Domain eventually taken down after 2 abuse notice(s). Reports filed: 2 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-05-02 19:36:37 UTC Latest report: 2026-05-07 01:50:57 UTC Days since first notice: 47 (eventually taken down) ICANN Compliance CC'd on at least one escalation — non-response is on record. Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies. Per-report timeline: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/cesare.casino/#coordinated-suppression ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-29 00:49:35 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-28 21:53:22 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-06-19 18:22:00 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 17:33:39 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) 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/019dd60f-e84b-74dd-86bb-2c85fa57734d/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/be3dd194-66d6-4d04-9752-ca39c7517ae0 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/cesare.casino crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.cesare.casino Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=cesare.casino AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/cesare.casino URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/cesare.casino/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 17:11:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain poses a significant threat as it impersonates a legitimate crypto casino, aiming to deceive users into divulging sensitive information or losing their cryptocurrency. The evidence against cesare.casino is substantial, with 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagging it, and it has been listed on 3 security blocklists, indicating a high level of risk. Furthermore, the domain was registered through NameCheap, Inc. and was created as recently as April 28, 2026, which, combined with its appearance in 1 threat intelligence pulse from AlienVault OTX, underscores its malicious intent. If a user has visited cesare.casino, they should immediately verify the legitimacy of the site on PhishDestroy and ensure they have not fallen prey to any crypto drainers or fake login attempts. Given the domain's active status and elevated risk level, it is crucial for users to exercise extreme caution and monitor their accounts for any suspicious activity, reporting any incidents to the relevant authorities to prevent further financial loss. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260428-1BF889 Favicon MD5: 095b185e288ed8e4d934ac78fe6a4e2e TLS cert SHA-256: c2f6acb4371414bffe8006e87082b6dfe4b1c0f6a48d7f493d21b34c740dd2d0 ## 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/cesare.casino/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cesare.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.
