# PhishDestroy threat dossier — huobcoinbt.net ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-28 19:56:16 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/huobcoinbt.net/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 75/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: Bitget ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 12/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.157.25 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Nameservers: ken.ns.cloudflare.com, mckinley.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-24 Expires: 2027-06-24 Page title: huobcoinbt HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-22 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 311cb3722c6fe4e8852be68006a0703d8c04cadce839c7736c1b4e3f7c2f9127 ## 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: 2026-06-24 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-27 15:41:58 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-27 13:43:51 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 20:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-27 18:17:01 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f094f-dc78-76d5-abe3-7fbbe0803b64/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/4d51a288-6ea9-48ed-a22e-051f1119159c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/huobcoinbt.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.huobcoinbt.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=huobcoinbt.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/huobcoinbt.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/huobcoinbt.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-27 15:44:44 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as a high-risk brand impersonation threat targeting Bitget, a cryptocurrency exchange. The site employs deceptive tactics to mimic legitimate login portals, likely aiming to harvest credentials or facilitate unauthorized transactions. Analysis indicates the domain is designed to exploit users seeking Bitget services, posing a significant risk of financial loss or account compromise. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain huobcoinbt.net was registered on June 24, 2026, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. It resolves to the IP address 104.21.48.251 and presents a page title of "bitget," further confirming its intent to impersonate the legitimate platform. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, which, while common for legitimate sites, is frequently abused by malicious actors to lend false credibility. VirusTotal detections show 4 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, a relatively low but notable ratio that suggests early-stage detection or evasion techniques. The domain remains active as of this assessment, with no observed blocklist inclusions beyond VirusTotal, indicating it may still be operating under the radar of broader security measures. Mitigation steps specific to this threat type include immediate blocking of the domain and associated IP address (104.21.48.251) at the network level. Organizations and users should monitor for any attempts to access this domain, particularly within environments where cryptocurrency-related activities occur. Endpoint protection systems should be updated to include this domain in their threat intelligence feeds, and security teams should conduct retroactive log analysis to identify any prior interactions. Users should be educated on verifying domain authenticity before entering credentials, particularly for financial or cryptocurrency platforms. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) should be enforced for all accounts to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, even if credentials are compromised. Additionally, reporting the domain to relevant cybersecurity organizations and the impersonated brand (Bitget) can aid in broader takedown efforts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260627-A9902B Favicon MD5: 8af2b4b8d448b273b27ad738c2300d9f TLS cert SHA-256: 311cb3722c6fe4e8852be68006a0703d8c04cadce839c7736c1b4e3f7c2f9127 ## 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/huobcoinbt.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=huobcoinbt.net 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.
