No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-14 12:34:49 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-13 04:19:59 UTC (STALE — 17 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-03-15 12:09:23 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 17 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 17 days stale) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c56b1-6902-772a-853f-0ee23f02aea4/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/94777ea4-3af9-47ba-8903-af63ea784fff Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/shibabounty.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.shibabounty.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=shibabounty.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/shibabounty.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/shibabounty.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 06:13:09 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies shibabounty.net as a generic phishing domain targeting users interested in the Shiba Inu (SHIB) cryptocurrency ecosystem. It masquerades as an official platform with the page title "Shib.io | Home of the Shiba Inu (SHIB) Ecosystem," attempting to deceive visitors into trusting the site. The domain has been classified as low risk due to limited distribution and low detection rates. Technical analysis reveals that shibabounty.net was registered on February 21, 2026, through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited. It resolves to the IP address 104.21.52.97 and exhibits poor performance with a PageSpeed score of 27/100, a common trait in hastily deployed phishing websites. The domain has a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100 and appears on one security blocklist. VirusTotal flags are minimal, with only 2 out of 95 security vendors detecting malicious activity. Currently, shibabounty.net is offline, indicating a possible takedown or abandonment following its identification as a phishing threat. Users are advised to avoid interactions with this domain and confirm the authenticity of any Shiba Inu-related websites directly through official sources. PhishDestroy recommends maintaining vigilance against phishing campaigns exploiting popular cryptocurrency brands. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 2/93 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260214-A69EB9 Favicon MD5: 551e2c6389fe28c8f8e29bc18c9254c3 TLS cert SHA-256: 034b715edbe4a2899a2d45763db6b494755af93a486e765dd67cac4b67cd8e30 ## 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/shibabounty.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=shibabounty.net 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.
