Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: gabriel.ns.cloudflare.com, nola.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2022-05-18 Expires: 2027-05-18 Page title: SLOT88: Link Login Slot Gacor Dengan Vega168 Gampang Menang Anti Kalah Mantap HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-10-02 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d63fd7cdb7349b8572e297d43c8c227a70a85c8dbf29c84043d45ffb3bac6dba Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - thelocalcovington.com ## 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: 2022-05-18 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-05 21:41:24 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-14 04:20:38 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-07 00:01:01 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f33cb-ccaf-7719-9bfc-630efb9746bd/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/local.thelocalcovington.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.local.thelocalcovington.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=local.thelocalcovington.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/local.thelocalcovington.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/local.thelocalcovington.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-05 21:44:40 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 currently under investigation for hosting generic_phishing content targeting online gambling credentials, specifically branded as SLOT88. Analysis indicates the page title explicitly advertises fraudulent login portals ('SLOT88: Link Login Slot Gacor Dengan Vega168 Gampang Menang Anti Kalah Mantap'), suggesting an intent to harvest user credentials through deceptive gambling-themed interfaces. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain local.thelocalcovington.com resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3 and was registered on May 18, 2022, through GoDaddy.com, LLC. Despite its age, the domain remains undetected by antivirus engines, with 0/95 detections on VirusTotal as of the latest scan. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, which may lend an appearance of legitimacy. No blocklist entries or trust score downgrades have been recorded, though this aligns with the domain's low detection rate and potential evasion tactics. Mitigation steps for this specific threat type include blocking the domain and its resolving IP (188.114.97.3) at the network perimeter. Organizations should deploy web filtering rules to prevent access to gambling-themed phishing pages, particularly those mimicking SLOT88 or Vega168. Endpoint protection should be configured to flag or quarantine any processes attempting to establish connections to this domain. Users should be trained to recognize deceptive login prompts and verify domain authenticity before entering credentials. Monitoring for credential reuse across corporate systems is recommended, given the domain's focus on credential harvesting.

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 (operator 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/local.thelocalcovington.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=local.thelocalcovington.com 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
