Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies bitkey-setup-guide.pages.dev as a high-risk domain impersonating the official Bitkey cryptocurrency wallet setup process. This fraudulent page is currently active and leverages Cloudflare’s infrastructure to distribute a counterfeit wallet installation guide, targeting users seeking secure cryptocurrency solutions. The threat involves fake setup instructions designed to steal sensitive wallet credentials or inject malicious software under the guise of legitimate software updates. This domain was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors at the time of analysis, indicating it remains undetected by mainstream security engines despite hosting malicious content. Registered through Cloudflare, Inc., the domain resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3 and operates under a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, which may lend false credibility to unaware users. While no blocklist entries were found in public databases (e.g., PhishTank, OpenPhish), the domain’s recent creation date and low trust metrics suggest an emergent or evolving threat vector. The current status of bitkey-setup-guide.pages.dev remains under active investigation, but preliminary findings confirm its use in phishing campaigns targeting Bitkey wallet users. To mitigate risk, users are strongly advised to only download wallet software from the official Bitkey website (bitkey.app) and verify all download links via the official source or trusted cryptocurrency directories. Security teams should block traffic to 188.114.96.3 at the network perimeter and monitor endpoints for anomalous wallet-related activity or credential harvesting attempts. Further, consider reporting this domain to Cloudflare’s abuse team to expedite takedown. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 2cc41790ef81b3ad77d17412bd7697b9 TLS cert SHA-256: 603043b404c1a7421eccf2823cfe9ef7ce2245a1ba743c6ce8d30eed5faa382f ## 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/bitkey-setup-guide.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bitkey-setup-guide.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.
