On 24 July 2026, the domain polymarket.states.market was observed hosting a generic phishing page. The site returned an HTTP 404 response and the page title returned by the server was exactly “polymarket.states.market”. The domain was registered on 21 February 2026 and is hosted behind Cloudflare’s edge network (ASN 13335, United States). DNS resolution points to 172.67.170.54 and the authoritative nameservers are vern.ns.cloudflare.com and nola.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating that the attacker leveraged Cloudflare’s DNS and CDN services.
TLS termination is provided by Google Trust Services under the WE1 certificate, which is a legitimate certificate authority and does not by itself imply malicious intent. The service was detected by two of ninety‑three VirusTotal scanners, and the domain appears on a single external blocklist, where it has been flagged by PhishDestroy and subsequently taken offline. The presence of HTTP/3 and other Cloudflare‑specific technologies is consistent with the use of the provider’s performance features.
No additional artefacts such as a login form, brand logos, or malicious payloads were captured, and the exact phishing kit or targeted brand cannot be confirmed from the available data. Defenders should continue to monitor the domain’s DNS records for any re‑activation, enforce blocklist entries in perimeter security devices, and consider adding the IP address 172.67.170.54 to network‑level deny lists if it is observed serving malicious content in the future. Because the site currently returns 404 and is listed as offline, immediate remediation is limited to awareness and blocking, while threat‑intel teams should seek correlated activity in other Cloudflare‑hosted domains that share the same nameservers or certificate fingerprint.

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.
