Assessment

tether-gold.online returned an HTTP 200 status on 2026-10-01, a recorded response from that date. The same domain was first observed on 2026-08-26, according to the available record.

Recorded Evidence

On 2026-10-01, tether-gold.online returned HTTP status 200. As of 2026-10-01, the domain appeared on two external blocklists, ScamSniffer and CryptoFirewall. VirusTotal reported 6 detections across 90 scanners on 2026-09-04. OTX recorded 4 pulses on 2026-09-04. An internal listing by PhishDestroy was also recorded. The SSL certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt / YR2, scanned on 2026-09-21.

Interpretation

The HTTP 200 response describes only the recorded response on that date, not all content served by tether-gold.online. The blocklist entries from ScamSniffer and CryptoFirewall, the VirusTotal detections, and the OTX pulses are separate source observations with their own dates. Because the HTTP and blocklist records share 2026-10-01, they can be compared as same-date observations, while the VirusTotal and OTX entries from 2026-09-04 form an earlier set. These records show monitoring attention without establishing a verdict.

Recommended Actions

For any review of tether-gold.online, preserve the HTTP response record, the ScamSniffer and CryptoFirewall blocklist entries, the VirusTotal result, and the OTX pulses as separate source records. Compare each preserved record against future observations of the same source to identify changes. Reference the exact domain tether-gold.online when documenting these comparisons.

Accreditation and RAA context

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations

For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.

RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

Accountability draft Nothing is sent automatically.
