dot[.]sushi-com[.]bond

Analysis of dot.sushi-com.bond shows a newly registered infrastructure that targets the SushiSwap brand through a crypto‑related impersonation campaign. The domain was created on October 21, 2025 and is registered with Dynadot LLC. It resolves to the IP address 142.251.35.164, which is owned by Google LLC (AS15169) and geographically located in the United States. The hosting arrangement uses Cloudflare nameservers apollo.ns.cloudflare.com and meera.ns.cloudflare.com, but the site lacks an SSL certificate, indicating that any traffic would be unencrypted. The page title returned by the HTTP response is "Google," a generic title that provides no indication of malicious content, and the site is currently offline, suggesting that the operators have taken it down or are in the process of moving infrastructure.

Security telemetry marks the domain on one known blocklist and records a block by PhishDestroy. Reputation scoring from Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100, reflecting a high‑risk assessment. VirusTotal analysis shows that three of ninety‑five scanning engines flagged the domain, reinforcing the suspicion of malicious intent despite the limited detection count. The classified scam type is a crypto scam, and the domain explicitly impersonates SushiSwap, a well‑known decentralized exchange.

Defenders should add dot.sushi-com.bond to deny‑list rules across DNS filtering, proxy, and endpoint protection solutions. Continuous monitoring of the associated IP address and the Cloudflare name servers is advised, as threat actors may reuse the same hosting assets for future campaigns. Given the absence of TLS, any attempt to interact with the domain would expose users to clear‑text data capture. Organizations should also educate users about unsolicited requests referencing SushiSwap and enforce strict verification of URLs before any credential or wallet information is entered.
