Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain royalcapital-union.online is currently active and engaged in crypto credential theft, specifically targeting users of financial and cryptocurrency platforms. Analysis of the page title, Royal Capital Union, suggests an attempt to impersonate legitimate investment or trading services, potentially deceiving victims into disclosing wallet credentials or other sensitive authentication details. The campaign remains operational as of the latest verification, with no indications of takedown or mitigation. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on September 22, 2025, through Global Domain Group LLC, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk registrations. It resolves to the IP address 163.61.188.2, which has been observed in previous fraudulent activities. Detection metrics indicate limited but concerning visibility, with 2 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagging the domain as malicious. The site employs a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, providing a superficial layer of legitimacy, while detected technologies include YouTube, Bootstrap, LiteSpeed, OWL Carousel, jQuery, and Popper, alongside HTTP/3 for enhanced performance and evasion. The risk level is assessed as high due to the domain's active status, targeted impersonation of financial services, and use of modern web technologies to enhance credibility. Organizations and users are advised to block the domain and IP at network perimeters, update endpoint detection rules to include this indicator, and monitor for related infrastructure. Financial institutions should alert customers to the impersonation attempt and reinforce multi-factor authentication for all wallet and trading account access. Security teams are encouraged to correlate this domain with other recent registrations under the same registrar to identify potential campaign expansion. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260626-9327F9 Favicon MD5: b8699704b18e799315817d473d327e1a TLS cert SHA-256: a1f46a5512bdc02abf1840ec46bfa2733db26673f0d779e2d5dbefff40cc32ff ## 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 (volunteer 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/royalcapital-union.online/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=royalcapital-union.online 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
