Assessment

tether-gold.sbs returned HTTP status 200 on 2026-10-01, according to the recorded HTTP check. The domain was first observed on 2026-09-10, and its registration date is listed as 2026-09-03 with Spaceship, Inc. as the registrar.

Recorded Evidence

The PhishDestroy catalogue recorded an internal listing for tether-gold.sbs, and the OTX check on 2026-09-20 counted 3 pulses. VirusTotal reported 12 detections across 89 scanners on 2026-09-22. The SSL certificate, issued by Let's Encrypt / YR2, was scanned on 2026-09-18, the same date as a PageSpeed performance score of 44.

Interpretation

The OTX and VirusTotal observations come from different dates, so their counts reflect separate snapshots rather than one combined measurement. The PhishDestroy listing and the HTTP response were also recorded on separate dates, which limits direct comparison between them. The PageSpeed and SSL scans share a date, while the registration and first-observation dates differ by one week.

Recommended Actions

Retain the recorded observations for tether-gold.sbs, including the exact dates and source names, so later checks can be compared against them. When reviewing tether-gold.sbs again, compare each new result with the corresponding earlier snapshot rather than mixing sources. Avoid submitting payment details or other sensitive information while the review is in progress.

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.
