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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:24:39 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-13 07:46:54 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-07 03:29:30 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/01997c03-d46e-75a8-a74a-eaa1c6f150fa/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/asters.de.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.asters.de.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=asters.de.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/asters.de.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/asters.de.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 15:27:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies asters.de.com as a medium-risk phishing domain designed to deceive users and harvest sensitive information. Phishing threats like this pose significant danger by tricking individuals into revealing personal or financial data, leading to identity theft and financial loss. Timely detection and removal are crucial to minimize user exposure to such scams. The domain asters.de.com was registered recently, on February 21, 2026, through a defunct registrar service labeled as 'Dead domain.' It has since been taken offline following detection on three separate security blocklists. VirusTotal analysis reveals 9 out of 95 security vendors flagged this domain as suspicious, corroborating its phishing classification. Its rapid emergence and blocklisting indicate active attempts at fraudulent activity before swift mitigation. Users should remain vigilant when encountering links related to asters.de.com or similar variants. It is advisable to verify the legitimacy of URLs before clicking and avoid providing sensitive details on suspicious websites. Organizations are encouraged to update their email and network security tools to block this domain and educate users about recognizing phishing attempts. Staying informed and cautious helps prevent compromise stemming from such malicious domains. ## 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/asters.de.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=asters.de.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.
