================================================================

Fetched:   2026-06-23 21:10:13 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/2base.top/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Impersonation
Targeted brand: Base

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      4/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar
URLQuery:        2 detections
Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      45.77.75.133
Registrar:       NameSilo,LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:36:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has identified 2base.top as a confirmed phishing site that impersonates the Base cryptocurrency platform. This domain was designed to trick visitors into believing they were participating in a legitimate USDC token distribution, likely to steal their cryptocurrency wallet credentials or private keys. The site's title, "USDC TOKEN DISTRIBUTION – Telegram," suggests the scammers were using social engineering tactics via Telegram to lure victims. The domain is now offline, but similar threats may still be active.

PhishDestroy's analysis reveals that 2base.top was created on June 15, 2026, through the registrar NameSilo, LLC, and was flagged by 4 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal. It resolved to IP address 45.77.75.133 and used a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate (E8), which is common among phishing sites to appear legitimate. The domain appeared on three security blocklists before being taken offline. These technical indicators confirm that this was a well-prepared scam targeting the Base brand.

If you visited 2base.top and entered any personal information, such as your crypto wallet seed phrase or login credentials, take immediate action. Transfer any remaining funds from compromised wallets to a new, secure wallet. Change passwords for any other accounts that share the same credentials. Monitor your accounts for unauthorized activity and consider enabling two-factor authentication. Report the incident to your local cybercrime authority. Stay vigilant against similar phishing attempts by verifying URLs before interacting with them.

## EVIDENCE HASHES

PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260617-BAF254
Favicon MD5:       16a75c7824b5223b8e22864354e9e33f
TLS cert SHA-256:      7c8e184adcfb59acac7eadd2112a6351da5e9b579408ac67bc4edb65fd2529b4

## SCORING METHODOLOGY
----------------------------------------------------------------
Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates:
  - VirusTotal positive ratio
  - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus,
    CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB)
  - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor)
  - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.)
  - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing
  - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts
  - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording)
  - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures)
  - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...)
  - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal)
  - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record)
  - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team)

A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does
NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their
first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite
score and the individual indicators above, not just VT.
