Domain was flagged dead on 2026-04-14 17:34:05 UTC but a fresh report was filed on 2026-04-17 04:54:34 UTC — it is back or never truly suspended. Reports filed: 2 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-04-14 18:20:43 UTC Latest report: 2026-04-17 04:54:34 UTC Days since first notice: 8 — no registrar action, domain remains online ICANN Compliance CC'd on at least one escalation — non-response is on record. Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies.

Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies active brand impersonation targeting Arbitrum users via the domain arbtrumbridge.cc. This site is currently under investigation but remains accessible, posing a credible risk of cryptocurrency theft through fake wallet connections or login pages. The domain abuses Arbitrum’s branding to deceive visitors into authorizing fraudulent transactions or revealing private keys. Users who connect wallets or enter credentials risk irreversible asset loss. This domain was flagged with 0 detections out of 95 VirusTotal engines, suggesting it has evaded broad security screening to date. It resolves to IP 104.21.92.36 and uses a Google Trust Services SSL certificate for added legitimacy. Registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on August 16, 2025, the domain includes an anomalous page title (www.www.arbtrumbridge.cc) that indicates redirection or deliberate obfuscation. It has not yet appeared on major blocklists such as Google Safe Browsing or PhishTank, allowing continued operation while under review. To mitigate risk, avoid visiting arbtrumbridge.cc or any subdomain claiming Arbitrum services. If you’ve already connected a wallet, revoke unauthorized permissions immediately using tools like Revoke.cash or your wallet’s built-in security settings. Always verify domains by checking the official Arbitrum website (arbitrum.io) or cross-referencing with PhishDestroy before entering credentials or authorizing transactions. Report any suspicious interactions to Arbitrum’s official security channels. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1776180040-arbtrumbridge.c Favicon MD5: 9224abf3978884071a121a239c69a135 ## 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/arbtrumbridge.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=arbtrumbridge.cc 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.
