register-dogwifhat[.]com

This domain, register-dogwifhat.com, was registered on May 01, 2026 by NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is currently classified as a high‑risk generic phishing site. The threat is active as of the report date, July 12, 2026. The domain resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which is owned by Cloudflare, Inc. and geolocated to Canada. The hosting uses a Let’s Encrypt certificate (issuer “E7”), and the authoritative nameservers are penny.ns.cloudflare.com and scott.ns.cloudflare.com. HTTP requests receive a 403 response, indicating intentional denial of service for non‑malicious traffic. The domain appears on three public blocklists and has been specifically blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100, reflecting a completely untrusted assessment. VirusTotal reports that three of ninety‑five scanned security vendors flag the domain as malicious. AlienVault OTX includes the domain in one threat‑intel pulse. The combination of a zero trust score, multiple blocklist listings, and limited vendor detections suggests a coordinated phishing effort, although the low number of detections on VirusTotal leaves some uncertainty about the full scope of malicious payloads. Defenders should block the domain at perimeter firewalls and DNS resolvers, enforce TLS inspection to capture the 403 responses, and monitor for any outbound connections to 188.114.96.3. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, given the active status and the possibility of additional malicious infrastructure being added.
