Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response.

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: 2026-04-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-21 11:36:51 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-23 13:40:09 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 00:28:02 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019daf2e-17cf-727d-83f4-11ae206846cc/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/cryptel.cash crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.cryptel.cash Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=cryptel.cash AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/cryptel.cash URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/cryptel.cash/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-21 11:37:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies cryptel.cash as an active phishing domain masquerading as a legitimate crypto wallet service, specifically targeting users with deceptive login prompts designed to steal cryptocurrency credentials. This site employs social engineering tactics to trick visitors into entering sensitive wallet information under the guise of a secure login portal. The domain was registered recently and is hosted on infrastructure that evades traditional detection mechanisms, making it particularly dangerous for unwary users. This domain resolves to IP address 104.21.67.15 and currently holds a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which may lend false legitimacy to users who rely on HTTPS indicators. VirusTotal analysis reveals the site remains undetected by all 95 security engines, underlining the urgency of proactive threat intelligence. The domain appears to have been created recently, though exact creation and registrar details remain under investigation. Despite low current detection rates, PhishDestroy has flagged this domain as active and engaging in credential harvesting activities. Users who have visited cryptel.cash should immediately cease any interaction with the site and scan their devices for malware or unauthorized access. If any credentials were entered, change passwords for the compromised account and all associated wallets immediately, then enable two-factor authentication where available. Report the domain to your email provider and browser security teams to aid in blocklisting. Consider using a password manager to avoid manually entering credentials on unfamiliar sites, and verify any crypto-related service only through official channels before trusting login prompts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: d0b1c6ea71bd1509320052f9f8fea68c TLS cert SHA-256: 9e6d37a9e03ff0ceca7f9f7b492b027b57dec707ff9440e41285cb3746ef222b ## 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/cryptel.cash/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cryptel.cash 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.
