# PhishDestroy threat dossier — gemini-markets.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-29 17:38:53 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/gemini-markets.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- HIGH THREAT — malicious activity confirmed Composite threat score: 79/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Gemini ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: LevelBlue, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.96.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/namesilo-killed-our-twitter https://phishdestroy.io/xmrwallet-namesilo-exposed Nameservers: ["lennon.ns.cloudflare.com", "penny.ns.cloudflare.com"] Page title: Gemini HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-10-06 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: ca0623f522e0e356733e97282668fee70f9f51c9607fb1a22c5c1194d1949aab ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-26 08:03:08 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-29 16:20:28 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-26 08:05:13 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] gemini-markets.com Safety Check — Phishing Site Detected The domain gemini-markets.com is currently flagged as a high-risk generic phishing site. VirusTotal reports that 2 of 91 scanned security vendors have generated detections for the domain, indicating that at least a subset of scanners recognized malicious behavior. The domain is listed on a single external blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy filtering service, confirming that threat‑intelligence feeds consider it hostile. An HTTP GET returns status code 200, demonstrating that the web server is reachable and serving content, which aligns with the active status designation. Registration data shows the domain was created through NameSilo, LLC, a registrar that does not inherently imply malicious intent but provides no additional protective controls. The authoritative nameservers are lennon.ns.cloudflare.com and penny.ns.cloudflare.com, both operated by Cloudflare, suggesting the adversary is leveraging Cloudflare’s CDN and DNS infrastructure to obscure origin IP addresses. At present, no public information about the landing page’s title, brand impersonation, or credential‑harvesting form has been released, so the specific lure employed by the actor remains unknown. The limited detection footprint—only two vendor alerts and a single blocklist entry—suggests that the campaign may be in an early deployment phase or that many scanners have yet to ingest the indicator. Because the domain resolves via Cloudflare, any attempt to pinpoint the underlying host IP may be impeded by the provider’s proxying services. Security teams are advised to capture TLS handshake metadata if the site later presents HTTPS, and to correlate any observed credential submissions with known phishing patterns. Continuous re‑evaluation of the domain’s reputation should be performed, as additional detections or blocklist inclusions are likely to appear as the campaign matures. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 371636f73f99eb4a64e5d0f1a9fa1075 TLS cert SHA-256: ca0623f522e0e356733e97282668fee70f9f51c9607fb1a22c5c1194d1949aab ## 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/gemini-markets.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=gemini-markets.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
