# PhishDestroy threat dossier — dogecoin.fan ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-06 16:58:00 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/dogecoin.fan/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 10/91 security vendors flagged this domain Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 185.199.108.153 (US, San Francisco) ASN: AS54113 Fastly, Inc. Hosting org: GitHub, Inc Registrar: Name.com, Inc. Nameservers: ns1cvw.name.com, ns2nsy.name.com, ns3jmt.name.com, ns4jnz.name.com Registered: 2022-09-03 Expires: 2026-09-03 Page title: 狗狗幣中文社群 - Dogecoin Fans HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-07-30 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: a61e0ea1db12d57b0f06aa87828109a7699f198ebf8173e6babf32e3e0fbaf13 ## 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: 2022-09-03 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-01 20:46:18 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-01 17:47:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-06 18:31:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 17:32:42 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019de4a4-20f9-7479-a389-799e6551bcc6/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/cab6663e-27df-4dda-ace5-4c1408626145 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/dogecoin.fan crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.dogecoin.fan Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=dogecoin.fan AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/dogecoin.fan URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/dogecoin.fan/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-01 20:47:16 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified an active typosquatting domain, dogecoin.fan, which impersonates the legitimate cryptocurrency Dogecoin to deceive users into participating in a fake 'giveaway' scam. The domain mimics the branding and messaging of the real Dogecoin project to lure victims into connecting their cryptocurrency wallets or transferring funds under the false promise of receiving free tokens. Such tactics are common in cryptocurrency scams, where threat actors exploit the hype and volatility of digital assets to maximize victim engagement and financial gain. This domain was flagged with a risk status of 'under_investigation' and poses a significant threat due to its deceptive nature. It currently shows 0/95 detections on VirusTotal, indicating that most antivirus engines have not yet flagged it. The domain resolves to IP address 185.199.108.153 and was registered through Name.com, Inc. on September 3, 2022. It also utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which may further legitimize its appearance to unsuspecting users. The combination of a recently registered domain, low detection rates, and the use of a trusted SSL provider makes this a stealthy and effective threat vector. Users who have visited dogecoin.fan should immediately cease any interaction with the site and disconnect from it. Avoid entering any personal information, wallet credentials, or cryptocurrency details, as these could be harvested by the scammers. If you connected a wallet or approved any transactions, revoke permissions immediately through your wallet provider and report the incident to the appropriate cryptocurrency fraud authorities. Additionally, block the domain at your network level and report it to your domain registrar or hosting provider to help mitigate further exposure. Stay vigilant for similar typosquatting domains and always verify URLs and offers before engaging with cryptocurrency-related websites. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 10/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260501-320F19 Favicon MD5: fc33b61d497becdaa88315e670d1716d TLS cert SHA-256: a61e0ea1db12d57b0f06aa87828109a7699f198ebf8173e6babf32e3e0fbaf13 ## 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/dogecoin.fan/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=dogecoin.fan 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.
