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: 2026-03-17 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-02 18:08:46 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-02 15:09:57 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-20 20:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 16:45:16 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e88df-35f0-74aa-af6e-baa6b245bf71/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/c2079ca2-3fa8-439d-93c1-b6f6057b2f57 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/buopex.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.buopex.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=buopex.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/buopex.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/buopex.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 16:40:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain buopex.com is identified as a brand impersonation threat, specifically targeting the Crypto Casino or Gambling brand, and is currently active. This domain was flagged due to its malicious activities, impersonating a well-known brand to potentially deceive users. PhishDestroy identifies buopex.com as a high-risk domain, as it is flagged by 18 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, has an IP address of 172.67.138.224, was registered through GMO Internet, Inc., and was created on March 17, 2026. Additionally, it appears on 3 security blocklists, indicating a significant level of mistrust from the security community, with its SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt, which may attempt to give a false sense of security to its users. Given its current active status, it is crucial for users to exercise extreme caution when interacting with buopex.com, as it may attempt to steal sensitive information or engage in other malicious activities. The fact that it has been flagged by multiple security vendors and appears on several blocklists underscores the importance of verifying the authenticity of websites before providing any personal or financial information. To stay safe, users should check the full report and be aware of the potential risks associated with this domain, taking necessary precautions to protect themselves from brand impersonation threats like buopex.com. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260602-016FD2 Favicon MD5: c3d9e7ac8ad834ae3d129c8c7a595a4f TLS cert SHA-256: 8a2033ac6827f2dc78fb19b08ec1bc5c3942827b867bb4d84a6814391221132e ## 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/buopex.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=buopex.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.
