Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] crypt0c.com: Confirmed Phishing Site Analysis of crypt0c.com, created on November 26, 2024 and currently listed as active, shows a high‑risk phishing infrastructure targeting users through social engineering techniques. The domain is delegated to Cloudflare name servers piotr.ns.cloudflare.com and rayne.ns.cloudflare.com and resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3, a host frequently leveraged for malicious content due to its reputable CDN reputation and ease of acquisition. VirusTotal records indicate that 13 of 91 security vendors flag the domain as malicious, reinforcing the suspicion raised by other sources. Google Safe Browsing classifies the site as a social engineering threat, and the domain appears on at least one public security blocklist. PhishDestroy has also added crypt0c.com to its blocklist, confirming active monitoring by anti‑phishing services. The registrar for crypt0c.com is Name.com, Inc., a well‑known registrar that does not inherently imply legitimacy; registration details alone cannot validate the site’s purpose. No public information about the site’s page title, SSL certificate, or HTTP response codes is available, leaving those vectors unverified. Consequently, the precise content served by the domain remains uncertain, but the combined detection signals strongly indicate a phishing operation. Defenders should immediately block network resolution to 188.114.97.3 and enforce DNS filtering for crypt0c.com. Email security gateways should flag any messages containing links to the domain, and endpoint protection solutions should be updated to reflect the 13 vendor detections. Continuous monitoring of Cloudflare name server changes and periodic re‑scans via VirusTotal are recommended to capture any evolution of the site’s malicious payload. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260727-1B1AAC Favicon MD5: edd108103a2d8384e330b7782f51cdb7 TLS cert SHA-256: beff560757c77ef3de54f2fbd9e634d1c97ecd0f4e87d3d7dd197a5cfc97da73 ## 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/crypt0c.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=crypt0c.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.
