# PhishDestroy threat dossier — airdropalert.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-30 15:59:53 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/airdropalert.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 97/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Airdrop Scam Targeted brand: Airdrop Scam Phishing kit: Airdrop Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/91 security vendors flagged this domain AlienVault OTX: 8 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 192.0.78.142 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS2635 AUTOMATTIC - Automattic, Inc, US Hosting org: AS2635 Automattic, Inc Registrar: NAMECHEAP INC Nameservers: ns1.wordpress.com, ns2.wordpress.com, ns3.wordpress.com Registered: 2017-06-10 Expires: 2033-06-10 Page title: Airdrop Alert | The Best Crypto Airdrops since 2017 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WR1 Expires: 2026-08-05 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 2029ae17e9b4f08fd6de35f58eaa12e90660e23d3815d44e02c442046300e361 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - altavapor.com - blackcodes.blog - bloomingcamille.com - brianaroseconsulting.com - chimera-casting.com - deborahbaduel.com - emzcp.co.in - evconsultings.com - fablesandflora.com - howellbaptist.org - kabirugulma.pro - kinesiose.fr - kp-cat.co.uk - label-escale.fr - massagesdore.fr ... +35 more ## 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. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2017-06-10 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-26 15:09:22 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-26 13:10:36 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 16:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-26 18:16:44 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f040b-adb5-7649-b1ed-8cc2872e81ac/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/9cb3ca71-fc50-45f5-8ee6-8d89b6da29f3 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/airdropalert.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.airdropalert.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=airdropalert.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/airdropalert.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/airdropalert.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 15:20:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged for brand impersonation targeting cryptocurrency users through fake airdrop schemes. The site mimics legitimate airdrop platforms to deceive visitors into connecting wallets or sharing private keys, potentially resulting in unauthorized fund transfers or account takeovers. Analysis indicates the domain is designed to exploit the growing popularity of token airdrops, a common tactic in crypto-related fraud campaigns. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 10, 2017, through NAMECHEAP INC, a registrar frequently associated with both legitimate and malicious domains. Despite its age, the domain remains active and has been included in 8 AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses, suggesting recurring malicious activity. VirusTotal reports 0 detections out of 95 security engines, indicating the site may not yet be widely flagged by automated systems. The domain currently resolves to IP address 192.0.78.221, and its SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, which does not inherently indicate legitimacy. Users who have visited airdropalert.com should immediately disconnect any connected wallets and revoke permissions for suspicious smart contracts. Monitor blockchain transactions for unauthorized activity and report any anomalies to the relevant platform. If personal information or credentials were entered, reset passwords and enable multi-factor authentication where possible. Security teams should block the domain and IP at the network level and monitor for related indicators of compromise, such as wallet addresses or additional domains registered through the same registrar. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260626-561C2F Favicon MD5: 30f0fe9b720ebfe05d90d0982778744a TLS cert SHA-256: 2029ae17e9b4f08fd6de35f58eaa12e90660e23d3815d44e02c442046300e361 ## 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/airdropalert.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=airdropalert.com 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.
