Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, likagames.xyz, is flagged as a generic phishing operation targeting users through a deceptive online gaming platform. The site presents itself as a competitive PvP (player versus player) gaming service under the brand 'LIKA,' promising real-money stakes and winner-takes-all outcomes. Analysis indicates this is a fabricated front designed to harvest user credentials, payment details, or deploy cryptocurrency drainer scripts. No legitimate gaming operator or recognized brand is associated with this infrastructure, and the domain exhibits multiple high-risk indicators consistent with fraudulent activity. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain was registered on June 16, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. It resolves to the IP address 216.198.79.1, which has been linked to prior phishing campaigns targeting financial and gaming sectors. The SSL certificate is issued by Let’s Encrypt, a common choice for threat actors due to its free and automated issuance process. VirusTotal reports a detection score of 2/95 security vendors, while AlienVault OTX lists the domain in two threat intelligence pulses. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0/100, and no entries were found in Google Safe Browsing at the time of assessment. The domain appears on multiple blocklists, though the exact count remains unconfirmed due to varying feed sources. As of the latest review, likagames.xyz remains active and poses an elevated risk to users. The site continues to resolve and serve content, suggesting the campaign is operational. Recommended response actions include immediate blacklisting of the domain and IP at the network level, revocation of the SSL certificate if feasible, and notification to hosting providers for takedown. Users who have interacted with the site should be advised to reset credentials, monitor financial accounts, and scan devices for malware. Despite mitigation efforts, residual risk persists due to potential latency in threat intelligence propagation and the transient nature of phishing infrastructure. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 3/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-004F00 Favicon MD5: e15f984b6b0eda8168ebdaf3a3c09f84 ## 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/likagames.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=likagames.xyz 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.
