# PhishDestroy threat dossier — faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-30 10:24:51 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 91/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Generic Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 7/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, Fortinet, G-Data, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.19.156.82 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Nur einen Moment… ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: WE1 Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:22:44 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-02-26 23:22:44 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-30 12:21:22 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 00:27:25 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019832e9-30e2-74d9-8f51-c468088d19d1/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-24 00:52:05 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro: Confirmed Phishing Site faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro was registered on 21 February 2026 and shortly thereafter began serving a page with the title “Nur einen Moment…”. The site was hosted behind Cloudflare (ASN 13335) and resolved to IP 104.19.156.82, which geolocates to the United States. Analysis by multiple security vendors shows that seven of ninety‑three scanners on VirusTotal flagged the domain as malicious, and the site appears on one external blocklist. The domain was also listed by PhishDestroy as blocked, and the Gridinsoft trust score is 0 / 100, indicating a lack of confidence in its legitimacy. The SSL certificate presented as “WE1”, a non‑standard identifier that offers no additional validation. As of the reporting date the site has been taken offline, so direct interaction is not possible, but the historical evidence confirms it operated as a generic phishing portal. The single blocklist listing suggests limited exposure, but the combination of low trust score, certificate anomaly, and multiple vendor detections indicates a high confidence of malicious intent. Defenders should continue to block the domain and its associated IP at network perimeter, update URL filtering policies, and monitor for any re‑registration attempts. Because the site’s content beyond the title has not been captured, further investigation should focus on any residual redirects or payloads that may persist in cached DNS or CDN entries. ## 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/faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=faceit.matchmaking5v5.pro 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.
