# PhishDestroy threat dossier — blockchainlegal.services ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-07 01:18:31 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/blockchainlegal.services/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 78/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: Blockchain.com ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, G-Data, Seclookup, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 45.141.59.162 (NL, Dronten) ASN: ASAS213373 IPCONNECT IP Connect Inc, SC Hosting org: AS213373 IP Connect Inc Registrar: eNom, LLC Nameservers: 1 Registered: 2024-12-20 Expires: 2025-08-14 Page title: Blockchain Legal - Cyber and Cryptocurrency Intelligence Solutions ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2024-12-20 (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) First reported: 2025-08-07 10:02:28 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-07 00:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-09 01:12:48 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019884a0-0562-758d-9cd2-97c4c49855ec/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/blockchainlegal.services crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.blockchainlegal.services Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=blockchainlegal.services AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/blockchainlegal.services URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/blockchainlegal.services/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 18:26:17 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain blockchainlegal.services has been identified as a brand impersonation threat specifically targeting users of Blockchain.com, a well-known cryptocurrency platform. This domain was registered on December 20, 2024, through eNom, LLC, and is currently offline, but its purpose was to deceive visitors into believing they were interacting with legitimate Blockchain.com services. The page title, "Blockchain Legal - Cyber and Cryptocurrency Intelligence Solutions," further reinforces the fraudulent narrative, aiming to appear as a credible legal and cybersecurity resource related to cryptocurrency. Technical analysis reveals several red flags. The domain resolves to IP address 45.141.59.162 and was flagged by 6 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating a high probability of malicious intent. It appears on one security blocklist and was found in a single threat intelligence pulse on AlienVault OTX. The absence of an SSL certificate is another concerning indicator, as legitimate services typically encrypt user connections. These combined factors point to the domain being part of a cryptocurrency drainer operation, designed to steal login credentials or private keys from unsuspecting users. Although the domain has been taken offline, users should remain vigilant. PhishDestroy recommends that anyone who may have interacted with blockchainlegal.services immediately change their Blockchain.com passwords and enable two-factor authentication. For future reference, always verify the authenticity of any domain claiming to be associated with Blockchain.com by checking official sources. PhishDestroy provides real-time verification tools to help users avoid such threats. Stay safe by only accessing cryptocurrency services through bookmarked URLs or official apps, and never enter sensitive information on unverified sites. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: de37a922d3e635d8cfd37473d42a08fb3cd882d095df8a3f6014a9e06e3312f1 ## 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/blockchainlegal.services/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=blockchainlegal.services 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.
