# PhishDestroy threat dossier — amlbot.software ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 09:14:05 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/amlbot.software/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- STATUS STALE — last probed 22 days ago, treat as ACTIVE until re-verified Composite threat score: 99/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: AMLBot ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Certego, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, Seclookup, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: AS13335 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.

(Live-status flag is stale — last probe 22 days ago.) Reports filed: 2 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-02-09 02:01:45 UTC Latest report: 2026-02-10 16:53:16 UTC Days since first notice: 72 — no registrar action, domain remains online 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/amlbot.software/#coordinated-suppression ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (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: 2026-02-09 02:01:45 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-03-31 01:18:06 UTC (STALE — 22 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-02-23 03:15:03 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 22 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 22 days stale) 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/019c14dd-a57e-7318-811e-1d595924de8a/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/amlbot.software crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.amlbot.software Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=amlbot.software AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/amlbot.software URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/amlbot.software/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 02:30:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies amlbot.software as a phishing domain impersonating AMLBot, a known provider of AML compliance solutions for cryptocurrency. Although this domain is currently offline, it was flagged for brand impersonation and appeared on multiple security blocklists, posing a medium-level risk to users seeking legitimate AML services. This phishing scheme works by mimicking the AMLBot brand and its services, attempting to lure users into trusting the fake site. The domain amlbot.software was used to present fraudulent AML compliance solutions, potentially aiming to steal sensitive information or credentials from visitors. The site’s creation date in the future (February 21, 2026) suggests suspicious or manipulated data, while VirusTotal flagged it by 6 out of 95 security vendors, reinforcing its dubious nature. If you have visited amlbot.software, it is important to immediately avoid entering any personal or financial information. Users should run a thorough malware and antivirus scan on their devices, change any passwords that might have been used on the site, and monitor accounts for suspicious activity. Reporting the incident to your security team or relevant authorities can help prevent further harm. Always verify URLs and use trusted sources when accessing AML compliance tools or crypto services. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1770602466-amlbot.software ## 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 (volunteer 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/amlbot.software/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=amlbot.software 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
