emcas[.]icu

On July 22, 2026, analysis of the domain emcas.icu was performed. The domain was registered on August 27, 2025 through Web Commerce Communications Limited and is hosted on nameservers clark.ns.cloudflare.com and cruz.ns.cloudflare.com. DNS resolution points to IP address 57.129.97.29, which belongs to AS16276 (OVH SAS) and is geolocated in Germany. No TLS certificate was observed, indicating the site operated without HTTPS. The page title returned by the server is “EMCAS | Enter the world of sport and stakes!”, a phrase that aligns with the Gambler Scam phishing kit identified in the infrastructure.

The site is classified as a brand impersonation campaign targeting the Ethereum brand. Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 0 out of 100, reflecting an extremely low reputation. A VirusTotal scan recorded three of ninety‑five security vendors flagging the domain, and it appears on one external blocklist. PhishDestroy also listed the domain as blocked. The current operational status is offline.

The available evidence confirms the use of a gambling‑oriented phishing kit, the absence of encryption, and the involvement of a reputable hosting provider (OVH) leveraged via Cloudflare DNS. However, the exact content served, including any credential‑capture forms, has not been captured, leaving the full scope of the impersonation technique uncertain. Defensive actions should include adding the IP 57.129.97.29 and the domain emcas.icu to network‑level blocklists, updating email and web filters to flag references to the page title and the Ethereum brand, and monitoring the registrar Web Commerce Communications Limited for future registrations that reuse similar naming patterns. Continuous observation of the Cloudflare name server entries is advised, as they may be reused for re‑hosted copies of the campaign.
