# PhishDestroy threat dossier — hughraccoon.run ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-19 10:30:36 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/hughraccoon.run/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- ACTIVE + CLOAKED — returns HTTP 666 to scanners, real fraudulent site to victims Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Cloaking: DETECTED — domain returns custom HTTP 666 to scanners while serving fraudulent content to real users (type: status_split) (score: 4/6) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 14/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CRDF, CyRadar, Dr.Web, ESET, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Lionic, MalwareURL, SOCRadar, Sophos URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.96.3 Registrar: PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Nameservers: ["june.ns.cloudflare.com", "nikon.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-04-15 Page title: HUGH HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-06-18 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: dc8873ac9e3fdb2d3779d0a4e0e78db971687012cba25c6350b321a750e14080 ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-15 10:01:21 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-15 07:05:25 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-17 13:40:04 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-15 14:41:53 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d8ff1-1fbb-73c3-aa50-9b4898d9569b/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/a5ec8b53-aac4-4146-9cf5-373eedb39195 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/hughraccoon.run crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.hughraccoon.run Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=hughraccoon.run AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/hughraccoon.run URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/hughraccoon.run/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-15 10:01:54 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies the domain hughraccoon.run as an active crypto drainer posing an elevated risk to cryptocurrency users. This domain is not a generic phishing attempt but specifically designed to deceive visitors into connecting their crypto wallets and authorizing unauthorized transactions that drain funds. The threat actor behind this domain leverages social engineering tactics to trick users into believing they are interacting with a legitimate service, ultimately leading to financial loss. Security researchers and everyday users should treat this domain with extreme caution and avoid any interaction. This domain was flagged by 14 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and is blocked by MetaMask and SEAL security solutions. The domain uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, indicating an attempt to appear legitimate. Registered through a privacy-protected registrar, the domain resolves to an IP address associated with malicious activity. Created on 2024-03-15, hughraccoon.run has already been listed on 2 separate security blocklists, demonstrating its widespread detection as a malicious entity. Trust scores across multiple threat intelligence platforms remain critically low, reinforcing its classification as an elevated-risk domain. As of the latest analysis, hughraccoon.run remains active and continues to operate as a crypto drainer. Users are strongly advised to avoid visiting this domain and to report it to their security vendors or relevant authorities. If you have previously interacted with this domain, immediately revoke any wallet connections and transfer remaining funds to a secure wallet. Block this domain at the network level using your firewall or DNS filtering solutions. Stay vigilant against crypto drainers by verifying URLs, using hardware wallets, and enabling transaction simulation tools to detect unauthorized transfers before they occur. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260415-9B3E6B Favicon MD5: 64b4845d2df12a45cb5a05624b16a4f5 TLS cert SHA-256: dc8873ac9e3fdb2d3779d0a4e0e78db971687012cba25c6350b321a750e14080 ## 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/hughraccoon.run/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hughraccoon.run 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.
