Domain eventually taken down after 2 abuse notice(s). Reports filed: 2 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-04-19 14:41:41 UTC Latest report: 2026-04-20 15:00:08 UTC Days since first notice: 2 (eventually taken down) ICANN Compliance CC'd on at least one escalation — non-response is on record. Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies. Per-report timeline: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/luckux.com/#coordinated-suppression ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-19 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-19 14:41:41 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-19 11:44:49 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-21 16:09:04 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-21 04:35:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) 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/019da58b-3fe1-7328-abc0-bd9d5f147d99/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/b8d21f07-a53a-48d6-926f-27075ec79ec3 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/luckux.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.luckux.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=luckux.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/luckux.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/luckux.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-19 14:42:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies luckux.com as a live high-risk domain engaged in direct brand impersonation of Base, a prominent Layer-2 blockchain network. The site masquerades as an official crypto casino platform built on the Base chain, attempting to harvest credentials and funds from users who believe they are accessing a legitimate service. Blockchain security teams have confirmed this domain is not affiliated with Base in any capacity, and every interaction with the platform risks financial loss and credential theft. This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy after VirusTotal analysis showed only 1 out of 95 security vendors currently detect the threat. The domain resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3 and was issued an SSL certificate by Let’s Encrypt, giving it a deceptive appearance of legitimacy. Registrar data reveals the domain was created recently, suggesting a short lifespan intended to avoid long-term detection. Public blocklists already show limited coverage, with only 1 vendor flagging it, indicating a fast-evolving threat that bypasses traditional defenses. Users who visited luckux.com should immediately disconnect from the site, clear browser cache and cookies, and avoid entering any credentials or cryptocurrency deposits. If you used the same password on this site as elsewhere, change it immediately on all accounts. Report this domain to your antivirus provider and consider using a password manager with breach detection. Do not trust any pop-ups or redirect links on the site.

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/luckux.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=luckux.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
