Analysis of polymarket.academy indicates a confirmed wallet/seed phishing operation that is currently offline. The domain was registered through NameCheap, Inc. on November 06, 2025 and resolves to the IP address 172.67.221.186, which belongs to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States. The authoritative nameservers are ns1.zomro.net, ns2.zomro.ru, ns3.zomro.com, and ns4.zomro.su.
No TLS certificate is presented for the host, suggesting that the site either did not serve HTTPS or that the certificate was removed prior to takedown. The page title observed during prior scans reads "Polymarket Review 2026: Fees, KYC, Access & How It Works," matching the reported scam type of wallet/seed phishing and reinforcing the brand‑impersonation angle. Threat intelligence shows the domain appears on a single security blocklist, PhishDestroy, and three of ninety‑five VirusTotal scanners flagged it as malicious.
Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 0 out of 100, reflecting a high confidence of malicious intent. Given the lack of a valid SSL certificate, the offline status, and the multiple indicators of compromise, defenders should block the domain at network perimeters, update URL filtering policies, and continue monitoring the associated IP range for any reactivation or related infrastructure. Further investigation should focus on any residual sub‑domains or additional assets that share the same nameserver set, as they may be leveraged for future phishing campaigns.

Accreditation and RAA context
Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
This timeline displays historical security and status checkpoints observed by the PhishDestroy automated monitoring network. It records domain lifecycle updates, scanner changes, and threat telemetry over time.
11 recorded events. These records describe collected evidence, outgoing notifications and publication; they do not confirm a complete investigation or a takedown.

A stored Cloudflare Radar report is available. The report link alone is not a malicious verdict and does not prove that every network field was captured.
