Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is crunchcat.run a Phishing Site? Analysis of the domain crunchcat.run indicates that it is actively being used for malicious phishing operations. The domain was registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC and created on July 20, 2026, suggesting a very recent launch. It is hosted on the IP address 2.24.198.130 and utilizes the authoritative name servers ns09.domaincontrol.com and ns10.domaincontrol.com, both of which are typical of GoDaddy’s DNS infrastructure. The domain is currently listed on three security blocklists, confirming that external threat‑intelligence feeds have flagged it as malicious. Independent detection platforms have also taken action: PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL have each blocked the domain, providing corroborating evidence of its phishing intent. The domain’s status remains active, meaning it continues to resolve and potentially serve malicious content. While the exact phishing payload, page title, or targeted brand have not been disclosed in the available intelligence, the combination of recent registration, dedicated hosting, blocklist presence, and multiple vendor blocks establishes a high confidence that the domain is being used to harvest credentials or otherwise deceive users. Defenders should add crunchcat.run to deny‑list configurations across network perimeter devices, DNS filters, and endpoint protection suites. Continuous monitoring of DNS queries for this domain and its associated IP address is advised, as is the application of strict outbound filtering rules to prevent any potential data exfiltration. Organizations should also inform users about the emerging threat and encourage verification of any unsolicited communications that reference the domain. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260722-9EF7CD Favicon MD5: 4e59334a5635596a3d176e7e8eb102df TLS cert SHA-256: a1948cf523c508ed47e85e2535f7e5386ab2006044c778dddb6ae43998d317e6 ## 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/crunchcat.run/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=crunchcat.run 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.
