Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain blastdesktopinst.icu is flagged for brand impersonation, targeting the brand 'Blast'. Analysis indicates that the domain was registered on July 09, 2026, and is currently active. The page title 'Blast Desktop | Download for Windows' suggests that the site is impersonating an official Blast download page. The domain resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3 and is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. An SSL certificate from Google Trust Services is present, which may give users a false sense of security. The domain has been noted in one threat intelligence pulse on AlienVault OTX, indicating potential malicious activity. Defenders should monitor this domain closely and advise users to verify the authenticity of any download requests for Blast Desktop by visiting the official Blast website. Any instances of users accessing this domain should be treated with caution, and further investigation is recommended to confirm the nature of the threat and to prevent potential credential theft or malware distribution. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260713-EEEA8E TLS cert SHA-256: 3c3f92acc2e189ddb16b58be1dbb297b37b7590e9afd51b2ff44e788b6efe675 ## 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 (operator 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/blastdesktopinst.icu/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=blastdesktopinst.icu 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
