Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified an active generic phishing domain hosted via IPFS at bafkreiemq3unlavdpaukq5tmpshnass4cuyqrq3cu2af7ibtf7tuzxz4li.ipfs.dweb.link. This domain poses a credible threat as it is weaponized to deceive users into divulging sensitive credentials or downloading malicious payloads under the guise of legitimate services. The threat actor behind this domain leverages IPFS infrastructure to obfuscate hosting origins while maintaining persistent access via a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, which may lull users into a false sense of security. Intelligence indicates this domain has been operational since February 24, 2017—long enough to establish a foothold in various blocklists—yet continues to serve as an active vector for credential harvesting and malware distribution campaigns. This domain exhibits clear indicators of malicious intent, corroborated by multiple security platforms. VirusTotal analysis confirms detection by 8 out of 95 security vendors, reflecting moderate but concerning consensus on its harmful nature. The domain is registered through CSC Corporate Domains, Inc., a reputable registrar often abused in bulk domain registrations for phishing operations. It resolves to IP address 209.94.90.3, which has been previously associated with phishing infrastructure and unauthorized data exfiltration attempts. The combination of an aged domain, trusted SSL issuer, and partial detection coverage underscores the sophistication of this campaign, which aims to exploit trust in established web protocols and decentralized hosting platforms. Users who have encountered this domain should take immediate action to mitigate potential compromise. If you visited this link or entered any credentials, assume your data may have been exposed and rotate passwords across all accounts using the same credentials. Enable multi-factor authentication wherever possible and scan all devices for signs of compromise using updated antivirus tools. Report this domain to your organization’s SOC or local CERT, and consider blocking both the domain and IP address (209.94.90.3) at the network perimeter. Maintain heightened vigilance for follow-on phishing attempts, as threat actors frequently reuse compromised credentials to escalate attacks against individuals and organizations. Proactive monitoring and rapid response are critical to preventing further exploitation. ## 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/bafkreiemq3unlavdpaukq5tmpshnass4cuyqrq3cu2af7ibtf7tuzxz4li.ipfs.dweb.link/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bafkreiemq3unlavdpaukq5tmpshnass4cuyqrq3cu2af7ibtf7tuzxz4li.ipfs.dweb.link 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.
