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: 2026-03-30 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 14:38:49 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-28 12:48:03 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-01 16:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-29 00:03:03 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0e3b-fbdb-716e-b594-d2b90973af6e/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/7fd238e1-cfa5-4c62-b9b7-e78a89fee41f Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/fortnitecheck.top crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.fortnitecheck.top Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=fortnitecheck.top AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/fortnitecheck.top URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/fortnitecheck.top/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 15:00:33 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, fortnitecheck.top, poses as a Fortnite Inventory Checker affiliated with Epic Games, a well-known gaming platform. The site is designed to deceive users into entering sensitive credentials, such as login details or payment information, under the pretense of providing in-game inventory verification. Such phishing attempts can lead to account takeovers, financial loss, or unauthorized access to personal data. Users may be lured by promises of free in-game items, currency, or account upgrades, which are common tactics in gaming-related phishing schemes. Analysis indicates that fortnitecheck.top was registered on March 30, 2026, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, a registrar frequently associated with newly created suspicious domains. The domain resolves to the IP address 172.67.129.79, which may host additional malicious or deceptive content. As of the latest assessment, the site has not been flagged by any of the 95 security engines on VirusTotal, suggesting it is either newly deployed or employs evasion techniques to avoid detection. The page title, 'Fortnite Inventory Checker | Epic Games,' closely mimics legitimate Epic Games branding, increasing its credibility to unsuspecting users. If you or someone you know has visited fortnitecheck.top, immediate action is required to mitigate potential risks. First, refrain from entering any personal or account-related information on the site. If credentials were already submitted, change the passwords for the affected accounts, particularly those linked to Epic Games or payment methods, using a strong, unique password for each. Enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) where available to add an extra layer of security. Monitor accounts for unusual activity, such as unauthorized purchases or logins, and report any suspicious transactions to the relevant platform. Additionally, consider running a full scan of the device used to access the site to detect and remove any potential malware or keyloggers that may have been installed. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-876AD6 Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: 297b0b0f13879c117f27e24767fe641b083236043399b92d807c2b0703a98d4b ## 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/fortnitecheck.top/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fortnitecheck.top 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.
