No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-18 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-18 23:30:08 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 06:48:46 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-04 00:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-26 12:29:08 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 19:05:41 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain spax88k.com is under investigation as a generic phishing threat and is currently active. The site purports to offer a token presale with a title 'SPAX88K Token (SPAX) | Official Presale — Early Access Now Live'. This suggests an attempt to lure users into a potential cryptocurrency scam, although no specific brand name is explicitly impersonated. Registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, spax88k.com was created on May 18, 2026, and is hosted in the United States by CYPRESS COMMUNICATIONS, LLC, resolving to IP address 216.198.79.65. Despite its suspicious nature, the site has not yet been flagged by any of the 95 vendors on VirusTotal, although it does appear on one security blocklist. The domain is currently blocked by PhishDestroy. It uses Let's Encrypt for its SSL certification, which could lend a false sense of security to potential victims. Given the current status of spax88k.com, it is crucial for users to exercise caution. Recommendations include avoiding interacting with the site and monitoring its status on security platforms. Network administrators should consider preemptively blocking the domain at the gateway level to prevent accidental access. Continued surveillance and submission of the domain to additional blocklists are advised as part of proactive security measures. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: d43b9c2e786cf83c5c8e48dc6a22c6fc TLS cert SHA-256: 7f0b8f26bc9dd06a82efe8bd43ebb4e6593d57d4b02f67c778ddccc1d043a1da ## 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 (operator 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/spax88k.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=spax88k.com 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
