# PhishDestroy threat dossier — bitget.bitget-bit.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-23 06:23:20 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/bitget.bitget-bit.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 89/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: Bitget ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Netcraft Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 38.180.148.154 (JP, Tokyo) ASN: ASAS9009 M247 M247 Europe SRL, RO Hosting org: AS9009 M247 Europe SRL Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["kristina.ns.cloudflare.com", "porter.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: 403 Forbidden ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-05-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4e358dabdda5939a17440f0a12ce2d6860805f63398c3f6815f901d8ea9ebeba Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - web.bitget-bit.net - www.bitget-bit.net ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:19:59 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-13 01:44:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-15 18:06:03 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/01992f96-f8ac-75bf-aa5b-d73d1fef608f/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/bitget.bitget-bit.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.bitget.bitget-bit.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=bitget.bitget-bit.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/bitget.bitget-bit.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/bitget.bitget-bit.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 00:37:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies bitget.bitget-bit.com as a domain involved in brand impersonation targeting the cryptocurrency exchange Bitget. Although the threat level is assessed as low, the domain was created to mimic the legitimate brand, potentially misleading users seeking Bitget services. The page title returns a "403 Forbidden" error, suggesting limited or no active content at the time of analysis. The domain was registered on February 21, 2026, via GoDaddy.com, LLC and resolves to the IP address 38.180.148.154. It appears on one security blocklist and has a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100, indicating a lack of reputation or trustworthiness. VirusTotal reports one detection out of 95 security vendors, which is minimal but noteworthy given the impersonation context. Currently, bitget.bitget-bit.com is taken offline, reducing immediate risk to users. PhishDestroy recommends avoiding any interaction with this domain and advises monitoring for potential future reuse or domain resurrection attempts. Users should always verify URLs carefully and rely on official sources when accessing cryptocurrency platforms like Bitget. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/93 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 4e358dabdda5939a17440f0a12ce2d6860805f63398c3f6815f901d8ea9ebeba ## 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/bitget.bitget-bit.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bitget.bitget-bit.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.
