gift-cash[.]icu

gift-cash.icu was observed in multiple threat‑intel feeds as a gaming‑related phishing site. The domain was registered on 31 October 2025 through Web Commerce Communications Limited and is hosted on Cloudflare’s network (ASN 13335). DNS resolution points to 188.114.97.3, an address owned by Cloudflare, Inc. The site currently returns an HTTP 404 response with the title “404 Not Found”, indicating that the malicious landing page has been removed or taken offline. No TLS certificate is presented, so connections are unencrypted. Gridinsoft’s proprietary trust‑score assigns the domain a value of 0 / 100, marking it as highly untrustworthy.

VirusTotal reports that 15 of 95 scanned security vendors flagged the domain as malicious, reinforcing the suspicion. The domain appears on a single known security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy feed. AlienVault OTX lists the domain in 16 separate threat‑intel pulses, all referencing a gaming‑scam campaign. The authoritative name servers are hunts.ns.cloudflare.com and phoenix.ns.cloudflare.com, consistent with the Cloudflare hosting.

The site’s risk rating is elevated, but its current offline status limits immediate exposure. Open questions remain about the exact phishing payload, the victim acquisition vector, and whether additional infrastructure (e.g., command‑and‑control servers) is associated with the same IP. Defenders should continue to block the domain at DNS and proxy layers, monitor for re‑hosting attempts on the same IP or similar Cloudflare‑hosted subdomains, and correlate any alerts that reference the 16 OTX pulses. Regular re‑scans of the domain after any change in status are advised, as the lack of TLS and the 404 page suggest the operators may reactivate the site under a different URL.
