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 07:09:15 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-13 07:07:50 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-23 20:20:36 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/019ebf61-4c28-7238-bb2b-7842c133507f/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/app-grassfoundation.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.app-grassfoundation.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=app-grassfoundation.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/app-grassfoundation.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/app-grassfoundation.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-13 09:41:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies app-grassfoundation.com as a high-risk fake charity donation scam designed to harvest credit card details and personal information from well-intentioned donors. The domain impersonates legitimate grassroots foundations by using similar branding and urgent donation appeals, tricking users into entering payment credentials on fraudulent donation forms. This specific threat targets individuals looking to support charitable causes, exploiting their trust and generosity to commit financial fraud. This domain was flagged by only 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating low detection rates and suggesting the scam is relatively new or sophisticated. It is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with malicious domains, and resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3. The SSL certificate, issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), provides a false sense of security, as encrypted connections do not guarantee legitimacy. No additional blocklist data is currently available, but the domain’s recent creation and lack of widespread detection highlight its deceptive nature. Users who visited app-grassfoundation.com should immediately cease all interactions and avoid entering any personal or financial information. If credentials or payment details were already submitted, affected individuals should contact their bank or credit card provider to report potential fraud and request a card replacement. Run a full antivirus scan on any device used to access the site to check for malware or keyloggers. Additionally, monitor financial statements for unauthorized transactions and consider placing a fraud alert with credit bureaus. Report the domain to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) or your local cybercrime authority to help prevent further victims. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 6bba49c52bbbbcf5c75a8c78da001e1a TLS cert SHA-256: 5a33674e17572b0fb05925ef5b0a17a2fd5116906c53e92db65b4d9091d61ac1 ## 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/app-grassfoundation.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=app-grassfoundation.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.
