circlesquare-site.com, which presents itself as a platform offering job opportunities. However, it is involved in fraudulent activities, where victims are encouraged to make payments for supposed investments or job-related services that do not exist. After victims send payments, their funds are seized, and they are no longer able to access them. The site misleads individuals by offering false guarantees of financial returns, making it appear like a legitimate platform for investment or employment.Domain and Hosting Information:
Registrar: Gname.com Pte. Ltd.
Registered On: May 21, 2024
Expires On: May 21, 2025
Updated On: May 21, 2024
Status: clientTransferProhibited
Nameservers: ns1.dns.com, ns2.dns.comTechnical Analysis:
Frameworks: The website uses standard frameworks to create a legitimate-looking user interface, which is designed to deceive victims.
Hosting Information: The website is hosted using common DNS services that help mask its origin, adding another layer of opacity to the operation.
Document Standards: HTML5 and UTF-8 encoding are employed to ensure compatibility across modern browsers.Key Observations:
The fraudulent website uses a generic layout and unreliable technical measures to pose as a legitimate job or investment site. The involvement of Gname.com Pte. Ltd. as the registrar, alongside DNS servers hosted by dns.com, suggests that the fraudsters may be utilizing anonymous hosting services to mask their identities and avoid detection.Recommendations:
Gname.com Pte. Ltd.: A subpoena should be issued to obtain more detailed information about the registration and ownership of the domain.
DNS.com: Investigate the server details to identify any patterns of malicious hosting activity.
Blockchain Forensics: Use blockchain tracing tools to monitor the movement of funds associated with the listed wallet IDs to potentially link the scam to other fraudulent operations.Conclusion:
The fraudulent activities conducted via circlesquare-site.com represent a classic example of a fake job scam designed to deceive individuals into sending cryptocurrency payments under the guise of investment or employment opportunities. Victims are often left with no recourse once their funds are seized. Tracking the domain ownership and hosting details, as well as performing blockchain forensics, could help expose the perpetrators and prevent further damage.
