No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-19 12:38:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-25 00:22:35 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-19 23:43:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] cryptolicense-checker.com: Confirmed Phishing Site The domain cryptolicense-checker.com is currently active and hosts a web page titled "Сrypto license checker" that returns HTTP 200. The site uses a Let’s Encrypt certificate (YR1) and resolves to 189.74.121.146, an address assigned to Sprinthost LLP in Germany. Registration was completed through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. MX records point to mail.cryptolicense-checker.com (priority 10). Nameservers are kate.ns.retry.name and kim.ns.retry.name. VirusTotal records show four of ninety‑one scanners flagging the domain, and it appears on one external blocklist. PhishDestroy already blocks the domain. The threat is classified as generic phishing with a high risk rating. No additional technical artifacts such as payloads, C2 infrastructure, or malicious binaries have been disclosed. Defenders should add the IP address and domain to outbound filtering rules, monitor DNS queries for the domain and its mail sub‑domain, and ensure that any emails from mail.cryptolicense-checker.com are quarantined. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised as further intelligence may emerge. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: a45d5bc3dd13032e8505c66e3a24d4df TLS cert SHA-256: 8cb27e0599dda9e13b4b30bc4d8e7616aa850538a2e0e873fd507910327cdac2 ## 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/cryptolicense-checker.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cryptolicense-checker.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.
