Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain apple-dgk.pages.dev is identified as a high-risk brand impersonation threat targeting Apple. The page presents a fraudulent offer titled "Get $500 Apple Upgrade - Claim Reward," which aims to deceive users into providing sensitive information under the guise of an official Apple promotion. No indications of a crypto drainer kit have been reported in association with this domain, focusing solely on brand impersonation tactics. Technical indicators reveal a VirusTotal detection score of 1/95, indicating minimal recognition by security vendors, which underscores the need for heightened vigilance. The domain is registered through Cloudflare, Inc. and was created on June 15, 2026. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3 and appears on one security blocklist. The domain is also blocked by PhishDestroy, which reflects its status as a recognized threat within the security community. Currently, apple-dgk.pages.dev remains active and poses a significant risk to potential victims who may encounter the fraudulent offer. Ongoing monitoring and response actions are critical to mitigate the threat posed by this domain. Users should be advised to avoid engaging with any communications or offers from this domain and to report any encounters to relevant authorities to prevent further exploitation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: b397f25b385c607d6f327cc8e41a2d062fea9ce64d41e56f1ade4adcaabc8318 ## 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/apple-dgk.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=apple-dgk.pages.dev 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.
