Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] cat-cash.live — Phishing Investigation Report Analysis of cat-cash.live shows a domain that was registered on July 22, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is currently resolved to the IP address 172.67.198.227. The domain is served by Cloudflare DNS, using the nameservers etienne.ns.cloudflare.com and hope.ns.cloudflare.com, which is consistent with other recent malicious infrastructure that leverages Cloudflare’s global edge network to provide resilience and hide origin servers. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy feed, indicating that at least one reputable anti‑phishing organization has observed malicious activity associated with it. VirusTotal reports that the domain was scanned by 91 vendors without any flagging, but the absence of detections does not constitute evidence of safety, especially given the recent creation date and blocklist inclusion. No public SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, or page title information are available, so the surface‑level characteristics of the hosted content remain unknown. The limited visibility suggests that the campaign may be in an early stage or is employing fast‑flux techniques to limit exposure. Defenders should add cat-cash.live to outbound URL filtering rules, enforce DNS sinkholing or blocklist enforcement at the resolver level, and monitor traffic to the associated IP address for anomalous patterns. Continuous re‑scanning on platforms such as VirusTotal and periodic retrieval of the page title or content, when possible, are recommended to detect any evolution in the threat vector. Until further intelligence is gathered, organizations should treat the domain as high‑risk for credential harvesting or other phishing‑related abuse.

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 (operator 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/cat-cash.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cat-cash.live 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
