No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-13 16:01:18 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-13 13:02:17 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-21 16:07:31 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/019d86ec-ca52-75b9-acc9-ed5452bd1e85/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/d0a7abee-7f06-43d1-a359-e89fd92e401d Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/mrbeastcasino.icu crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.mrbeastcasino.icu Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=mrbeastcasino.icu AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/mrbeastcasino.icu URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/mrbeastcasino.icu/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-13 16:03:01 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies mrbeastcasino.icu as an active crypto drainer impersonating the Base brand. This domain specifically targets cryptocurrency users by disguising itself as a legitimate online casino, luring victims with the promise of blockchain-based gaming and crypto rewards. The threat actor leverages the MrBeast brand to establish false credibility, exploiting the popularity of both the influencer and the Base ecosystem to trick users into connecting their wallets or submitting sensitive credentials. This tactic is particularly dangerous given the irreversible nature of cryptocurrency transactions, where drained funds cannot be recovered. This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy with an elevated risk rating due to its clear intent to deceive. VirusTotal analysis shows 2 out of 95 security vendors have detected this domain as malicious. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common practice among threat actors to appear legitimate. The domain is registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and was created on March 26, 2026. It resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3, which has been associated with malicious activities in the past. Despite its recent creation, this domain has already begun circulating in phishing campaigns targeting crypto enthusiasts. To mitigate the risk posed by mrbeastcasino.icu, users should avoid interacting with this domain entirely. Verify the legitimacy of any crypto-related website by cross-referencing official channels, such as the Base ecosystem's official website or social media profiles. Use tools like PhishDestroy to check domain safety before entering any credentials or connecting cryptocurrency wallets. If you have already visited this site, disconnect your wallet immediately and revoke any unintended permissions granted to suspicious domains. Report this domain to relevant authorities and security platforms to help prevent further victimization. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260413-459906 Favicon MD5: 095b185e288ed8e4d934ac78fe6a4e2e ## 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/mrbeastcasino.icu/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=mrbeastcasino.icu 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.
