# PhishDestroy threat dossier — akbet.casino ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-04 00:59:11 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/akbet.casino/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Crypto Casino / Gambling ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, Fortinet, Gridinsoft AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.96.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-03 17:11:45 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-04 00:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-04 00:02:01 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f2888-5cc7-7528-b533-66060c069738/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/akbet.casino crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.akbet.casino Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=akbet.casino AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/akbet.casino URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/akbet.casino/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-03 17:15:33 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain akbet.casino poses a high risk as a brand impersonation site targeting the crypto casino and gambling sector. This domain misleads users into thinking they are engaging with a legitimate decentralized Web3 gambling platform, which could lead to financial losses and personal data compromise. The threat is significant due to the ongoing rise of online gambling scams that exploit popular brand names to attract unsuspecting victims. Evidence indicates that akbet.casino is currently active and resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3. The domain was created on June 11, 2026, and is registered through NameSilo, LLC. Security analysis from VirusTotal reveals that 3 out of 95 security vendors flag this domain as suspicious, highlighting the potential threat it poses. Additionally, the site currently has no known blocklist counts, but the brand impersonation aspect raises immediate concerns for users in the crypto gambling space. Users who have visited akbet.casino should exercise caution and immediately cease any interactions with the site. It is advisable to monitor personal financial accounts for unauthorized transactions and to change passwords for any accounts that may have been compromised. Additionally, users should report the domain to relevant authorities or cybersecurity organizations to prevent further victimization and protect others from potential scams. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 37c40b3a7287eeb1108ead5339b3da73 TLS cert SHA-256: 91876c9802081e8060e6b9616c8f97b66fd20bc48e2970cfb4ee72abc220b957 ## 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/akbet.casino/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=akbet.casino 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.
