Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain cow.fi-eu.xyz impersonates the legitimate Cow Protocol (cow.fi) decentralized exchange platform. The site poses a credential theft and phishing threat by attempting to trick users into connecting cryptocurrency wallets or entering sensitive information under the guise of a legitimate DeFi service. Technical evidence shows the site has 4 detections out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, flagged by Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, and SOCRadar. The domain is registered with NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, resolving to IP 104.21.17.252 hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States. The domain was created on 2026-06-20, uses an SSL certificate from Google Trust Services, and has nameservers david.ns.cloudflare.com and elinore.ns.cloudflare.com. It appears on one blocklist and receives a GridinSoft trust score of 0 out of 100. The domain status is currently ACTIVE. Based on the DOM risk score of 81 (out of 100) and zero trust rating, this site presents a high risk and should be blocked. It is actively impersonating a known cryptocurrency brand and is flagged by multiple security vendors. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260622-1CD037 TLS cert SHA-256: e4077218be5282258d6011c8d1dd709762c042a40426ece92977edc4e08c1fa2 ## 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/cow.fi-eu.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cow.fi-eu.xyz 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.
