azstec[.]shop

The domain azstec.shop was registered through HOSTINGER operations, UAB on 2025-12-05. It resolves to the Cloudflare edge IP 172.67.218.144, which is announced by AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. and geolocated to the United States. The authoritative nameservers are jaxson.ns.cloudflare.com and nancy.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating the domain is fully hosted behind Cloudflare's CDN. TLS termination is provided by a Google Trust Services certificate issued to WE1, confirming that the connection is encrypted using a trusted root.

An HTTP request to the site returns status code 403, and the page title reported by crawlers is “FASTPANEL”, a generic control-panel identifier rather than a brand name. Automated analysis on VirusTotal recorded 11 detections out of 95 scanning engines, and the domain appears on two external blocklists. It has also been flagged by PhishDestroy and ScamSniffer, and a single AlienVault OTX pulse references it. The observed payload matches the known “Airdrop Scam” phishing kit, which typically harvests credentials under the pretext of cryptocurrency airdrops.

The current operational status is listed as offline, suggesting the site has been taken down or is otherwise inaccessible. Open questions remain regarding the exact content that was served before the 403 response, and whether any victims have been compromised. Defenders should continue to block the domain at perimeter firewalls, DNS sinks, and proxy filters, monitor for any outbound connections to the Cloudflare IP, and correlate internal logs for attempts to access azstec.shop or the FASTPANEL title. Given the presence of multiple detections and its inclusion on reputable blocklists, the domain should be treated as high-confidence malicious and added to threat intel feeds for future reference.
