# PhishDestroy threat dossier — casino-x.casino ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-06 18:58:01 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/casino-x.casino/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 84/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: gambling ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 13/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Certego, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, Seclookup, SOCRadar URLQuery: 100 detections AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.38.205 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US 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.

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: 2025-12-20 (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) First reported: 2026-01-05 13:24:53 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-02 17:20:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-16 18:04:46 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019b8e54-8bfc-77fc-ae1a-bae1eaae5c20/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/casino-x.casino crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.casino-x.casino Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=casino-x.casino AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/casino-x.casino URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/casino-x.casino/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 01:30:33 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies casino-x.casino as a high-risk generic phishing domain. The domain was registered recently on December 20, 2025, raising suspicion due to its newness combined with a low trust score and association with phishing activity. It is flagged in one AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulse and appears on a known security blocklist, underscoring its malicious intent. The page title 'Just a moment...' suggests attempts to mimic legitimate sites or delay detection. Technical analysis reveals that casino-x.casino resolves to IP address 104.21.38.205 and was registered via NameSilo, LLC, a registrar sometimes used by fraudulent actors. Its Gridinsoft trust score is 0/100, and Scamadviser rates it poorly at 26/100. VirusTotal reports 13 out of 95 security vendors flagging this domain, confirming its suspicious nature. These combined indicators demonstrate a coordinated phishing infrastructure aimed at deceiving users. Currently, casino-x.casino is taken offline, which helps mitigate immediate risks. However, users and organizations should remain vigilant for potential reactivation or similar phishing campaigns. It is recommended to block this domain in network filters and update threat intelligence sources regularly. Continuous monitoring and user awareness remain critical to prevent exposure to phishing threats linked to domains like casino-x.casino. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 13/93 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: c3d9e7ac8ad834ae3d129c8c7a595a4f ## 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/casino-x.casino/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=casino-x.casino 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.
