# PhishDestroy threat dossier — h5.higico.top ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-24 19:05:52 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/h5.higico.top/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Bitget ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 14/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Emsisoft, Fortinet, G-Data, LevelBlue, Netcraft, Seclookup, Sophos, Webroot URLQuery: 4 detections ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 223.26.62.92 (HK, Hung Hom) ASN: AS152194 CTG Server Limited Hosting org: Mega II Registrar: Hongkong Kouming International Limited Nameservers: ns1.kouming.net, ns2.kouming.net Registered: 2026-02-11 Page title: BitGet ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-07-11 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 84223683cb4f6668cfb205bed8275052ac25ea38827fe33fe67fcc93cc57171a Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - h5.bgnaotc.com - h5.bgusotc.com - h5.blockchain-gpu.xyz - www.bgnaotc.com - www.bgusotc.com - www.blockchain-gpu.xyz - www.higico.top ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. 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: 2026-02-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-15 16:47:56 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-04-15 13:51:57 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-23 01:28:04 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 00:28:02 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d9162-70b4-741b-9a8f-74a716e27d8d/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/7f1d30bb-c953-49b2-a949-8df37fa14a3b Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/h5.higico.top crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.h5.higico.top Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=h5.higico.top AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/h5.higico.top URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/h5.higico.top/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-15 16:49:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies h5.higico.top as an active brand impersonation page targeting Bitget users. This domain was flagged by 10 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, confirming malicious intent. Registered through Hongkong Kouming International Limited on February 11, 2026, the site resolves to IP 223.26.62.92 and employs a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. Its page title matches Bitget’s branding, creating a deceptive user experience designed to harvest login credentials or financial details. This domain’s high-risk status reflects its recent creation, low detection rate, and direct impersonation of a major cryptocurrency exchange. At just days old, h5.higico.top evades broader blocklists due to minimal flagging, allowing it to operate undetected. The precise threat is credential theft via a spoofed Bitget login portal, where user inputs are siphoned to attacker-controlled infrastructure. Technical indicators include the use of a valid SSL certificate to bypass browser warnings, a domain name designed to resemble Bitget’s official subdomains, and targeting of users through phishing emails or fake ads. The combination of recent registration, specific impersonation, and partial detection suggests an emerging campaign actively seeking victims. If you visited h5.higico.top or entered credentials, immediately change your Bitget password from a known-safe device and enable two-factor authentication. Scan your device for malware using a reputable antivirus tool, as this site may have deployed infostealers. Report the domain to Bitget’s security team via their official channels and your local cybercrime unit. Avoid clicking links from unsolicited messages; always verify URLs by typing them manually or using bookmarks. Block the IP 223.26.62.92 and domain h5.higico.top via your firewall or network settings to prevent further exposure. Exercise heightened caution with all cryptocurrency-related communications, as threat actors frequently exploit brand trust in this sector. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 14/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260415-9B7298 Favicon MD5: 423084691598a88bd2a268d0686096bf TLS cert SHA-256: 84223683cb4f6668cfb205bed8275052ac25ea38827fe33fe67fcc93cc57171a ## 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/h5.higico.top/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=h5.higico.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.
