No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-22 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-22 15:57:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-23 13:03:44 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019db541-d164-727d-944a-701a3009bf14/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/basonce.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.basonce.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=basonce.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/basonce.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/basonce.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-22 15:59:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Domain basonce.pages.dev has been identified as an active cryptocurrency scam leveraging brand impersonation targeting Ethereum users. This fraudulent platform mimics legitimate exchange services to deceive victims into entering wallet credentials or downloading drainer malware under the guise of trading Bitcoin, Ethereum, and 258+ cryptocurrencies. The page falsely markets itself as a Spot and Futures trading platform while exploiting the trusted Ethereum brand to enhance credibility. Security researchers have not yet determined the specific drainer kit in use, but the infrastructure is designed to harvest sensitive financial data under the facade of a legitimate exchange interface. Technical analysis reveals critical indicators of compromise associated with basonce.pages.dev. The domain resolves to IP 188.114.97.3 and is registered through Cloudflare, Inc., utilizing a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to enhance perceived legitimacy. VirusTotal currently lists 0 out of 95 security engines detecting this domain, indicating a low immediate detection rate despite its malicious intent. The domain remains unlisted on Google Safe Browsing (GSB) as of the latest checks. These attributes, combined with the use of Cloudflare’s infrastructure, complicate rapid takedown and blacklisting efforts. As of this report, basonce.pages.dev remains active and accessible, posing an ongoing threat to users seeking cryptocurrency exchange services. Immediate remediation actions include flagging the domain on security platforms and recommending browser-based blocking via host files or DNS sinkholing. While the lack of detections on VirusTotal suggests this campaign remains nascent, the active status and impersonation of a major blockchain brand elevate the risk significantly. Users are strongly advised to avoid interaction with this domain and verify the authenticity of exchange platforms through official channels. Remaining risk is assessed as high due to the current low detection rate and active infrastructure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 0d69976fb940c327c8382221235aa4f0 TLS cert SHA-256: 1342cf7f5ddca369b08e23c0c1aefafa6d8290156ff81eb6cafe82cc47401124 ## 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/basonce.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=basonce.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.
