# PhishDestroy threat dossier — airdropsalert.pro ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-25 06:00:56 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/airdropsalert.pro/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: gmail (and: google) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 18/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Google Safebrowsing, Lionic, MalwareURL, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot AlienVault OTX: 2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 6 independent blocklists Google Safe Browsing: FLAGGED Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 216.58.206.36 (DE, Frankfurt am Main) ASN: ASAS15169 GOOGLE, US Hosting org: AS15169 Google LLC Registrar: Cloudflare, Inc. Nameservers: brenna.ns.cloudflare.com, hassan.ns.cloudflare.com Page title: Google HTTP response: 530 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-11-23 22:39:30 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-24 19:26:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 04:42:15 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ab2de-fd04-762e-be47-6a3619971f60/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/airdropsalert.pro crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.airdropsalert.pro Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=airdropsalert.pro AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/airdropsalert.pro URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/airdropsalert.pro/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 03:05:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies airdropsalert.pro as a high-risk domain associated with crypto drainers targeting unsuspecting users. The site falsely uses the page title "Google" to mislead visitors into trusting the content. This domain is primarily involved in social engineering attacks aimed at stealing cryptocurrency credentials or assets. Technical analysis reveals that airdropsalert.pro was registered via Cloudflare, Inc. and resolved to the IP address 216.58.206.36, which is linked to a major hosting provider. It was flagged by 18 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal and appeared on six different security blocklists, indicating widespread recognition of its malicious intent. AlienVault OTX data shows the domain involved in two distinct threat pulses, and Google Safe Browsing classifies it under social engineering threats. Currently, airdropsalert.pro is taken offline, preventing further victimization. Despite being inactive, its historical presence on multiple threat intelligence sources underscores the importance of vigilance. Users encountering this domain should avoid interaction and report any suspicious activity related to it to their security teams or relevant authorities. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: e8972ce34a4545b33c3926a20c306b71 ## 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/airdropsalert.pro/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=airdropsalert.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.
