# PhishDestroy threat dossier — npcmonad.xyz ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-04 02:20:23 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/npcmonad.xyz/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Monad ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Fortinet AlienVault OTX: 2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 163.61.188.7 (US, Staten Island) ASN: AS153568 NEW DHAKA HARDWARE Hosting org: MIT Registrar: OwnRegistrar, Inc. Nameservers: dns1.lytehosting.com, dns2.lytehosting.com, dns3.lytehosting.com, dns4.lytehosting.com Registered: 2026-05-28 Expires: 2027-05-28 Page title: NPC ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR1 Expires: 2026-08-26 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 42aa3b4a5b522ceeb740f6250438014d7dd40b360f896d2e58620b4f7938fc71 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - npcmonad.bristoken.xyz - www.npcmonad.bristoken.xyz ## 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: 2026-05-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-01 04:12:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-01 02:47:51 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-04 00:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-01 12:02:52 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1b71-3854-71d9-aafd-976f4b4063b8/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/5f457f16-f799-4da5-bb56-215d504ca3ef Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/npcmonad.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.npcmonad.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=npcmonad.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/npcmonad.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/npcmonad.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-01 04:16:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, npcmonad.xyz, is flagged as an active brand impersonation threat specifically targeting Monad, a recognized blockchain platform. Analysis indicates the site is designed to deceive users into believing they are interacting with official Monad infrastructure, likely to harvest credentials, private keys, or facilitate unauthorized transactions. The page title 'NPC' suggests an attempt to masquerade as a legitimate portal while avoiding direct association with the brand name in metadata, a common tactic in phishing campaigns. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain is detected by 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating limited but present recognition of its malicious nature. It is registered through OwnRegistrar, Inc., and resolves to the IP address 163.61.188.7. The domain was created on May 28, 2026, which, given the future date, suggests either a typographical error in the registration data or an attempt to obscure its true age. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, providing a veneer of legitimacy while failing to mitigate the underlying threat. No Google Safe Browsing (GSB) flags or additional blocklist entries were identified at the time of assessment, further highlighting the domain's ability to evade detection. As of the latest assessment, npcmonad.xyz remains active and poses a high risk to users. Immediate response actions are recommended, including the addition of the domain and its associated IP to enterprise blocklists, as well as the dissemination of threat intelligence to relevant stakeholders. Despite the low detection rate, the domain's infrastructure and impersonation tactics warrant proactive mitigation. Users are advised to verify the authenticity of any Monad-related communications or websites, avoid interacting with npcmonad.xyz, and report the domain to security teams for further investigation. The remaining risk is substantial due to the domain's active status and the potential for credential or asset compromise. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260701-1B4F0F Favicon MD5: 577486085fbd7bd3af030a7262d6bb21 TLS cert SHA-256: 42aa3b4a5b522ceeb740f6250438014d7dd40b360f896d2e58620b4f7938fc71 ## 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 (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/npcmonad.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=npcmonad.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
