Hosting org: NForce Entertainment B.V Registrar: CommuniGal Communication Ltd. Nameservers: ns1.badgerdns.com, ns2.badgerdns.com Registered: 2026-04-06 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: pending notification queue. No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-06 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-06 16:40:11 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-06 13:40:56 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-21 16:12:25 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-07 01:55:33 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners 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/019d6300-7e99-738e-9211-3e202016b774/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/38def222-154d-4a89-bb0e-d2da14d0167e Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/fortnitechecker.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.fortnitechecker.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=fortnitechecker.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/fortnitechecker.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/fortnitechecker.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-06 16:44:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies fortnitechecker.com as a live Fortnite account checker phishing site currently under investigation for harvesting user credentials. This domain was flagged with 0/95 VirusTotal detections, registered through CommuniGal Communication Ltd on May 31, 2022, and resolves to IP 77.247.179.87 using a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. The specific threat posed by fortnitechecker.com is credential theft via a counterfeit Fortnite account validator page. Attackers trick players into entering their Epic Games login details under the guise of checking account status, then silently exfiltrate usernames and passwords. Once harvested, credentials are likely used to hijack accounts, sell rare skins on black markets, or leverage in-game assets for ransom. The domain’s recent creation date combined with zero antivirus detections suggests this campaign is still in early deployment, increasing the risk of undetected compromise. Technical indicators reinforce the risk: the domain resolves to a single IP address (77.247.179.87) operated by CommuniGal Communication Ltd, a registrar known for hosting multiple gaming-themed scams. The Let’s Encrypt certificate provides a false sense of legitimacy, while zero VirusTotal detections (0/95 engines) indicate a low initial detection rate, allowing the site to remain active longer. Given the domain’s age (created May 31, 2022) and lack of blocklist presence, users who have visited this site should immediately change their Epic Games password, enable two-factor authentication, and scan devices for malware using updated security tools. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260406-31B870 ## 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/fortnitechecker.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fortnitechecker.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.
