Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] cexio.vip Safety Check — Phishing Detected Analysis of the domain cexio.vip shows that it was registered on July 17 2026 through Dynadot Inc. The domain is currently active and resolves to the IP address 104.21.42.238, which is hosted behind Cloudflare’s network as indicated by the authoritative nameservers olof.ns.cloudflare.com and sue.ns.cloudflare.com. VirusTotal has recorded 11 of 91 participating security vendors flagging the domain, confirming a consensus of malicious classification. The domain is listed on a single public security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy service, reinforcing its identification as a phishing vector. No additional public intelligence such as SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, page titles, or Safe Browsing verdicts are available at this time, leaving the exact content and target of the phishing campaign undefined. The limited visibility of the site’s landing page prevents attribution to a specific brand or lure type, but the classification in the provided intelligence as a generic phishing threat suggests that the domain is being used to harvest credentials or other sensitive information. Defenders should consider immediate containment actions, including adding 104.21.42.238 to network deny lists, enforcing DNS filtering for cexio.vip, and monitoring for any traffic to the associated Cloudflare nameservers. Continuous re‑evaluation is recommended, as the domain’s recent creation date implies a short operational window during which it may evolve or be repurposed. Organizations employing email or web gateway protections should ensure that inbound messages containing links to cexio.vip are quarantined or blocked, and that user awareness campaigns highlight the risk of unsolicited requests that direct to newly registered domains. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260723-05921C Favicon MD5: 79a580f05dade98a8e27204dbf962dc0 TLS cert SHA-256: d2aa3823175dfd11822ed0a45f1324db3e2858b8631262accd615d3929cb6243 ## 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 (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/cexio.vip/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cexio.vip 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.
