royal-captal-ex.cc is an impersonation phishing site that presents itself as Royal Capital. The misspelled domain, with "captal" in place of "capital" and an "-ex" suffix suggesting an exchange, is built to pass a quick glance from people looking for a crypto trading or investment platform. PhishDestroy first detected it on 2026-10-14, two days after registration. As of 2026-10-19 the site is online and its phishing content is live.
How the scam works
The page carries the title "Royal Capital" and copies the branding of a financial or exchange service to win the visitor's trust. Sites like this usually ask for account credentials, personal details or a deposit to open or fund a trading account. Anything typed into the page goes straight to the operators. Stolen logins can be reused against real accounts, and money sent as a deposit is not recoverable. Fake trading dashboards often display growing balances to draw in larger payments, then block withdrawals behind invented fees.
Evidence
VirusTotal shows 7 of 92 engines flagging the domain as of 2026-10-18: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, SOCRadar and VIPRE. That is a modest share of engines, typical for a domain only days old. The domain is also listed on the PhishDestroy, MetaMask and SEAL blocklists, and it appears in 3 AlienVault OTX threat pulses.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-10-12 through Dominet (HK) Limited. It resolves to 188.114.96.3 on Cloudflare, Inc.'s network, geolocated to Canada. That address belongs to Cloudflare's proxy service, which hides the origin server behind it. The TLS certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt (YE2), so the padlock in the browser only means the connection is encrypted. It says nothing about whether the site is legitimate.
What to do
Close the site and do not enter anything into it. If you entered a password, change it on the genuine service and on any other account that uses the same password, then turn on two-factor authentication. If you sent a deposit, contact your bank or the exchange you paid from right away and report the transfer as fraud. Ignore follow-up offers to recover funds, which are often a second scam. Security teams should block the domain at DNS, proxy and email gateways, add it to watchlists for lookalike Royal Capital domains, and report it to Cloudflare and the registrar.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.

Hostnames retained in the domain record or Certificate Transparency cache. A hostname alone does not establish current availability or malicious activity.
