KG Hosting org: HostBrr Solutions Registrar: Dynadot Inc Nameservers: ["ns20.nameserveit.com", "ns21.nameserveit.com"] Registered: 2026-06-15 Expires: 2027-06-13 Page title: Apexfortune – Safe investment with Apexfortune ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR2 Expires: 2026-09-11 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d65a143648941180aeeb5d1fb5e9074ba9513a0ec4c9000c566713af98dd94fc ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. 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: 2026-06-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-15 16:32:54 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-17 14:29:16 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-27 13:45:29 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-16 00:40:13 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ecbb2-4ef2-7361-bd53-5696d0546060/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/c2e298e1-2b0d-4e05-8590-3833ce78b455 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/apexfortune-access.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.apexfortune-access.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=apexfortune-access.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/apexfortune-access.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/apexfortune-access.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 17:30:32 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, apexfortune-access.live, is actively engaged in cryptocurrency investment scam phishing operations. The site presents itself as a legitimate investment platform under the name 'Apexfortune,' using deceptive marketing language such as 'Safe investment with Apexfortune' to lure victims into disclosing financial credentials, cryptocurrency wallet details, or transferring funds to fraudulent accounts. The phishing page mimics professional financial service interfaces, employing social engineering tactics to exploit trust and urgency, typical of high-risk investment fraud schemes. Analysis indicates the domain was registered on June 15, 2026, through Dynadot Inc, with an SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt (YR2), resolving to the IP address 77.90.2.3. Security vendor detection on VirusTotal shows 7 out of 95 engines flagging the domain as malicious. The domain appears on three independent security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL, further corroborating its fraudulent nature. Infrastructure review reveals the use of a short-lived domain registration pattern, common in phishing campaigns designed to evade detection and takedown efforts. Users who have visited apexfortune-access.live or interacted with its content should immediately cease all engagement and perform the following actions: revoke any permissions granted to the site in browser or wallet extensions, scan local devices for malware using updated security tools, and monitor financial accounts for unauthorized transactions. If credentials or wallet information were entered, rotate passwords and private keys immediately, and report the incident to relevant financial institutions or cryptocurrency platforms. Suspected fraudulent transactions should be reported to local cybercrime authorities for further investigation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260617-A362E9 TLS cert SHA-256: d65a143648941180aeeb5d1fb5e9074ba9513a0ec4c9000c566713af98dd94fc ## 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/apexfortune-access.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=apexfortune-access.live 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.
