No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-02 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-02 15:12:17 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-03 05:30:10 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019de898-ae86-7071-8d74-f4a6020e9ac3/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/bitcoinminetrix-rewards.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.bitcoinminetrix-rewards.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=bitcoinminetrix-rewards.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/bitcoinminetrix-rewards.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/bitcoinminetrix-rewards.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-02 15:13:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies bitcoinminetrix-rewards.pages.dev as an active brand impersonation domain abusing the Bitcoin name to deceive cryptocurrency users into clicking malicious links. The site is currently under investigation as a suspected Bitcoin mining rewards scam leveraging a spoofed rewards platform to harvest credentials or crypto funds. No drainer kit has been retrieved from this URL yet, but the impersonation modus operandi is consistent with known Bitcoin reward phishing campaigns that promise unrealistic mining returns to pressure victims into connecting wallets or entering seed phrases. The page is hosted on Cloudflare Pages, enabling rapid deployment and evasion of traditional takedowns. This domain resolves to IP 188.114.96.3 and is served over HTTPS with a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, giving it an initial appearance of legitimacy. VirusTotal currently returns a clean score of 0/95 detections, indicating it has not yet been widely blacklisted or analyzed by security vendors. Registrar data shows Cloudflare, Inc. as the provider, which aligns with its use of Cloudflare Pages for hosting. The domain was recently registered and remains unflagged by Google Safe Browsing (GSB) and most threat intelligence platforms, leaving it operational and accessible to potential victims worldwide. Its low detection rate and fresh infrastructure make it a high-risk vector for unsuspecting Bitcoin users seeking mining opportunities. Status: Active and under active monitoring. No takedown actions have been recorded as of this analysis. Response coordination is ongoing with Cloudflare Trust & Safety and domain registrars to evaluate abuse evidence and initiate revocation if confirmed malicious. Remaining risk is HIGH due to undetected status, HTTPS encryption, and lack of GSB or blocklist flagging. Users should AVOID interacting with this domain, block 188.114.96.3 at the network level, and report suspicious links via official Bitcoin abuse channels. Exercise extreme caution with any site offering Bitcoin mining rewards via Cloudflare Pages domains. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 2cc41790ef81b3ad77d17412bd7697b9 TLS cert SHA-256: 6ea983dc64a78c3b966df8487aaf42449e65de1ac00dffaf44e73b6bd9940c0d ## 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/bitcoinminetrix-rewards.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bitcoinminetrix-rewards.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.
