# PhishDestroy threat dossier — buttcoin.claims ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-23 00:13:02 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/buttcoin.claims/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- STATUS STALE — last probed 22 days ago, treat as ACTIVE until re-verified Composite threat score: 85/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: Buttcoin ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 4 independent blocklists Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.96.3 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-14 20:10:32 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-03-31 01:25:14 UTC (STALE — 22 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-02-23 03:15:03 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 22 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 22 days stale) 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/019c5d27-7b66-71b4-9403-403a5f4935e5/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/buttcoin.claims crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.buttcoin.claims Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=buttcoin.claims AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/buttcoin.claims URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/buttcoin.claims/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:30:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies buttcoin.claims as a medium-risk domain involved in brand impersonation targeting the Buttcoin memecoin community. Brand impersonation can mislead users into trusting fraudulent websites, potentially exposing them to scams or unauthorized data collection. Such threats matter because they undermine user trust and can lead to financial or personal information loss. The domain buttcoin.claims was registered on February 21, 2026, through NameSilo, LLC. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3 and was found on four security blocklists, indicating prior or suspected malicious activity. Although currently offline, VirusTotal flags the domain by three out of 95 security vendors, signaling some concerns but not widespread detection. The site used the page title "BUTTCOIN - The Original Memecoin Since 2011," clearly attempting to mimic the official Buttcoin brand. Users are advised to avoid visiting buttcoin.claims or providing any personal information if encountered. Instead, always verify the official Buttcoin website through trusted sources. Use updated security software and consult security blocklists or services like PhishDestroy to confirm domain reputations. Exercising caution online helps prevent falling victim to brand impersonation schemes like this one. ## 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/buttcoin.claims/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=buttcoin.claims 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.
