# PhishDestroy threat dossier — epicrush.info ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-30 01:57:28 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/epicrush.info/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Epic Games ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 14/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, ESET, Emsisoft, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Netcraft, OpenPhish, SOCRadar, Sophos, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.49.2 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Global Domain Group LLC Nameservers: grace.ns.cloudflare.com, rene.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-04-14 Expires: 2027-04-14 Page title: Fortnite Inventory Checker | Epic Games HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YE1 Expires: 2026-09-10 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 992a414da2f7d28d6c90fd5a1ba1d8d00b2c8dc20405173034a2598748a43809 ## 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: 2026-04-14 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-28 18:56:41 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-28 17:04:50 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-30 01:29:00 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-29 12:14:13 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019faa3d-03b6-7305-b536-d07f6bdb3194/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/4c931f18-1414-4e1a-a614-9099141302f1 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/epicrush.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.epicrush.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=epicrush.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/epicrush.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/epicrush.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-28 19:00:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] epicrush.info Safety Check — Generic Phishing Domain Detected Analysis of epicrush.info indicates this domain is actively engaged in generic phishing activity as of July 28, 2026. The domain resolves to IP address 172.67.139.226, a Cloudflare-hosted endpoint that has been associated with multiple confirmed phishing campaigns. Infrastructure review shows the domain was registered on April 14, 2026, through registrar Global Domain Group LLC, with nameservers grace.ns.cloudflare.com and rene.ns.cloudflare.com, suggesting Cloudflare as both DNS provider and potential traffic proxy. Detection metrics reveal the domain appears on two independent security blocklists and is blocked by PhishDestroy and OpenPhish, two specialized anti-phishing services. VirusTotal scanning reports 14 of 91 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, providing cross-vendor confirmation of phishing characteristics. No specific brand impersonation or targeted scam category is identified in available metadata; the exact content served by the domain remains unanalyzed. Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk and implement blocking at both DNS and network perimeter levels. The continued resolution of the domain and absence of takedown action from the registrar or hosting provider indicate ongoing operational status. Organizations are advised to monitor related Cloudflare IP ranges for similar activity, given the infrastructure reuse patterns observed in this campaign. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260728-5FD4EB Favicon MD5: 195d82e6464344fd0ef2ca0c79879a9f TLS cert SHA-256: 992a414da2f7d28d6c90fd5a1ba1d8d00b2c8dc20405173034a2598748a43809 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/epicrush.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=epicrush.info 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
