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: 2026-02-26 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-08 21:54:49 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-14 08:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-09 04:09:39 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f434b-4bf1-71ac-913a-fa430428b1d1/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/betshiv.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.betshiv.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=betshiv.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/betshiv.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/betshiv.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-08 22:05:50 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] betshiv.com is assessed as high risk for brand impersonation, specifically targeting online crypto casino and gambling platforms. The domain actively mimics legitimate blockchain casino services, increasing the likelihood of user deception and potential financial loss. The threat type is clearly identified as brand impersonation, with the intent to exploit users seeking trusted crypto gambling services. Technical analysis reveals several key indicators: VirusTotal reports 4 out of 95 security vendors flagging betshiv.com as malicious. The domain is registered via TUCOWS.COM, CO. and utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, suggesting an attempt to appear legitimate. The domain resolves to IP address 172.67.184.232 and was created on February 26, 2026, indicating recent activity. The site has been referenced in at least one AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulse, providing further evidence of malicious intent. The page title, 'Betshiv: Most Popular Online Crypto Casino Based on Blockchain,' directly targets users interested in crypto gambling. To mitigate risk, organizations should block access to betshiv.com at the network and endpoint levels, and update threat intelligence feeds with this indicator. Users should be educated to recognize brand impersonation tactics, especially in the context of crypto casinos and gambling services. Security teams should monitor for related domains and remain vigilant for additional indicators of compromise associated with this infrastructure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 50679c0c5e3ed56d05c1d0ed312419a7 TLS cert SHA-256: 4d449e39fb256dd06dd4c7e06931cb1213990729d106fe5c8ef31f4cf923ecfc ## 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/betshiv.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=betshiv.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.
