# PhishDestroy threat dossier — aml-crypto-checker.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-21 22:23:40 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/aml-crypto-checker.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: AML Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.220.65 Registrar: Cloudflare, Inc. Nameservers: jocelyn.ns.cloudflare.com, odin.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-13 Expires: 2027-06-11 Page title: Best Telegram Bots & Tools to Check a Crypto Wallet for AML, Sanctions & OFAC in 2026 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-09 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 2ed724846be851785bfa3c76a16ba2c9ea9264aaf0807b1f72e90a64fff241c2 ## 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: 2026-06-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-13 06:38:50 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-13 06:38:50 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-22 00:20:33 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-16 00:51:20 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ebf44-adeb-729f-bebc-8210ec913c7b/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/aml-crypto-checker.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.aml-crypto-checker.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=aml-crypto-checker.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/aml-crypto-checker.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/aml-crypto-checker.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-13 09:43:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified aml-crypto-checker.com as a potential crypto drainer scam targeting cryptocurrency users with fraudulent anti-money laundering (AML) verification tools. This domain appears designed to trick victims into connecting their digital wallets, enabling attackers to siphon funds through malicious smart contracts or phishing scripts. Crypto drainers are particularly insidious as they often masquerade as legitimate security checks, exploiting users' concerns about compliance and fraud prevention to gain access to sensitive wallet credentials. Technical analysis reveals that aml-crypto-checker.com currently exhibits several red flags. As of the latest scan, the domain has 0 detections out of 95 security engines on VirusTotal, indicating it has not yet been widely flagged by major security vendors. The domain was registered through Cloudflare, Inc., a common tactic among threat actors to obscure ownership and hosting details. It resolves to the IP address 172.67.220.65, which is associated with Cloudflare's network, further complicating traceability. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), which, while legitimate, does not guarantee the site's safety. No blocklist entries have been recorded yet, but this is typical for newly deployed phishing domains before they gain wider attention. Users who have visited aml-crypto-checker.com or interacted with its content should take immediate action to secure their assets. First, disconnect any wallets that may have been linked to the site using tools like Revoke.cash or Etherscan's token approval checker. Monitor all connected accounts for unauthorized transactions and consider transferring funds to a new, secure wallet if any suspicious activity is detected. Report the domain to platforms like PhishDestroy, the Anti-Phishing Working Group (APWG), or your local cybercrime unit to aid in takedown efforts. Always verify the legitimacy of AML or compliance tools through official channels before entering sensitive information or connecting wallets. Enable multi-factor authentication on all accounts and use hardware wallets for enhanced security. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - Public blocklists: now listed on 3 feeds ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 2ed724846be851785bfa3c76a16ba2c9ea9264aaf0807b1f72e90a64fff241c2 ## 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/aml-crypto-checker.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=aml-crypto-checker.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.
