Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] base-ripsconnect.xyz phishing site impersonates crypto wallet Analysis indicates that base-ripsconnect.xyz is an active phishing domain registered on July 19, 2026, through Unstoppable Domains Inc. Infrastructure analysis reveals Cloudflare nameservers (anastasia.ns.cloudflare.com and thaddeus.ns.cloudflare.com) and resolution to IP address 45.9.148.81. The domain appears on three security blocklists and is explicitly flagged by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL as a high-risk threat targeting cryptocurrency wallet credentials. As of July 20, 2026, two of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal detect the domain, though the exact content of the phishing page remains unconfirmed. The combination of registrar, hosting infrastructure, and targeted blocklist entries suggests a campaign designed to harvest login details for crypto wallets, likely through a spoofed login interface. Defenders should treat this domain as malicious and prioritize blocking both the domain and its resolving IP in web gateways and endpoint protection systems. Further investigation into related infrastructure, such as domains sharing the same IP or nameservers, is recommended to identify additional threats associated with this campaign. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260720-1E3D75 TLS cert SHA-256: 76934988a3f191812d33a0be336e877daf56cab1c656a4151d4ab8457fb3345d ## 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 (operator 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/base-ripsconnect.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=base-ripsconnect.xyz 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
