# PhishDestroy threat dossier — bfxinvst.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-31 01:40:52 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/bfxinvst.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 97/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 13/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Fortinet, G-Data, Kaspersky, Netcraft, Seclookup, Sophos, VIPRE URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 213.165.249.109 (NL, Lelystad) ASN: ASAS22611 InMotion Hosting, Inc. Hosting org: AS22611 InMotion Hosting, Inc. Registrar: OwnRegistrar, Inc. Nameservers: ["ns1.srvconfigr.com", "ns2.srvconfigr.com"] Registered: 2026-03-14 Page title: Bfxinvestment - Forex, Stocks, ETFs, Binary Options and Cryptocurrency Trading ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-06-08 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: fe8644e714dd8a9d44de7816792d74cd0a4b6dea63a2d944647f7bb93e8c85a0 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - bfxinvst.com.myapexbluetop.com - www.bfxinvst.com.myapexbluetop.com ## 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: 2026-03-14 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-03-14 15:37:52 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-03-14 12:40:49 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-31 01:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-16 12:04:54 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) 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/019cec58-3839-76dd-83af-25e20f036d26/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/0945cb69-9a63-4853-94be-ed2cb738a6da Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/bfxinvst.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.bfxinvst.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=bfxinvst.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/bfxinvst.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/bfxinvst.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-18 17:33:53 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies bfxinvst.com as a high-risk generic phishing domain targeting users interested in forex, stocks, ETFs, binary options, and cryptocurrency trading. The site aimed to impersonate legitimate investment platforms, posing a significant threat to unsuspecting users seeking financial services. Supporting evidence includes its resolution to IP address 213.165.249.109 and registration via OwnRegistrar, Inc., a registrar sometimes linked to suspicious domains. The domain was created recently on March 14, 2026, and despite its short lifespan, it appeared on two security blocklists. Additionally, 13 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors flagged the domain for malicious activity, further substantiating its risk profile. Currently, bfxinvst.com has been taken offline, which mitigates immediate risk. However, users are advised to remain vigilant and avoid interacting with similar suspicious domains or unsolicited investment offers. Monitoring for any resurgence or related phishing campaigns using similar infrastructure is recommended to maintain cybersecurity hygiene. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260314-EFF4B0 Favicon MD5: 41329da236b562e6253bf20b00ddfc32 TLS cert SHA-256: fe8644e714dd8a9d44de7816792d74cd0a4b6dea63a2d944647f7bb93e8c85a0 ## 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/bfxinvst.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bfxinvst.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
