3xtrade.xyz Generic Phishing Campaign - High Risk

Analysis as of July 27, 2026 indicates that the domain 3xtrade.xyz was registered on March 14, 2026 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. The domain resolves to IP address 104.21.89.26 and is served by Cloudflare nameservers magdalena.ns.cloudflare.com and pete.ns.cloudflare.com, which obscures the underlying hosting infrastructure and is a common tactic for phishing operators. Reputation checks show the domain appears on one external security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy service, confirming that at least one trusted feed has identified malicious use. VirusTotal scans report that three of ninety‑one security vendors flagged the domain, reinforcing the suspicion of malicious activity.

The threat classification provided is generic phishing, and the risk level is marked as high with the domain remaining active at the time of assessment. Defenders should add 3xtrade.xyz to local deny lists, enforce DNS filtering, and monitor outbound connections to the associated Cloudflare IP range.

Because the domain leverages Cloudflare’s CDN, deeper server‑side investigation may be limited; however, any observed traffic to this address should be treated as potentially hostile. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as additional detection vendors may update their verdicts and further blocklist entries could emerge.

## EVIDENCE HASHES

PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260727-7FBCB1
Favicon MD5:       0296af1ff80343eb0be8387d7b1c0f1d
TLS cert SHA-256:      8e26e384dd289cf996f45b995389725ae2dd9ee0a292c4ffcfa914468f4ac635

## 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 (operator 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.
