Analysis indicates that the domain puffer.claims is actively serving a crypto‑drainer operation. The site presents the page title “Puffer Airdrop Portal | Claim Puffer Rewards”, which aligns with the known airdrop scam kit. Registration data shows the domain was created on 21 February 2026 and is registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited. DNS resolution points to the IP address 172.67.173.246, which is owned by AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc., confirming the hosting is provided by Cloudflare. The domain uses Cloudflare’s infrastructure, including HTTP/3 support, and the TLS certificate is issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 authority, indicating a valid HTTPS configuration.

HTTP requests receive a 403 status, suggesting access restrictions are in place, yet the domain remains reachable for malicious actors. Reputation checks reveal a Gridinsoft trust score of 0 / 100 and a VirusTotal detection ratio of 11 out of 93 scanned vendors flagging the domain. The domain appears on five external blocklists and has been blocked by security products such as PhishDestroy, MetaMask, ScamSniffer, SEAL, and Enkrypt. Nameserver entries are dave.ns.cloudflare.com and alexandra.ns.cloudflare.com. The overall risk rating is high and the campaign status is listed as active.

Uncertainty remains regarding the exact content delivered to victims, as the HTTP 403 response limits direct observation. Defenders should proactively block the domain at network perimeters, add the associated IP and nameservers to deny lists, and monitor for traffic to Cloudflare‑hosted assets matching the observed certificate. Endpoint protection should be updated to include the 11 VirusTotal detections and the known airdrop kit signatures. Continuous monitoring of the registrar NiceNIC for new domains with similar creation dates is recommended to anticipate future infrastructure reuse.
