Is dexe.run a Cryptocurrency Phishing Scam?

Analysis of the domain dexe.run indicates it is an active phishing threat targeting cryptocurrency users. Registered on March 06, 2026, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, the domain remains operational as of July 21, 2026. Infrastructure analysis reveals Cloudflare hosting, with nameservers nash.ns.cloudflare.com and teagan.ns.cloudflare.com, and resolution to IP address 172.67.198.206. Security vendor detections on VirusTotal show 6 of 95 engines flagging the domain, while it is also blocked by PhishDestroy and appears on one additional security blocklist. The domain's classification as a cryptocurrency-related phishing site is supported by its naming pattern and detection context, though the exact content or targeted platform has not been confirmed through page analysis. Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk and implement blocking at the DNS or network level. The use of Cloudflare nameservers and hosting may complicate takedown efforts, but monitoring for related IP or certificate changes is recommended. No SSL or HTTP status anomalies were reported in the available data, but the domain's continued activity despite detections suggests persistent malicious intent.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260721-A67363
Favicon MD5:       3ca2590d2b1453da50e0e487cbc96d51
TLS cert SHA-256:      de74f162f7c43949ddf4668f3f7b77773d7892e492aab92f3a432bb1c223b54c

## 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.
