PhishDestroy threat report
PhishDestroy’s intake system flagged the domain as malicious based on a VirusTotal detection and the page’s promotion of PayID‑based gambling. The domain was first observed by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-23, returning an HTTP 200 response at that time.
PayID gambling sites typically lure users with promises of fast deposits, high payouts and bonuses, then collect payment details or direct victims to fraudulent platforms. The harvested information can be used for unauthorized transactions or identity theft.
VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-10-22 and reported one malicious detection out of 92 engines, with Fortinet labeling it as phishing. Google Safe Browsing checked the domain on 2026-10-23 and did not flag it. urlscan captured the site on 2026-10-20, gave an overall clean verdict but its machine‑learning engine assigned a malicious score of 92; PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist marks the domain as malicious while external blocklists returned zero hits on 2026-10-22, and OTX recorded no pulses on 2026-10-23.
The domain was registered with GoDaddy.com, LLC on 2025-05-15, giving it an age of 526 days at the time of observation. DNS records recorded on 2026-10-23 listed Cloudflare A addresses 104.21.89.66 and 172.67.156.229 and corresponding AAAA addresses 2606:4700:3037::ac43:9ce5 and 2606:4700:3036::6815:5942. The TLS certificate, issued by Google Trust Services, was valid from 2026-09-23 to 2026-12-22. The site used Cloudflare’s nameservers (max.ns.cloudflare.com, nina.ns.cloudflare.com) and did not have DNSSEC enabled.
Users should avoid entering any personal, payment, or PayID information on this site and change any credentials that may have been submitted. Organizations should block horizon-protocol.com at the DNS or proxy level and review access logs for connections to the recorded Cloudflare IP addresses.

No. PhishDestroy classifies horizon-protocol.com as a gambling scam (risk: critical, 78/100); it was first detected on 2026-10-23. VirusTotal: 1/92 engines flag it. Treat the site as unsafe.
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on horizon-protocol.com. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.
Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.
