“AML Check - The full-fledged crypto compliance solution”
Evidence Summary
etherexplorer.net is currently active and has been identified as a high‑risk generic phishing site. The domain was registered on July 28, 2026 through Web Commerce Communications Limited dba WebNic.cc and resolves to the IPv4 address 188.114.96.3. DNS resolution is served by Cloudflare name servers addilyn.ns.cloudflare.com and kurt.ns.cloudflare.com, and the host presents Cloudflare‑managed services including HSTS, Cloudflare Browser Insights and HTTP/3 support. Threat intelligence sources show the domain appearing on three public blocklists and being listed by PhishDestroy, MetaMask and SEAL.
AlienVault OTX includes the domain in one pulse, indicating at least one external report of malicious activity. VirusTotal scans returned twelve positive detections out of ninety‑one participating security vendors, confirming that multiple independent scanners have flagged the site as malicious. The short age of the domain (registered less than a week before the report date) and its rapid appearance on blocklists suggest a purpose‑built infrastructure for phishing. No public SSL certificate details, page title, or content analysis are available at this time, leaving the exact phishing lure unspecified.
However, the combination of registrar, hosting on a Cloudflare edge, and immediate blocklist inclusion aligns with typical patterns used for credential‑ harvesting campaigns. Defenders should add 188.114.96.3 to network‑level deny lists, block etherexplorer.net at DNS resolvers, and update URL filtering rules to include the identified blocklist sources. Continuous monitoring of the domain’s DNS records and any future VirusTotal or OTX updates is recommended to capture potential changes in hosting or detection status. Organizations employing anti‑phishing gateways should ensure that the domain is explicitly denied to prevent end‑user exposure.
