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: 2025-06-30 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-29 17:00:20 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-29 15:10:15 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-13 08:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-29 18:17:40 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f13e4-162b-75cb-b4ef-656c27285c40/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/e7bbd2f7-de39-4952-81f7-c3589dd4d2f0 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/alignicmining.com.faststagecl.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.alignicmining.com.faststagecl.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=alignicmining.com.faststagecl.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/alignicmining.com.faststagecl.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/alignicmining.com.faststagecl.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-29 17:06:33 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, alignicmining.com.faststagecl.com, presents a significant threat by impersonating cryptocurrency investment and mining services, likely to deceive users into divulging sensitive financial data or transferring funds under false pretenses. The domain's branding and page title, 'AlignInvest CoinageMining,' suggest it is targeting individuals interested in digital asset investments, a sector frequently exploited for generic phishing attacks. Infrastructure analysis reveals that alignicmining.com.faststagecl.com is registered through ENOM, INC., with a creation date of June 30, 2025. At the time of review, the domain remains active and has not been flagged by any major security vendors, as evidenced by 0 out of 95 detections on VirusTotal. The site is secured with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate and currently resolves to IP address 185.244.151.84. Notably, no blocklists have yet registered this domain, which may indicate its recent deployment or evolving tactics to evade detection. Given the risk of credential theft or financial loss, users who have visited this domain should immediately avoid submitting any personal or payment information. Those who interacted with the site are advised to monitor financial accounts closely and consider updating passwords associated with their cryptocurrency or banking services. Reporting the domain to relevant security authorities and staying alert for follow-up phishing attempts is highly recommended. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - Public blocklists: now listed on 3 feeds ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260629-757C5F Favicon MD5: 8af3798dda3992540efbf8a8151c35bb TLS cert SHA-256: e162d1955737853bfd203c3cdb617827892702cba5b92eb7c8caa0326edd751d ## 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/alignicmining.com.faststagecl.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=alignicmining.com.faststagecl.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.
