No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-14 20:20:29 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-03-31 01:25:18 UTC (STALE — 26 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-03-06 03:38:15 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 26 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 26 days stale) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c5d29-3ada-709e-9614-8139daf3665c/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/bdagclaims.network crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.bdagclaims.network Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=bdagclaims.network AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/bdagclaims.network URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/bdagclaims.network/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 02:03:08 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies bdagclaims.network as a high-risk crypto drainer domain that posed significant danger to cryptocurrency users. The domain masqueraded under the guise of a legitimate blockchain project titled "BlockDAG Launch | CLAIM Blockdag | Layer 1 Crypto 2026 Now LIVE!" aiming to lure victims into fraudulent activities. Its primary objective was to drain cryptocurrencies from unsuspecting victims, leveraging the hype around new crypto launches and Layer 1 blockchain technology. The domain was registered on February 21, 2026, through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and resolved to IP address 172.67.178.78. VirusTotal analysis flagged the domain by 10 out of 95 security vendors, and it appeared on 3 separate security blocklists, underscoring its malicious nature. The domain utilized convincing branding and messaging to exploit users' trust in emerging crypto projects and likely employed sophisticated social engineering techniques to facilitate crypto theft. Currently, bdagclaims.network has been taken offline, effectively mitigating its threat vector. PhishDestroy recommends users remain vigilant against similar crypto drainer scams and avoid interacting with suspicious domains, especially those promising new blockchain launches or token claims. Organizations should continue monitoring threat feeds and update security controls to block related infrastructure and prevent exposure to evolving crypto theft campaigns. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 6d02b41b62c63b182b561dcea712b64955155378b3df0ad08246fcb3bc08b782 ## 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/bdagclaims.network/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bdagclaims.network 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.
