# PhishDestroy threat dossier — coinex-ex.top ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-30 00:54:28 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/coinex-ex.top/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- CRITICAL THREAT — DO NOT VISIT Composite threat score: 80/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Fake Exchange ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.2.248 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo,LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] coinex-ex.top Fake Exchange Alert The domain coinex-ex.top is currently active and has been classified as a high‑risk generic phishing site employing a fake exchange scheme. The domain was registered on February 21, 2026 through NameSilo, LLC and resolves to the Cloudflare‑hosted address 104.21.2.248, which geolocates to Canada. Authoritative nameservers ns1.ns306.parklogic.com. and ns2.ns306.parklogic.com. are in use. The site presents an HTTP 200 response and serves a TLS certificate issued by Let’s Encrypt (identifier YE2). The only visible page title is “Redirecting…”, and no additional content has been captured, so the exact phishing landing page cannot be described. VirusTotal has flagged the domain in four of ninety‑three vendor scans, and it appears on one public blocklist. The domain is already blocked by PhishDestroy and has a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100, indicating a lack of reputation. Defenders should add the domain and its resolving IP to outbound filtering rules, monitor DNS queries for the associated nameservers, and consider the host IP as malicious for any traffic originating from it. Continuous re‑scanning is recommended to detect any changes in payload or hosting. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 4/93 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 726ad73a2a8b8695d90936373c65ea2750468790968cdf3034b38324d1b9f9f0 ## 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/coinex-ex.top/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=coinex-ex.top 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.
