Domain was flagged dead on 2026-03-16 06:05:30 UTC but a fresh report was filed on 2026-03-22 16:24:25 UTC — it is back or never truly suspended. Reports filed: 1 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-03-22 16:24:25 UTC Days since first notice: 125 — no registrar action, domain remains online ICANN Compliance CC'd on at least one escalation — non-response is on record. Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies. Per-report timeline: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/9solanascope.com/#coordinated-suppression ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-23 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-23 09:23:15 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-07-26 04:21:16 UTC Flagged dead: 2026-03-16 06:05:30 UTC (SUPERSEDED — fresh report filed after this date, see ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY) Current status: ACTIVE (flagged dead but resurrected — registrar did not act on fresh reports) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c89cd-80ac-726f-b2c0-530c10dc777d/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/19d9bf8b-e548-4c23-a0dc-b85b095823c5 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/9solanascope.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.9solanascope.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=9solanascope.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/9solanascope.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/9solanascope.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-24 04:40:16 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] 9solanascope.com: Confirmed Crypto Scam Analysis of 9solanascope.com, a domain created on February 23, 2026 and currently taken offline, indicates a confirmed crypto‑related brand impersonation campaign targeting Solana users. The site was registered through Global Domain Group LLC and resolves to the IP address 172.81.180.235, which is hosted in Canada under AS174 (Cogent Communications, LLC). The domain is served via Nginx and employs front‑end libraries including Bootstrap, jQuery, Popper, and Swiper, consistent with a typical web‑based scam infrastructure. SSL is provided by Let’s Encrypt (certificate R12), confirming the use of a free certificate to convey legitimacy. The page title observed during the brief live period was "SolanaScope | AI‑Powered Wallet Analytics & Portfolio Insights," directly referencing the Solana brand and reinforcing the impersonation intent. Reputation metrics are uniformly negative: Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100, and three independent blocklists (PhishDestroy, MetaMask, SEAL) have flagged the domain, with the site appearing on three broader security blocklists. VirusTotal reports two detections out of 93 scanned vendors, confirming that at least a subset of security products recognize the domain as malicious. Nameservers are cloudflare-managed (mitchell.ns.cloudflare.com and sandy.ns.cloudflare.com), a common choice for rapid deployment and DNS obscurity. While the site is no longer reachable, the combination of a low trust score, multiple blocklist entries, vendor detections, and explicit brand impersonation classifies the domain as a high‑confidence crypto scam. Defenders should block outbound connections to 172.81.180.235, add 9solanascope.com to domain‑allowance deny lists, and monitor for any derivative domains using similar naming patterns or the same registrar. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260223-E57556 TLS cert SHA-256: 5068c1fd59da79945d0a33e1608e2430a3e4c7a315b74a0c7f6c07c2eb87873a ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/9solanascope.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=9solanascope.com Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
