92 Threat Score

Analyst Security Overview

AI-Generated

The domain echallengem.net was designed to impersonate an eSports and gaming community, aiming to deceive users into providing personal information. It received a low VirusTotal score of 18/95, indicating significant risks. While Scamadviser rates it as 'Very Likely Safe' with a trust score of 86, it also flags concerns due to its young age and association with a registrar known for hosting scams. Gridinsoft classifies it as 'Suspicious' with a trust score of 1.

This domain was registered through PDR Ltd. and is only 68 days old, which raises red flags about its intentions. The IP address 147.45.45.11 has been linked with suspicious activities. Although the site had a valid SSL certificate, the combination of signals related to hosting, games, and the low traffic rank underscores its dubious nature. The recent activity and overall characteristics suggest a high likelihood of fraudulent motives.

Currently, echallengem.net is taken down. PhishDestroy has acted effectively by reporting the domain and monitoring for any potential resurgence. Continuous vigilance is advised to prevent the emergence of similar threats.

Beware of recovery scammers! After being scammed, criminals may contact you again pretending to be "recovery agents," lawyers, or investigators who claim they can retrieve your lost funds — for a fee. This is a second scam. No legitimate service will ask for upfront payment to recover stolen crypto. Learn more about recovery fraud →
