Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] winecasino.io Fake Casino Site Alert The domain winecasino.io was registered on September 22, 2025 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is currently resolved to the IP address 188.114.96.3. Its authoritative nameservers are fay.ns.cloudflare.com and vin.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating that the domain is hosted on Cloudflare’s infrastructure. As of the report date, July 24, 2026, the domain remains active and is listed on one public security blocklist. VirusTotal analysis shows that six of ninety‑one scanning engines have flagged the domain, providing modest but notable detection confidence. The domain is also explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy service, reinforcing its classification as a malicious resource. No public page title, SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, or Safe Browsing verdicts are available in the current intelligence set, leaving the exact content and delivery mechanisms of the site unverified. Consequently, the precise brand or service being spoofed cannot be confirmed; the domain name suggests a casino‑related lure, but no concrete evidence of a targeted brand is present. This uncertainty should be noted when correlating the domain with potential credential‑stealing campaigns. Defenders should prioritize immediate containment of traffic to winecasino.io by adding the domain and its resolving IP address (188.114.96.3) to outbound filtering rules and DNS sinkhole lists. Monitoring for DNS queries to the Cloudflare nameservers fay.ns.cloudflare.com and vin.ns.cloudflare.com can help detect internal attempts to reach the site. Given the presence on a blocklist and the six VirusTotal detections, security appliances that support threat‑intel feed ingestion should be updated to include this indicator. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as further analysis—such as retrieval of the HTTP response, TLS certificate, or page content—may reveal additional tactics, techniques, and procedures used by the operators. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 50679c0c5e3ed56d05c1d0ed312419a7 TLS cert SHA-256: f7788ece02db1dd87e46332c7853b6066d9b5304548c3cf16b6858d4070ec575 ## 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/winecasino.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=winecasino.io 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.
