Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies aaveapp.pro as an active crypto drainer impersonating the legitimate DeFi platform Aave. This fraudulent domain (aaveapp.pro) is currently operational and designed to deceive users into connecting their wallets under the guise of interacting with Aave’s services, a common tactic among crypto drainers to siphon funds. This domain was flagged by 2 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating a low but present detection rate among industry tools. Registered through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu, aaveapp.pro resolves to IP address 43.174.241.1 and was created on April 09, 2026. The site operates without a valid SSL certificate from a trusted authority (issued by TrustAsia Technologies, Inc.), further reducing trustworthiness. Its recent creation and minimal blocklist presence suggest it may be a newly deployed threat. Given its active status and specific intent to impersonate Aave, users should avoid interacting with aaveapp.pro entirely. To verify the authenticity of Aave-related domains, always cross-check URLs against the official Aave website (aave.com) or use PhishDestroy’s verification tools. If you encounter this domain, report it immediately to PhishDestroy for further analysis and potential blacklisting. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260521-A858B4 Favicon MD5: 101a395ae5563f6afaa49a49dca79cf8 TLS cert SHA-256: 81318bb59db976e8cde87fe9e0601c85bc34cfea8d32523268d2a7c77871228d ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/aaveapp.pro/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=aaveapp.pro Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
