## Full analysis


### Security Alert

Fortinet, Kaspersky, Sophos flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution.

This website is a single-page, token-promotion site titled as a "Spacecoin Airdrop" that invites visitors to "participate and claim SPACE tokens" under the Penguinbase name. It is served from a free subdomain of a public app-hosting platform rather than from a standalone branded domain. Its apparent purpose is to draw visitors into a cryptocurrency airdrop-claim flow. The captured page carries very little text and no named company, team, product documentation, or contact details.


### Scam/Impersonation Risk

Material contradictions are present, and this assessment is clearly cautionary. Several major security vendors currently flag the site as malicious, and the broader reputation picture amounts to a confirmed blacklist. That outcome is decisive and is not offset by any benign signal found. The "claim free tokens" airdrop framing on the homepage matches a lure pattern commonly used to push visitors toward wallet connections or seed-phrase and credential disclosure, so any claim, connect, or sign step should be treated as a potential asset-loss event. Abuse reports exist against a shared platform address associated with the site. These apply to infrastructure used by many unrelated tenants, so they are discounted and are not counted against the site itself. The sandboxed behavioural runs showed no external data exfiltration, no wallet-drainer activity, no clipboard manipulation, and no cloaking. That shows only that no malicious behaviour was triggered in those sessions. It does not outweigh the independent detections. The page also produced a high volume of browser console errors, which suggests an unfinished or template-built page. No conflicting legal identities and no confirmed brand impersonation were observed. Evidence:

- Homepage: titled as a Spacecoin airdrop with an invitation to claim SPACE tokens, which is the core of the lure risk.
- Reputation: multiple leading security vendors flag the site as malicious, and an external blacklist is confirmed.
- Behavioural sandbox: three successful runs with no external requests, no wallet-provider interaction, no hidden forms, and 30 console errors.
- Abuse reports: 90 reports against a shared platform edge address, attributed to shared infrastructure and discounted.

### Regulatory Verification Notes

The captured homepage discloses no operating company, licence, registration number, jurisdiction, or terms of service. For a site inviting visitors to claim or receive crypto assets, that absence is a verification gap. It is not a contradiction in itself, but it leaves no accountable operator to hold to any claim. The real-world operator identity could not be independently connected to any brand or person, and no third-party broker or regulatory-database match was found. The site's transport encryption is valid, but an entry-level domain-validated certificate shows only control of the hostname. It says nothing about who runs the site. Evidence:

- Homepage: no legal entity, licence number, regulator reference, or terms and privacy pages observed in the captured content.
- Hosting: served from AS16509 (AMAZON-02 - Amazon.com, Inc., US).
- Transport encryption: TLS certificate issued by WR1 (DV validation), valid to 2026-11-27.
- Broker intelligence: no match found in the third-party reputation dataset.

### What to Verify Next

Account login, credential entry, wallet connection, token approvals, and any payment should be treated as unsafe on this site. Anyone who encountered it through a message, social post, or advertisement should trace the promotion back to an official, independently confirmed channel of the claimed project. The official Spacecoin project channels should be checked offline or through a known-good source to see whether any airdrop exists and where it is claimed. The operator identity behind "Penguinbase" should be confirmed against a recognised corporate or token-project registry before any engagement. Any wallet that has already interacted with the site should have its token approvals reviewed and revoked. Evidence:

- Homepage: the claim flow is the only observed call to action, so that is the interaction that needs independent confirmation.
- Hosting model: the site sits on a shared subdomain, so the host platform's abuse channel is the route for reporting it.
- Reputation: current vendor detections mean a later clean rescan should be required before any reassessment.

### Summary Verdict

The site is assessed at an elevated, critical risk level. Confirmed security-vendor detections are decisive, and no legitimacy signal found can offset them. The operator remains unidentified. The posture is cautionary and security-forward, and the site is not suitable for any sensitive interaction.


### Infrastructure Integrity

The site is delivered through CDN edge servers on Amazon-operated address space. All observed addresses are edge nodes, and the origin server was not observable. Traffic is encrypted with a valid certificate from a recognised issuer. These are mitigating factors only. Edge-only visibility prevents independent hosting verification and allows page content to be swapped quickly. Protective infrastructure also cannot offset the reputation risk from the external detections.


### Closing Assessment

The site should not be used for anything beyond passive viewing, and nothing should be connected, signed, or entered on it. Any user who has already interacted should revoke wallet permissions and change exposed credentials without delay.

A trust score summarises the evidence TrustSniffer could collect about penguinbase.vercel.app 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.
