PhishDestroy identifies goldencoins.cc as an active cryptocurrency giveaway scam that tricks users into connecting wallets or revealing seed phrases. This domain was registered on March 03, 2026 through Global Domain Group LLC and resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, where it currently operates with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. VirusTotal shows 0 out of 95 security engines flagged this site, indicating it has flown under the radar despite active phishing campaigns.  This domain poses a high risk to cryptocurrency users who may encounter it through social media ads, fake influencer promotions, or spoofed community links. The attackers behind goldencoins.cc aim to harvest private keys or trick victims into sending crypto to fraudulent addresses, leveraging trust in familiar crypto brands to build credibility.  If you visited goldencoins.cc, immediately disconnect your wallet and revoke any permissions granted. Do not enter any private keys, passwords, or seed phrases. Clear your browser cache and consider running an antivirus scan. Report the domain to your wallet provider and relevant crypto platforms to help warn others. Consider changing passwords for any services connected to this incident and monitor your crypto wallets for unauthorized transactions.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260505-B83D5B
Favicon MD5:       c3d9e7ac8ad834ae3d129c8c7a595a4f
TLS cert SHA-256:      b54776c6d291dc99013f806ce1361a5133d7c87e92ec3c28aedee9279f36d75e

## 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.
