(Live-status flag is stale — last probe 19 days ago.) Reports filed: 1 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-01-28 05:00:44 UTC Days since first notice: 80 — no registrar action, domain remains online Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies. Per-report timeline: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/flipgames.com/#coordinated-suppression ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-01-24 13:48:57 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-03-31 01:16:11 UTC (STALE — 19 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-03-15 12:08:28 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 19 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 19 days stale) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019bf042-2cb5-722d-addf-925302253020/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/9530ebcc-bb82-4cf3-9aba-d0a760d1c20c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/flipgames.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.flipgames.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=flipgames.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/flipgames.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/flipgames.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 00:50:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies flipgames.com as a phishing domain designed to lure users under the guise of offering free online games. Although the risk level is currently assessed as low, phishing campaigns like this pose threats by attempting to steal sensitive user data through deceptive means. Users should remain cautious as such sites may still impact unsuspecting visitors. The domain flipgames.com was registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC on February 21, 2026. It resolved to the IP address 87.236.16.244 and was listed on one security blocklist. VirusTotal reported a single detection out of 95 security vendors. Currently, the domain has been taken offline, reducing the immediate threat it poses. The Gridinsoft trust score for this domain is 0/100, indicating very low trustworthiness. Users are advised to refrain from visiting flipgames.com or providing any credentials or personal information if encountered. Maintaining updated security software and utilizing domain blocklists from trusted sources can further protect against similar phishing threats. If users suspect they have interacted with this domain, checking for unauthorized activity on their accounts and changing passwords is recommended. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/93 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1769262519-flipgames.com Favicon SHA-256: aebb08b12b8176ca171f2e9c82d0165d0bd4bb03df69cd2c6a2ceff055c841b6 TLS cert SHA-256: eb421097a5502eff1bad64fab8cf2470d2f83b28686a2d8a0a3ead35fc29aa87 ## 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/flipgames.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=flipgames.com 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.
