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: 2021-08-04 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-08-29 10:39:43 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-24 21:23:14 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-21 18:09:22 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/0198f60e-0ff1-7718-b7e8-b0aba152a18b/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/coinexofficial.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.coinexofficial.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=coinexofficial.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/coinexofficial.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/coinexofficial.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 02:19:21 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies coinexofficial.com as a domain associated with generic phishing activities. Although currently offline, this site posed a threat by impersonating legitimate cryptocurrency platforms to deceive users. The domain was flagged on a security blocklist and registered through 1API GmbH in August 2021, indicating a relatively recent creation aimed at fraudulent purposes. This phishing attempt typically works by mimicking trusted crypto exchange websites to lure unsuspecting victims into submitting sensitive information like login credentials or private keys. The domain resolved to an IP address not associated with genuine services, suggesting an attempt to mislead users. Despite a low-risk level and minimal vendor detection on VirusTotal, the presence on blocklists highlights the importance of vigilance against such scams. Users are advised to avoid interacting with coinexofficial.com or any similar suspicious domains. Always verify URLs carefully and use official channels when accessing cryptocurrency services. Employing updated security software and enabling two-factor authentication can further protect personal data. Reporting suspicious domains to authorities and security platforms helps prevent wider fraud exposure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: c6a00ebe4c43121a2368698656a1b9ca ## 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/coinexofficial.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=coinexofficial.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.
