Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies apollo-telegram.tech as a brand impersonation domain targeting Telegram users by presenting a fraudulent Apollo TON Wallet Connector page. This domain attempts to deceive users by leveraging Telegram's brand recognition, though its risk level is assessed as low. Despite the impersonation intent, the threat posed by this domain is minimal due to limited exposure and few detections. The domain apollo-telegram.tech was registered on July 1, 2025, through the Russian registrar REGRU-RU and resolves to the IP address 62.84.123.65. It currently appears on one security blocklist and is flagged by only one out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, reflecting very low detection rates. Additionally, its Gridinsoft trust score is 0/100, further indicating a low threat profile. The page title found was "Apollo TON Wallet Connector," which is unrelated to the official Telegram brand but used to lure unsuspecting users. As of now, the domain is offline, effectively mitigating any ongoing risk. Users and security teams are advised to remain vigilant against similar brand impersonation attempts, especially those involving cryptocurrency-related services. It is recommended to verify URLs carefully and rely on official sources when accessing wallet connectors or messaging platforms. Continued monitoring for potential reactivation or related domains is also suggested. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: 2e447c3657c9be29612a82098330476ee4748edaca686255570c34712f10b638 TLS cert SHA-256: fe030274deb4702844b1ff14aa280cd684414e05626face837cda1535e351bd4 ## 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/apollo-telegram.tech/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=apollo-telegram.tech 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.
