Nameservers: ["kia.ns.cloudflare.com", "tadeo.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Google Chrome – den schnellen und sicheren Browser von Google jetzt herunterladen ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: WE1 Status: INVALID chain ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: REPORTS FILED AND IGNORED — Tucows Domains Inc. did not act on these notifications. Domain was flagged dead on 2026-03-02 21:57:10 UTC but a fresh report was filed on 2026-04-18 18:51:26 UTC — it is back or never truly suspended. Reports filed: 4 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-02-08 18:32:57 UTC Latest report: 2026-04-18 18:51:26 UTC Days since first notice: 73 — no registrar action, domain remains online ICANN Compliance CC'd on at least one escalation — non-response is on record. Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies. Per-report timeline: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pokoplay.com/#coordinated-suppression ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:21:01 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-08 18:32:59 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-21 07:21:20 UTC Flagged dead: 2026-03-02 21:57:10 UTC (SUPERSEDED — fresh report filed after this date, see ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY) Current status: ACTIVE (flagged dead but resurrected — registrar did not act on fresh reports) 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/019ce5cb-ec25-735b-9335-f66dc2ca818d/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pokoplay.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pokoplay.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pokoplay.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pokoplay.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pokoplay.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 01:25:20 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies pokoplay.com as a high-risk generic phishing domain masquerading as a popular online crypto casino platform. The site aimed to deceive users by leveraging the allure of blockchain-based gambling, attempting to harvest sensitive information under false pretenses. This activity poses significant financial and data security risks to unsuspecting visitors. The domain pokoplay.com was registered on February 21, 2026, through Tucows Domains Inc. It has appeared on one security blocklist and was flagged by 14 out of 95 VirusTotal scanning engines, indicating suspicious or malicious content. These technical indicators underscore its involvement in phishing campaigns targeting cryptocurrency enthusiasts. The site's page title, "Pokoplay: Most Popular Online Crypto Casino Based on Blockchain," was designed to lend credibility and attract victims. Currently, pokoplay.com is offline, reducing immediate threats to users. PhishDestroy recommends maintaining vigilance against similar scam domains and advises organizations to block this domain at the network level. Users should avoid engaging with suspicious crypto casino sites and report any phishing attempts to relevant authorities to help mitigate further risks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1770575484-pokoplay.com 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/pokoplay.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pokoplay.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
