Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies airdroptrust.com as a high-risk crypto drainer domain designed to steal cryptocurrency assets from unsuspecting victims. The domain masqueraded as a legitimate security verification page, luring users into providing sensitive information or wallet access. Due to its malicious intent and phishing tactics, this domain posed a significant threat to crypto users seeking airdrop or trust verification services. The domain airdroptrust.com was registered recently on October 23, 2025, and resolved to IP address 185.238.191.23. It was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. The domain was flagged by 11 out of 95 antivirus vendors on VirusTotal and appeared on six separate security blocklists, confirming its malicious nature. Its infrastructure and registration details align with typical patterns observed in crypto phishing and draining operations. Currently, airdroptrust.com has been taken offline, mitigating immediate risk to users. However, PhishDestroy advises continued vigilance against similar emerging domains and recommends that users verify all crypto-related websites carefully. Avoid clicking on unsolicited links or providing wallet credentials to untrusted sources. Organizations should update security filters to block this domain and educate users on recognizing crypto phishing scams. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: f251989e02baf09b4de0b30a97e10f5fa606edcc535870c963ec3e67be1e3929 ## 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/airdroptrust.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=airdroptrust.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.
