aml-auditor[.]click

Analysis of the domain aml-auditor.click indicates it was actively impersonating LinkedIn as part of a wallet and seed-phishing operation targeting cryptocurrency users. The domain, registered on February 21, 2026, through Dynadot LLC, resolved to the IP address 172.86.94.61, hosted on AS30823 (aurologic GmbH) in Germany. At the time of assessment, the site returned an HTTP 200 status but lacked an SSL certificate, a common red flag for fraudulent infrastructure. The page title, 'AMLBot - Comprehensive Crypto Compliance Solution | Free AML Crypto Check,' suggests an attempt to deceive users into believing the site offers legitimate anti-money laundering tools, likely as a pretext for harvesting wallet credentials or seed phrases.

Security vendors flagged the domain as malicious, with 17 of 93 engines on VirusTotal detecting it at the time of scanning. Gridinsoft assigned it a trust score of 0/100, and it appeared on three security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. AlienVault OTX recorded its presence in a single threat intelligence pulse, further corroborating its association with phishing activity. The domain's nameservers (ns1.dyna-ns.net and ns2.dyna-ns.net) are consistent with those used by other fraudulent sites, though this alone is not conclusive evidence of malicious intent.

As of July 23, 2026, the domain is offline, reducing immediate risk to users. However, defenders should treat any prior interactions with the site as potential compromise events, particularly for cryptocurrency wallets or credentials. Organizations should block the domain and its associated IP at the network level and monitor for related infrastructure, such as domains registered through the same registrar or resolving to the same hosting provider.
