  - tanukicode.icu

## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-15 06:20:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Is botserv.tanukicode.icu a phishing site?

Analysis of botserv.tanukicode.icu indicates that the domain remains active as of the report date, July 15, 2026. The domain was registered on April 5, 2026 through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and is hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure, as evidenced by the authoritative name servers apollo.ns.cloudflare.com and sreeni.ns.cloudflare.com. DNS resolution points to the IPv4 address 188.114.97.3. VirusTotal scans show that 2 of 91 security vendors have flagged the domain, suggesting that at least a small subset of detection engines consider it malicious. The threat classification is generic_phishing with a high risk rating, and the current status is listed as active. While the available data confirms the domain’s operational infrastructure and limited vendor detections, no public content analysis or victim reports have been published, leaving the exact phishing payload and target vector uncertain. Defenders should block any network connections to 188.114.97.3 and add botserv.tanukicode.icu to URL filtering lists. Monitoring for new detections on additional security platforms is advised, as further analysis may reveal expanded malicious activity.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260715-FAA36C
TLS cert SHA-256:      618ebfaa9d9db954bd51f7a4d867508d90ac56a81ee42df3034a848fa9ef74b7

## 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.
