Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies amlclear.net as a suspicious domain posing as an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance platform, likely designed to facilitate cryptocurrency drainer operations. This domain mimics legitimate financial compliance services to deceive users into connecting wallets or submitting credentials, which are then exploited to siphon digital assets. The threat actor leverages brand impersonation—targeting individuals or entities seeking AML verification—to trick victims into irreversible crypto transactions. Given the domain’s recent creation and lack of detection on VirusTotal, users should exercise extreme caution when encountering this site. This domain exhibits multiple red flags confirmed through technical analysis. amlclear.net resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3 and was registered on May 07, 2026 through Global Domain Group LLC using a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. As of the latest scan, the domain remains undetected by 95 security engines on VirusTotal, indicating it has not yet been widely flagged despite its malicious intent. The domain’s age—being only days old—and its placement in a high-risk IP range further suggest it is part of a rapidly deployed campaign. These indicators, combined with the absence of prior blocklist entries, point to an emerging but credible threat. If you have visited amlclear.net, immediately disconnect any connected cryptocurrency wallets and revoke any unauthorized permissions via your wallet interface. Do not enter personal information, upload documents, or sign any transactions. Monitor your wallet and transaction history closely for signs of unauthorized transfers. Report the domain to your browser’s security team and consider blocking it using your firewall or DNS filtering tools. If financial loss occurs, file a report with local law enforcement and your country’s financial crime unit, providing transaction hashes and wallet addresses. Stay vigilant—legitimate AML services do not solicit crypto payments or wallet connections through unsolicited websites. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 3c1378d54608925fe1dff523c02e4f7a TLS cert SHA-256: 9b21ab4aec09d7519b119af3e66f44a6c82c3c4b248e038f554317b900cdd199 ## 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/amlclear.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=amlclear.net 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.
