Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies epiccoin-miners.ltd as a medium risk domain primarily associated with generic phishing activities. This classification indicates the domain was likely used to deceive visitors into divulging sensitive information or credentials under false pretenses. Supporting this risk assessment, epiccoin-miners.ltd was flagged by 6 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal and appears on three separate security blocklists. It is also referenced in one threat intelligence pulse on AlienVault OTX, further confirming its suspicious nature. The domain was registered through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu and resolved to the IP address 104.21.72.179. Additionally, Scamadviser assigns it a very low trust score of 1 out of 100, suggesting significant concerns about its legitimacy. Currently, epiccoin-miners.ltd is offline, which reduces immediate threat exposure. Users are advised to avoid interacting with this domain or providing any personal information related to it. Continuous monitoring and the use of updated security tools are recommended to prevent potential phishing attempts from similar domains. PhishDestroy encourages vigilance and caution when encountering unknown cryptocurrency-related sites like this one. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: 4e4cb0abdc81f9302aec899a117786526e33d575d5c4f374c17f147fccab86a7 ## 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/epiccoin-miners.ltd/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=epiccoin-miners.ltd 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.
