No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-23 03:33:23 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-04 16:20:36 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ef21a-764a-70fb-b7c9-10b7cb969197/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/portalcelisus.network crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.portalcelisus.network Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=portalcelisus.network AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/portalcelisus.network URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/portalcelisus.network/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 19:23:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain portalcelisus.network is currently active and confirmed as a crypto brand impersonation scam specifically targeting Celsius Network LLC. Analysis indicates this infrastructure is designed to deceive users into believing they are interacting with the legitimate Celsius Network platform, likely for the purpose of credential theft or unauthorized transaction approvals. The page title explicitly mimics the official branding, displaying 'Celsius Network LLC, et al.' to enhance credibility and lower user suspicion. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 15, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. It resolves to the IP address 104.21.54.48, which has been linked to other malicious activities in recent threat intelligence reports. The domain appears on three distinct security blocklists and is flagged by 13 of 95 vendors on VirusTotal, including multiple detections for phishing and fraudulent content. Additional corroborating evidence includes active blocking by at least three independent security entities, further validating its malicious classification. Current status indicates the domain remains operational and poses a high risk to users, particularly those within the cryptocurrency ecosystem. The use of a lookalike domain name combined with official branding elements suggests a targeted campaign aimed at harvesting sensitive credentials or facilitating unauthorized fund transfers. Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with this domain and to verify the authenticity of any Celsius Network-related communications through official channels. Organizations should update security controls to block access to portalcelisus.network and its associated IP address, while monitoring for similar impersonation attempts using the same registrar or hosting infrastructure. Immediate reporting to relevant security teams and domain registrars is recommended to mitigate further exposure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 00b81402dfc7b24468a785885a0884e9 TLS cert SHA-256: 5d2a45994d44c1ec360c621a7152a614386e1865cc645d5fda0b31373e577628 ## 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/portalcelisus.network/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=portalcelisus.network 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.
