store[.]workshopskindeveloper[.]com

store.workshopskindeveloper.com was observed on 12 July 2026 as an active high‑risk brand‑impersonation site. The domain resolves to 188.114.96.3 and returns HTTP 520, indicating a server‑side error that may be used to obscure malicious activity. The certificate is issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 profile, and the connection is protected by HSTS, suggesting an effort to appear legitimate.

The domain was registered on 8 November 2025 through Web Commerce Communications Limited and is delegated to the Cloudflare nameservers anirban.ns.cloudflare.com and gemma.ns.cloudflare.com. The hosting IP belongs to AS13335, a Cloudflare network located in the United States. Technology fingerprints show Nginx as the web server. The registrar and DNS configuration are consistent with a fast‑flux style deployment, but no additional IP addresses have been observed.

The page title returned by the site is “Steam Workshop::MAC‑10 | Poison Revenge [TOXIC]”, indicating a gaming‑focused scam that impersonates the Counter‑Strike brand. The domain appears on one public security blocklist and is flagged by PhishDestroy. VirusTotal scans show 10 out of 95 security vendors label the domain as malicious, and Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100. These indicators collectively confirm the site’s alignment with known Counter‑Strike brand‑impersonation campaigns.

Defenders should immediately block 188.114.96.3 and the domain store.workshopskindeveloper.com at perimeter filters. Continuous DNS monitoring is advised to detect any additional A‑record changes. Given the low trust score and multiple vendor detections, inclusion of the domain in internal blacklists and threat‑intel feeds is recommended. Analysts should also watch for similar Cloudflare‑hosted domains that reference Steam Workshop or MAC‑10 terminology, as they may share the same operational infrastructure.
