Full analysis
Overview
HOODRAT, presented under the headline "the menace of the Robinhood Chain", is a single-page, crypto-themed promotional website. Its homepage presents a meme-style brand tied to the Robinhood Chain ecosystem. The apparent purpose is to promote a token or community project to retail crypto participants.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
Hard contradictory signals are present. Several independent threat-intelligence engines currently flag the domain as malicious or suspicious, and a separate external reputation source also lists it. This is a confirmed blacklisting and the decisive factor in the assessment. No brand impersonation, conflicting legal identities or confirmed phishing page were established, so the elevated risk comes from the third-party listings, not from a proven spoofed brand. The domain was registered only a few months ago. A brand-new domain that is already listed by multiple security sources and is promoting a speculative crypto theme matches the usual lifecycle of short-lived token-promotion and wallet-targeting campaigns. Behavioural testing of the homepage found heavy outbound activity: almost all observed network traffic went to third-party hosts, including numerous background requests and several outbound data submissions. These were all to recognised destinations, and no wallet-connection prompts, clipboard manipulation, hidden forms or credential-capturing forms were triggered. Repeated browser console errors point to an unpolished or hastily assembled build. These behavioural findings are secondary to the blacklisting and do not by themselves show malicious intent. Evidence:
- Homepage reputation checks: 3 threat-intelligence engines rated the domain malicious and 1 suspicious. An additional external blacklist listing was also recorded.
- Registration record: the domain was created on 2026-07-14 (about 0.28 years old) through the registrar PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, with registration expiring 2027-07-14.
- Homepage behavioural testing: 27 external background requests and 9 external POST submissions, with about 98% of peak activity directed off-domain. No requests went to non-whitelisted destinations, and 9 console errors were logged.
- Homepage interaction tests: no wallet-connect, drainer, clipboard-write or external password-form behaviour was observed across 3 successful runs.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The captured homepage does not present a named legal entity, a licensing or registration statement, or a clearly identified operator. Because the site markets itself around a crypto chain theme, the absence of any such disclosure matters for anyone considering financial interaction. No third-party broker-reputation record matched this domain, so there is no regulatory or broker-level assessment to weigh either way. The presence of a valid certificate and a complete registration record does not establish who operates the site or that it is authorised to offer financial services. The real-world operator identity remains unconfirmed. Evidence:
- Homepage: titled "HOODRAT — the menace of the Robinhood Chain", with no operator name, licence reference or registration number in the reviewed content.
- Transport security: TLS certificate issued by WE1 at DV (domain-validated only) level, valid to 2026-12-10, with 44 days remaining at analysis time. DV validation confirms control of the domain, not the identity of the operator.
- Hosting: served from AS13335 (Cloudflare, Inc., US).
What to Verify Next
Treat the domain as unverified until its operator is established through channels independent of the site. Check whether the token or project is recognised by the official Robinhood Chain ecosystem channels, and whether those channels link to this domain. Search for the project's name in independent crypto-community and scam-reporting sources. Confirm that any social accounts or contract addresses cited by the site are the ones endorsed by the project's official sources, using an offline or separately obtained route and not links from the page. Confirm the official support and contact channels the same way before any exchange of information. Evidence:
- Homepage: the site relies on a meme-style brand and theme, so legitimacy cannot be inferred from the page itself.
- Reputation findings: the current listings by several security sources mean any later clearance should be confirmed by delisting or re-evaluation, not assumed.
- Domain age: the recent registration leaves little independent history to corroborate the project.
Summary Verdict
Available evidence places this website in an elevated-risk category. Current external security listings, combined with a very recent domain and an unestablished operator, outweigh the technical hygiene present. The site should be treated as unsafe for any sensitive or financial interaction.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site is delivered through Cloudflare's CDN and web-application firewall, and every observed address is a CDN edge node. The origin server was not observable, so hosting cannot be independently verified. This also means page content could be swapped rapidly without a visible change in infrastructure. The CDN is a mitigating technical factor only. It cannot offset the reputation risk, and bot-protection behaviour from the edge was noted, which is typical of this setup and not itself suspicious.
Closing Assessment
Interaction should be limited to passive viewing. Wallet connections, account logins, credential entry, token purchases and any transfer of funds should be avoided until the operator is independently verified and the security listings are cleared.

About this assessment
A trust score summarises the evidence TrustSniffer could collect about certifiedshoodrat.com at assessment time. It is a starting point for your own judgement, not a guarantee: a high score means the signals were consistent with a legitimately operated site, a low or critical score means several risk patterns were present.
TrustSniffer assesses a website from the evidence it can collect at a point in time: domain registration and age, hosting and certificate, the content the site served, and third-party reputation feeds. A score is a summary of that evidence, not a guarantee and not a legal finding. There is no human rating and no user review in it. A site can change after it is assessed.
