stake6[.]us

The domain stake6.us was registered through Web Commerce Communications Limited and first observed on 30 July 2025. Automated analysis shows the site delivered a page titled “STAKE6 | Play at the best online casino based on Blockchain”, a typical lure for cryptocurrency‑focused gambling scams. The infrastructure uses four generic nameservers (ns1‑ns4.nameserverhub.com) and resolves to the IPv4 address 69.5.189.56, which is advertised as being hosted in Switzerland (country code CH) under ASN 42624 owned by Global‑Data System IT Corporation. No TLS certificate was presented, indicating that the site operated over plain HTTP only.

Reputation services have assigned an extremely low trust score of 1 / 100, and the domain appears on a single security blocklist where it is flagged by PhishDestroy. VirusTotal scans report 2 of 95 AV engines marking the host as malicious, consistent with the classification of a crypto‑drainer scam. The observed malicious kit is identified as “Gambler Scam”, reinforcing the casino‑themed narrative and suggesting that the adversary intended to harvest cryptocurrency deposits from unsuspecting victims. As of the report date (24 July 2026), the domain is taken offline, preventing immediate interaction.

However, the historical indicators—low trust score, blocklist entry, AV detections, and the Gambler Scam kit—provide sufficient evidence for continued monitoring. Defenders should add stake6.us to internal deny lists, block outbound connections to its resolved IP, and watch for any resurgence of the nameserver set or similar page‑title patterns. Additional threat‑intel feeds should be queried for new sightings linked to ASN 42624 or the registrar, and any future DNS resolves to 69.5.189.56 should be treated as high‑confidence malicious activity.
