Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] gold-gains.org Phishing – High Risk Detected The domain gold-gains.org was registered on September 29, 2025 through Global Domain Group LLC and remains active as of the report date, July 27, 2026. Technical resolution points to the IPv4 address 104.21.25.173, which is hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure and is served by the authoritative name servers ernest.ns.cloudflare.com and stevie.ns.cloudflare.com. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy feed, indicating prior detection of malicious activity. VirusTotal analysis shows that ten of ninety‑one scanned security vendors have flagged the domain, reinforcing the suspicion of malicious intent. The threat classification provided is generic phishing, and the risk level is assessed as high, reflecting the potential for credential harvesting or other fraudulent operations. No public information is currently available regarding the site’s HTTP status code, SSL/TLS certificate details, Safe Browsing verdict, or page title, leaving those vectors unverified at this time. Defenders should add gold-gains.org to network deny lists, enforce DNS sinkholing where possible, and monitor outbound connections to the associated IP address 104.21.25.173 for anomalous traffic. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as additional indicators such as content snapshots or further vendor detections may emerge. Organizations employing email filtering should treat any messages referencing gold-gains.org as malicious and quarantine them accordingly. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260727-293E6A Favicon MD5: b9e9cfccd15ebf492b4410f605037a10 TLS cert SHA-256: 5256da711bcfecc5c82d218739347f1f6fa7ac3751f09b5429ee95d94382fefe ## 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/gold-gains.org/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=gold-gains.org 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.
