# PhishDestroy threat dossier — stake1176.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-08 09:32:10 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/stake1176.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 49/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.75.52 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: bowen.ns.cloudflare.com, evangeline.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-07-02 Expires: 2027-07-02 Page title: Prediction markets - PolyStake HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-10-01 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: b254faa4cb99213c6b731b59e826816af30e725fec8c22fceb50a4833f039169 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. 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: 2026-07-02 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-06 16:16:04 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-08 10:50:30 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f37c7-cc99-70ac-9270-577051b3b4f0/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/stake1176.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.stake1176.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=stake1176.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/stake1176.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/stake1176.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-06 17:05:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain operates as a crypto_drainer, designed to siphon cryptocurrency from victims by impersonating PolyStake, a prediction markets platform. Users visiting the site may unknowingly connect wallets to malicious smart contracts, leading to unauthorized fund transfers without consent. The threat specifically targets users expecting legitimate staking or prediction market services, exploiting trust in the PolyStake brand to execute financial theft. Analysis indicates the domain stake1176.com was registered on July 02, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. Only 2 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal currently flag this domain, suggesting low detection rates despite its active malicious use. The site remains operational, resolving to IP address 172.67.214.136 and using an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services, which may lend a false sense of legitimacy to unsuspecting visitors. If you visited stake1176.com and connected a wallet, immediately disconnect it from all dApps and revoke any suspicious smart contract approvals using a blockchain explorer. Scan connected devices for malware, as crypto_drainers may deploy additional payloads. Monitor wallet activity for unauthorized transactions and consider transferring remaining funds to a new, secure wallet. Report the domain to relevant security platforms to aid in broader threat mitigation efforts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: a39f5f7edcba1c1e973893b0a638b60f TLS cert SHA-256: b254faa4cb99213c6b731b59e826816af30e725fec8c22fceb50a4833f039169 ## 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/stake1176.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=stake1176.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.
