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: 2025-12-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-18 19:34:00 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-18 17:42:18 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-27 08:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-19 00:04:48 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019edbca-d1a0-72c9-9ac5-070090958331/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/ee8da91f-e485-4a46-8fb4-d1af20230878 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/wilcat.finance crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.wilcat.finance Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=wilcat.finance AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/wilcat.finance URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/wilcat.finance/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 14:59:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain wilcat.finance is assessed as high risk and is specifically identified as a credential theft phishing site. This type of threat is designed to capture user credentials, often leading to unauthorized access to sensitive accounts and potential financial fraud. Analysis indicates that the domain has been flagged by 5 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a consensus among some security professionals about its malicious nature. The domain is registered through Dynadot Inc and was created on December 16, 2025. It resolves to the IP address 172.67.208.109, which is located in the United States (US) and is associated with AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt with a validity period of YR1. The domain is currently active and is listed on one security blocklist. Additionally, it is blocked by the PhishDestroy service, further highlighting its potential threat. To mitigate the risks associated with credential theft phishing, organizations and individuals should avoid entering any sensitive information on the wilcat.finance domain. Network administrators should consider blocking access to this domain at the network level to prevent user exposure. Users should be educated to recognize phishing tactics, such as suspicious URLs, unprofessional page designs, and unexpected requests for credentials. Regularly updating and enforcing strong password policies, enabling two-factor authentication, and monitoring for unusual login activity can also help in protecting against credential theft. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260618-29662A TLS cert SHA-256: ab5e17829b1ccf2aae41055e03f900e151e6fd0ad976b6459d968070d5d6a5d0 ## 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 (volunteer 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/wilcat.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=wilcat.finance 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
