roy[.]casino

Analysis of the domain roy.casino, registered on October 09, 2025 through NameCheap, Inc., indicates that it was used to host a fraudulent cryptocurrency casino page titled “Roy: Most Popular Online Crypto Casino Based on Blockchain”. The site resolved to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which belongs to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States. Cloudflare’s authoritative name servers clyde.ns.cloudflare.com and ursula.ns.cloudflare.com were configured for the domain. No TLS certificate was observed, and the site was taken offline at the time of reporting (July 23, 2026).

The page was built with the publicly available “Gambler Scam” phishing kit, a toolkit commonly employed to mimic gambling or casino services in order to lure victims into depositing cryptocurrency. Threat‑intelligence aggregators have assigned a Gridinsoft trust score of 1 out of 100, reflecting extreme suspicion. VirusTotal scans recorded 13 detections out of 93 security vendors, confirming that multiple antivirus engines flag the domain as malicious. The domain appears on one external security blocklist and has been listed by PhishDestroy, further evidencing its use in phishing campaigns.

The primary uncertainty concerns the current activity of the underlying infrastructure; because the site is offline, it is unclear whether the operators have relocated to a different host or continue to use the same IP range. Defensive recommendations include adding 188.114.96.3 to network block lists, enforcing DNS filtering for the domain and its Cloudflare name servers, and monitoring for any re‑registration attempts. Organizations should also educate users about crypto‑casino scams and advise them to verify domain ownership before any financial transaction. Continuous monitoring of VirusTotal, threat‑intel feeds, and new registrations similar to roy.casino is advised to detect potential resurgence.
