Registrar: Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — Trustname / Fewmoretaps OU !!! Trustname (IANA #4318) is a shell company declaring EUR 120 annual revenue, 1 employee, negative equity, Belarusian ownership. Explicitly advertises itself as 'bulletproof' in its DNS TXT records.

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: 2026-04-29 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-08 22:10:00 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-13 04:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-09 00:17:16 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f4358-a2fe-7173-9501-19c192b0bccd/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/play.neohox.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.play.neohox.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=play.neohox.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/play.neohox.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/play.neohox.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-08 22:25:45 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 brand impersonation threat specifically targeting users of crypto casino and blockchain-based gambling platforms. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to deceive visitors into believing they are interacting with the legitimate Neohox online casino, potentially facilitating unauthorized transactions or credential harvesting. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain play.neohox.com was registered on April 29, 2026, through Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com. It resolves to IP address 172.67.158.56 and presents a page titled 'Neohox: Most Popular Online Crypto Casino Based on Blockchain.' Security vendor detections on VirusTotal report 11/95 flags, while the domain remains active with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. The creation date suggests recent deployment, and no evidence indicates takedown or blocklisting at this time. Mitigation requires immediate action from security teams and end users. Network administrators should implement DNS-level blocking for play.neohox.com and its resolving IP 172.67.158.56. Users should verify domain authenticity before engaging with crypto gambling platforms, especially those soliciting deposits or login credentials. Wallet providers and exchanges are advised to monitor transactions originating from this domain and issue warnings to customers attempting to interact with it. Given the high-risk nature of brand impersonation in crypto contexts, all interactions with this infrastructure should be treated as potentially malicious. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 50679c0c5e3ed56d05c1d0ed312419a7 TLS cert SHA-256: e2d2e18ad77504cc88d2d5bbd38feae4c6e4080566c7d5c3e2bdfde1c94a6766 ## 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/play.neohox.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=play.neohox.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
