Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NameCheap, Inc. Nameservers: blair.ns.cloudflare.com, carmelo.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-02-21 Expires: 2027-01-01 Page title: AMLBot - Comprehensive Crypto Compliance Solution | Free AML Crypto Check HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: pending notification queue. No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## 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: 2026-01-07 10:35:48 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-03-31 01:14:13 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/019b9761-d0e3-753a-91dc-465be93f26c3/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/amlcoin.cash crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.amlcoin.cash Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=amlcoin.cash AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/amlcoin.cash URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/amlcoin.cash/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:49:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies amlcoin.cash as a phishing domain pretending to be AMLBot, a crypto compliance solution. Even though it is currently offline, it posed risks by misleading users into trusting a fake service. This phishing scheme worked by impersonating a legitimate AML crypto tool to trick visitors into sharing sensitive information or engaging with fraudulent services. It was flagged by several security blocklists and some antivirus vendors, highlighting its deceptive nature. If you visited amlcoin.cash, users should avoid submitting any personal or financial details and scan their devices for malware. Changing passwords and monitoring accounts for suspicious activity is recommended to mitigate any potential impact. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: a1ca5b68e4f7e2f17ac6fffe3361080c05aa9e3f928959becc71ac699278cee4 ## 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/amlcoin.cash/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=amlcoin.cash 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.
