This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-01-27 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-01 03:52:15 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-01 02:04:26 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-01 20:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-01 12:02:52 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1b5f-31dc-737f-b212-d3557bb122d9/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/2835441b-7296-4e12-be86-3128cafe80b2 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/royaltradertrust.online crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.royaltradertrust.online Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=royaltradertrust.online AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/royaltradertrust.online URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/royaltradertrust.online/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-01 03:56:09 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, royaltradertrust.online, operates as a fraudulent contract-for-difference (CFD) trading platform designed to deceive users into depositing funds under the pretense of trading stocks, gold, oil, and indices. The site mimics legitimate brokerage interfaces, presenting a fabricated trading environment with simulated market data and account dashboards. Analysis of the page structure reveals embedded forms soliciting personal and financial details, including credit card numbers and cryptocurrency wallet addresses, which are likely harvested for unauthorized transactions or identity theft. The domain specifically targets retail investors by exploiting the appeal of high-return commodities trading, a common tactic in financial phishing schemes. Infrastructure analysis provides concrete indicators of malicious intent. The domain was registered on January 27, 2026, through Global Domain Group LLC, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk registrations. It currently resolves to the IP address 163.61.188.7, which has been observed in prior phishing campaigns. VirusTotal detection metrics show that 4 out of 95 security vendors have flagged royaltradertrust.online as malicious, a low but notable detection rate that suggests the campaign is either new or employs evasion techniques. The SSL certificate, issued by Let's Encrypt, provides basic encryption but does not validate the legitimacy of the site, as free certificates are commonly abused in phishing operations. No blocklist entries were identified at the time of analysis, though the domain remains active and accessible. Users who have visited royaltradertrust.online or interacted with its content should take immediate remedial action. Any credentials, payment details, or personal information entered on the site should be considered compromised. Affected individuals should revoke access to linked financial accounts, monitor for unauthorized transactions, and report the incident to relevant fraud authorities. Browser-based password managers and session cookies should be cleared to prevent persistent access by malicious actors. Network-level blocking of the domain and its resolving IP (163.61.188.7) is recommended for organizations to prevent further exposure. Given the high-risk nature of this campaign, users are advised to verify the authenticity of any trading platform through official regulatory databases before engaging.

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/royaltradertrust.online/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=royaltradertrust.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.
