The domain raffle.casino was first seen by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-18, three days after it was registered on 2026-10-15. Its current status is unknown, as the site content has not been fully analyzed. It masquerades as a gaming or raffle platform to lure victims into depositing funds.
How the scam works
This is a classic online casino scam. Victims are enticed to deposit cryptocurrency or fiat into a rigged gaming platform that never pays out winnings. The site may mimic legitimate gaming brands or use generic “raffle” themes to appear harmless. After funds are deposited, withdrawals are blocked and personal information may be harvested.

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.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

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.
Casino / Gambling License Verification
Unverified gambling license
This domain markets casino/gambling services. Scam casinos routinely display fake Curaçao, MGA, or Kahnawake license badges that don’t exist in the real registries. Always verify the license number against the official regulator database before depositing. If the site shows a seal but no clickable registry link — or the linked registry page doesn’t exist — treat it as fraudulent.
Stored relationships are grouped by the exact matching attribute. A shared provider or registrar alone does not prove common ownership.

After a phishing incident
Recommendations & Advice for Victims
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site
What information should I collect for my report?
FBI guidelines
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including raffle.casino)
Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used
Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.
Where should I report the scam?
FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
"Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
