Registrar: NameCheap, Inc. Registered: 2025-05-03 Expires: 2026-05-03 Page title: Buy/Sell Bitcoin, Ether and Altcoins | Cryptocurrency Exchange | CashUnion ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: WE1 Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2025-05-03 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:19:43 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-21 23:05:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-21 22:05:14 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/01991262-da29-726f-bbb8-6f77014fe72a/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/cashunioncrypto.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.cashunioncrypto.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=cashunioncrypto.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/cashunioncrypto.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/cashunioncrypto.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:55:30 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies cashunioncrypto.com as a low-risk brand impersonation site targeting Crypto.com. The domain presents itself as a cryptocurrency exchange, promoting buying and selling Bitcoin, Ether, and altcoins under the guise of CashUnion. Despite mimicking a trusted brand, the threat level associated with this domain remains low at this time. The domain cashunioncrypto.com was registered on February 21, 2026, and resolves to the IP address 104.21.17.218. VirusTotal analysis indicates only 2 out of 95 security vendors mark this domain as suspicious, suggesting limited detection among cybersecurity tools. Additionally, the domain appears on one security blocklist and displays a page title consistent with cryptocurrency exchange services. These technical factors reinforce the domain’s intent to impersonate Crypto.com without significant detection yet. Currently, cashunioncrypto.com is still active, posing potential risks to users unfamiliar with authentic Crypto.com services. PhishDestroy recommends exercising caution when interacting with this domain. Users should verify URLs carefully, avoid sharing personal or financial details, and rely on official channels when conducting cryptocurrency transactions. Monitoring and blocking this domain in security solutions is advised to mitigate any future escalation of risk. ## 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/cashunioncrypto.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cashunioncrypto.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.
