Fetched:   2026-07-18 12:37:36 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/ct.goums.cc/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 65/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Credential Phishing

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      9/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, CRDF, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Sophos, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registered:      2026-06-12
HTTP response:   502

## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
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: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-18 12:20:44 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 09:00:31 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

Is ct.goums.cc a Credential Harvesting Scam Site?

This domain, ct.goums.cc, operates as a credential harvesting phishing site targeting users through deceptive login pages. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is engineered to mimic legitimate platforms, tricking visitors into entering usernames, passwords, and other authentication details. The stolen data is typically exploited for unauthorized account access, financial fraud, or further social engineering attacks against compromised individuals or organizations.  Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators supporting this assessment. The domain was registered on June 12, 2026, through an undisclosed registrar, a timeline consistent with short-lived phishing campaigns. Detection metrics show 9 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged ct.goums.cc as malicious, while it also appears on at least one security blocklist. The site was subsequently taken offline, though similar domains may emerge using comparable infrastructure or naming patterns.  If a user interacted with ct.goums.cc, immediate mitigation steps are required. First, terminate any active sessions on the affected device to prevent ongoing data exfiltration. Next, change passwords for all accounts accessed during the exposure window, prioritizing financial, email, and administrative credentials. Enable multi-factor authentication where available to add an additional security layer. Monitor accounts for unauthorized transactions or configuration changes, and consider scanning the device for malware using updated security tools. Users should report the incident to relevant security teams or incident response platforms to aid in tracking and disrupting the campaign.

## 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.
