PhishDestroy has added cloud-htx.com.cn to its internal blocklist as a suspicious domain. The recorded page title is “火币 - htx - 火币交易所 - 火币htx下载”. The domain was first seen by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-20.
How the scam works
The listing does not specify a particular fraud technique, so the exact malicious mechanism is unknown. Domains that imitate cryptocurrency exchanges can be used for phishing, credential harvesting, or fraudulent services, but no such behavior was observed on the recorded page.
Evidence
VirusTotal reported 3 detections from 92 scanning engines on 2026-10-20, with Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Kaspersky and VIPRE flagging the site. Google Safe Browsing checked the domain on 2026-10-20 and did not flag it. Two external blocklists, MetaMask and SEAL, listed the domain as of 2026-10-20. OTX recorded four pulses mentioning the domain on the same date. PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist also marks the domain as suspicious.
Infrastructure
The recorded IP address for cloud-htx.com.cn is 104.21.42.254. No additional registration or hosting details are available in the current evidence.
What to do
If you only visited the site, no immediate action is required, but avoid entering credentials or personal information. If you submitted login details, change the associated passwords and monitor the accounts for unauthorized activity. Security teams should add cloud-htx.com.cn to blocklists, review access logs for any connections, and enforce policies that prevent communication with this exact address.
Hostnames retained in the domain record or Certificate Transparency cache. A hostname alone does not establish current availability or malicious activity.

我应该为报告收集哪些信息？
联邦调查局（FBI）指南
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
当地警方 — 即使无法立即采取行动，也能留下正式记录
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
虚假网站 — 与正规网站完全一致的克隆网站，仅域名略有改动
猪的屠宰 — 通过Telegram/WhatsApp/交友软件花数周时间建立信任，随后钱被骗走
退款诈骗 — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
