Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies bitcoin-cashapp-illustrated.com as an active brand-impersonation page targeting Bitcoin users with fraudulent Cash App instructions. The site masquerades as an educational guide titled 'How To Send Bitcoin Using Cash App,' luring victims into interacting with a crypto drainer kit designed to siphon funds from connected wallets. Technical analysis confirms the infrastructure is configured to harvest private keys and transaction approvals under the guise of legitimate guidance, posing an elevated risk to unaware users who follow the embedded links or download any promoted software. This domain was flagged by 11 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and resolves to IP address 5.183.209.135. The domain was registered on April 05, 2024, through TUCOWS.COM, CO., and secured with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. It remains unlisted on Google Safe Browsing (GSB) as of the latest scan, and further reputation analysis indicates it has already been added to multiple blocklists, including community-driven threat feeds, reinforcing its malicious classification. The site is currently live and actively serving the fraudulent content. PhishDestroy has added bitcoin-cashapp-illustrated.com to its real-time blocklist and is coordinating takedown efforts with hosting providers and registrars. Despite these actions, the domain’s recent creation and use of bulletproof hosting elements suggest a moderate risk of re-emergence under new permutations. Users are strongly advised to avoid clicking any links associated with this domain and to verify URLs using PhishDestroy’s verification tool before engaging with financial or cryptocurrency-related content. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260506-C7B915 ## 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/bitcoin-cashapp-illustrated.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bitcoin-cashapp-illustrated.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.
