# PhishDestroy threat dossier — btcusdt.cyou ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-27 01:39:23 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/btcusdt.cyou/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky URLQuery: 2 detections AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Gname.com Pte. Ltd. Nameservers: coleman.ns.cloudflare.com, kay.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2025-08-12 Expires: 2026-08-12 Page title: IXX ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-02 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4e8ad650537a15e91d0e760a323298abade2b31b5b01bed27088b5bd353ac116 ## 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: 2025-08-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-15 13:51:47 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-17 14:49:37 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-27 00:20:35 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/019ecb1e-93c0-757d-abfb-478d9927da9e/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/cbc58fd6-a1ba-42f6-aa37-2805928d48d2 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/btcusdt.cyou crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.btcusdt.cyou Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=btcusdt.cyou AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/btcusdt.cyou URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/btcusdt.cyou/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 17:32:14 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is actively engaged in cryptocurrency credential harvesting, specifically targeting users of crypto wallet services. Analysis of the site content and infrastructure indicates it mimics legitimate exchange interfaces to deceive victims into entering private keys or seed phrases, which are then exfiltrated to attacker-controlled servers. The domain employs social engineering tactics, such as fake login portals and urgent transaction prompts, to manipulate users into disclosing sensitive authentication details. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators supporting its malicious classification. The domain was registered on August 12, 2025, through Gname.com Pte. Ltd., and currently resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3, hosted on Cloudflare's network (AS13335). Security vendor detection on VirusTotal shows 6 out of 95 engines flagging the domain as malicious. Additionally, the domain appears on three independent security blocklists, including those maintained by cryptocurrency-specific threat intelligence providers. Users who have visited btcusdt.cyou should immediately revoke any permissions granted to the site via wallet applications. All credentials or seed phrases entered on the site must be considered compromised and should be transferred to a new wallet using a clean device. Monitor connected accounts for unauthorized transactions and report the incident to relevant cryptocurrency security response teams. Network administrators are advised to block the domain and its resolving IP at the perimeter to prevent further access. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260617-584B76 Favicon MD5: 1e072646188d0779006d7bad3fdb30d7 TLS cert SHA-256: 4e8ad650537a15e91d0e760a323298abade2b31b5b01bed27088b5bd353ac116 ## 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/btcusdt.cyou/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=btcusdt.cyou 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.
