# PhishDestroy threat dossier — aml.verifylinkcenter.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-13 14:01:03 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/aml.verifylinkcenter.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 81/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: AML Scam Targeted brand: AML Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/92 security vendors flagged this domain ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: Realtime Register B.V. Nameservers: gwen.ns.cloudflare.com, jerry.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-11 Page title: AML - Comprehensive AML Compliance Solutions for Crypto ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-05 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 745de13f909d33a9e02fc273ed4ee24ab7815abfff74fdc9fec98d9aa3d025d4 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - verifylinkcenter.com ## 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: 2026-05-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-11 14:21:51 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-05-11 11:22:52 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-13 13:40:02 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-11 19:51:24 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e16c3-bbf2-7248-83ef-009653d7cb69/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/bbcd7437-4608-4484-be51-da87b936f079 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/aml.verifylinkcenter.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.aml.verifylinkcenter.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=aml.verifylinkcenter.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/aml.verifylinkcenter.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/aml.verifylinkcenter.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-11 14:22:35 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies aml.verifylinkcenter.com as a high-risk brand impersonation domain targeting AML Scam users. The site masquerades as a legitimate compliance platform, claiming to offer crypto AML solutions, but serves no real function beyond stealing credentials or cryptocurrency. PhishDestroy analysts flagged this domain due to its suspicious origin and lack of detection despite clear impersonation intent. The site was registered on May 07, 2024, through Realtime Register B.V. and currently resolves to IP 188.114.97.3. Despite appearing benign with a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, VirusTotal shows zero detections out of 95 security engines — a strong indicator of a newly deployed threat still under the radar. If you visited aml.verifylinkcenter.com, do not enter any personal, financial, or login information. Close the tab immediately and run a malware scan using your antivirus software. Report the domain to your browser and security provider. If you submitted credentials or crypto wallet details, change passwords immediately and contact your financial institution. Monitor accounts for unauthorized transactions and consider revoking any connected app permissions. Always verify domains by typing URLs manually or using official bookmarks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260511-37FC0C TLS cert SHA-256: 745de13f909d33a9e02fc273ed4ee24ab7815abfff74fdc9fec98d9aa3d025d4 ## 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.verifylinkcenter.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=aml.verifylinkcenter.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.
