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: 2026-06-14 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-17 18:32:02 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-17 18:32:52 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-27 06:46:33 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-18 00:14:29 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ed66b-9fbf-74fc-887a-94873c85774a/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/0b43e1dc-ccb9-4f0a-8c82-d3c7abf30eeb Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/closbet.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.closbet.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=closbet.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/closbet.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/closbet.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 20:08:54 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain closbet.com has been identified as a brand impersonation threat, currently active. It impersonates the Crypto Casino / Gambling brand, potentially misleading users and compromising their financial and personal information. The domain's status is under investigation, indicating that further analysis is required to determine the full extent of the threat. Analysis indicates that closbet.com was created on June 14, 2026, and is registered through Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com. The domain resolves to the IP address 104.21.25.142, and its SSL certificate is provided by Let's Encrypt. The site has been flagged by 1 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, suggesting that while it has not been widely recognized as malicious, there is a potential risk. The page title 'Closbet | Decentralized Web3 Gambling Site with Provable Trust' further reinforces the brand impersonation. Additionally, the domain appears on 1 security blocklist, indicating that it has been identified as a threat by at least one security service. The use of Cloudflare for DNS and web services may be an attempt to mask the true nature of the domain or to provide additional resilience. Given the current status of under investigation and the active nature of the threat, it is recommended that users avoid interacting with closbet.com until further evidence is available. Organizations and individuals should monitor their networks and user activities for any signs of engagement with this domain. Security teams should consider adding this domain to their watch lists and implementing additional layers of protection, such as enhanced phishing detection and user education. Regularly updating threat intelligence databases and using domain reputation services can also help in identifying and mitigating risks associated with this and similar impersonation threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260617-320EC2 Favicon MD5: 85832dd14b68f7c185518b9cae58dc90 TLS cert SHA-256: 2571f551f6c5cc4d09907d38af3c7a5deb241fba5a81f710578206bc29c13651 ## 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/closbet.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=closbet.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.
