No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-07-10 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-10 04:34:34 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-10 12:40:17 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f49df-ab7a-74dc-bf8b-b211320363b7/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/spx88k.icu crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.spx88k.icu Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=spx88k.icu AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/spx88k.icu URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/spx88k.icu/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-10 04:44:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, spx88k.icu, is flagged as a high-risk generic phishing threat currently active and targeting users under the guise of Cloudflare security verification processes. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to impersonate legitimate security validation workflows, likely to harvest credentials or distribute malicious payloads. The domain remains operational and unblocked by most security mechanisms, posing a significant risk to unsuspecting visitors. Infrastructure analysis reveals spx88k.icu resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3 and was registered on July 10, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. As of the latest assessment, only 2 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal have flagged this domain, suggesting low detection coverage. The domain employs a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, which may lend false legitimacy to the phishing attempt. Additional technical indicators include the use of particles.js for visual deception, reCAPTCHA to mimic authenticity, jsDelivr for content delivery, and Cloudflare Browser Insights for performance tracking, all of which are atypical for legitimate security verification pages. Current status confirms spx88k.icu remains active and accessible, with no widespread blocklisting or takedown efforts observed. The combination of low detection rates, recent registration, and sophisticated technical obfuscation elevates the risk profile. Organizations and end-users are advised to immediately block the domain and its associated IP at the network level. Security teams should monitor for connections to 188.114.97.3 and inspect logs for references to spx88k.icu or its subdomains. Users who may have interacted with the domain should reset credentials for any accounts accessed during the suspected compromise window and enable multi-factor authentication where available. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: a314da9f659a273c951c5a8b0ab4a46a TLS cert SHA-256: 9fd98e2d86a665c83d13618702c50783af112603a6d3d2e9a9fb05b2747c33eb ## 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/spx88k.icu/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=spx88k.icu 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.
