pippins[.]top

Analysis conducted on 24 July 2026 identifies the domain pippins.top as an active phishing infrastructure that has been taken offline. The domain was registered on 17 December 2025 through PublicDomainRegistry.com (operated by PDR Ltd.) and is hosted on Cloudflare’s network (AS13335). DNS resolution points to IP 172.67.204.54, located in the United States. The authoritative nameservers are leo.ns.cloudflare.com and phoenix.ns.cloudflare.com, and no TLS certificate is presented, indicating that HTTPS is not configured.

The page title returned by the server is “Just a moment…”, which is a common placeholder used by Cloudflare when a site is under challenge or temporarily unavailable. Reputation services show a uniformly low trust rating: Gridinsoft assigns a score of 0 out of 100, and the domain appears on a single public blocklist maintained by PhishDestroy. VirusTotal records two detections out of ninety‑three scanned engines, confirming that at least two security vendors have identified malicious behavior associated with the domain. No additional intelligence such as OTX tags, Safe Browsing alerts, or detailed payload analysis is currently available.

Given the limited but consistent evidence—low trust score, presence on a phishing blocklist, partial VirusTotal detections, and the use of Cloudflare‑protected infrastructure—the domain should be treated as a confirmed phishing threat. Defenders are advised to add pippins.top to local blocklists, monitor DNS queries for the associated IP range, and enforce TLS inspection policies to detect any future attempts to serve malicious content from this host. Continuous re‑evaluation is recommended in case the site is re‑activated or additional indicators emerge.
