# PhishDestroy threat dossier — plasma.cex1.fun ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-13 07:02:36 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/plasma.cex1.fun/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, Webroot URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 64.29.17.65 (US, Walnut) ASN: AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. Hosting org: Vercel, Inc Registrar: HOSTINGER operations, UAB Nameservers: ns1.dns-parking.com, ns2.dns-parking.com Registered: 2025-12-01 Expires: 2026-12-01 Page title: PLASMA HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR1 Expires: 2026-09-23 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: a337f6eb31234dc9be716cea4ec93284a7460ebd831d16f512bb28f1ebee3704 ## 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: 2025-12-01 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-01 06:20:54 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-01 04:55:25 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-13 08:20:41 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/019f1be7-8a3e-7605-a863-a03cf0b93884/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/1be3a9cd-cd92-4587-97db-c4a6a71af8f8 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/plasma.cex1.fun crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.plasma.cex1.fun Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=plasma.cex1.fun AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/plasma.cex1.fun URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/plasma.cex1.fun/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-01 06:25:55 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 flagged as a high-risk credential harvesting site targeting cryptocurrency wallet users. Analysis indicates the threat type is a generic phishing campaign designed to mimic legitimate wallet interfaces, tricking victims into submitting private keys or recovery phrases. The page title 'PLASMA' suggests an attempt to impersonate a decentralized finance (DeFi) or token-related service, a common tactic in crypto-focused phishing operations. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain plasma.cex1.fun was registered on December 1, 2025, through HOSTINGER operations, UAB. It resolves to the IP address 64.29.17.65, which has been associated with prior phishing activity. Detection rates remain low but notable, with 2 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagging the domain as malicious. The domain remains active as of this assessment, utilizing a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. No widespread blocklisting or trust score degradation has been observed, likely due to its recent registration and limited exposure. Mitigation steps for this threat type include immediate blocking of the domain and IP at the network perimeter. Organizations should update endpoint protection rules to detect and prevent access to plasma.cex1.fun and its associated infrastructure. Users should be educated on verifying domain authenticity before entering sensitive credentials, particularly for crypto-related services. Monitoring for additional domains registered under the same registrar or resolving to the same IP may uncover related phishing campaigns. If credentials were entered, immediate revocation and migration to a new wallet are critical to prevent asset loss. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260701-E984D9 Favicon MD5: f10a3012022845632db32ba6f0bbe196 TLS cert SHA-256: a337f6eb31234dc9be716cea4ec93284a7460ebd831d16f512bb28f1ebee3704 ## 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/plasma.cex1.fun/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=plasma.cex1.fun 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.
