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: 2026-07-04 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-08 14:49:42 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-23 16:20:29 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-22 00:09:52 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f41c6-2590-72fa-833c-56512fed9e81/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/41d3b047-8b39-4e76-a59f-23802dc29e39 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/perpluxity.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.perpluxity.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=perpluxity.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/perpluxity.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/perpluxity.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-08 14:55:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] perpluxity.xyz Fake Gaming Review Site Credential Theft Alert The domain perpluxity.xyz is currently active and engaged in credential theft targeting users of gaming review platforms. Analysis indicates the site impersonates legitimate gaming review services, presenting itself as a source for "Gaming Reviews for 2026" under the page title "Perpluxity | Clarity Before You Play." This specific threat type involves luring victims into submitting login credentials or personal information under false pretenses, likely for subsequent account compromise or identity fraud. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on July 04, 2026, through Unstoppable Domains Inc. and resolves to the IP address 45.9.117.57. Detection metrics show the domain is flagged by 2 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, a relatively low detection rate that may indicate evasion techniques or recent deployment. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, providing encrypted connections that may lend an appearance of legitimacy to unsuspecting users. No additional blocklist entries or trust scores were identified at the time of analysis, though the domain's creation date and hosting infrastructure align with patterns observed in high-risk credential harvesting campaigns. Current status remains active, with no indications of takedown or mitigation. Users and organizations are advised to block access to perpluxity.xyz at the network level and implement browser-based warnings for employees or customers. Security teams should monitor for connections to the IP 45.9.117.57 and investigate any credentials submitted to the domain. Given the low detection rate, heuristic-based detection rules targeting gaming-related phishing themes are recommended to identify similar threats. End users should be educated on verifying domain authenticity before entering credentials, particularly on sites offering gaming reviews or pre-release content. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 4f2efafac5be00251aa2a142f33fe4ba TLS cert SHA-256: 1413e111cc1df30aeda8e9b7833fe4dde5235e813eb590abf377d730d8d6c781 ## 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/perpluxity.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=perpluxity.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.
