# PhishDestroy threat dossier — coinchief-user.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-06 19:35:52 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/coinchief-user.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 66/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Ermes AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 186.2.175.79 (BZ, Belmopan) ASN: AS59692 IQWeb FZ-LLC Hosting org: Iqweb LLC Registrar: Gname.com Pte. Ltd. Nameservers: pns71.cloudns.net, pns72.cloudns.com, pns73.cloudns.net Registered: 2026-05-31 Expires: 2027-05-31 Page title: CoinChief Login | Account Access and Platform System State ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR2 Expires: 2026-08-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 5c03ed7103fc2ced9cd6e64978e695f413bd378592a23845aefa881c6e2fd681 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. 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: 2026-05-31 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-06 15:13:28 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-06 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f378e-a24a-748c-b26e-a6ea8039470b/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/coinchief-user.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.coinchief-user.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=coinchief-user.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/coinchief-user.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/coinchief-user.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-06 15:14:49 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, coinchief-user.com, is flagged as a high-risk generic phishing site designed to impersonate the legitimate CoinChief cryptocurrency trading platform. Analysis indicates the domain mimics the CoinChief login portal, likely aiming to harvest user credentials, session tokens, or facilitate unauthorized account access. The page title, 'CoinChief Login | Account Access and Platform System State,' reinforces the deception by replicating branding elements associated with the authentic service. No specific drainer kit signatures have been confirmed at this stage, but the infrastructure aligns with credential harvesting campaigns targeting financial platforms. Technical indicators reveal limited detection, with only 1 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagging the domain as malicious. The domain was registered through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. on May 31, 2026, an anomalous creation date suggesting potential manipulation or typo-squatting tactics. It resolves to the IP address 186.2.175.79, hosted under a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which provides a false sense of security to victims. Google Safe Browsing (GSB) status remains unconfirmed, and no additional blocklist entries have been recorded at the time of analysis. The domain's registration details and hosting provider lack transparency, further complicating attribution. As of the latest assessment, coinchief-user.com remains active and poses a continued threat to users. Immediate response actions include submitting the domain to additional threat intelligence platforms for broader detection and notifying the hosting provider for potential takedown. Users are advised to verify domain authenticity before entering credentials and to implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) on all financial accounts. Despite the low initial detection rate, the domain's active status and targeted impersonation of a cryptocurrency platform warrant heightened vigilance and proactive blocking in enterprise and consumer security tools. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 30d9d287d090bee6094025d3089164fe TLS cert SHA-256: 5c03ed7103fc2ced9cd6e64978e695f413bd378592a23845aefa881c6e2fd681 ## 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/coinchief-user.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=coinchief-user.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
