Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies braveminerlimited.com as a medium-risk phishing domain currently active on the web. Despite presenting itself as a legitimate site under the name Brave Miners Limited, this domain appears on a security blocklist and has been flagged by multiple security vendors, indicating potential danger to users who interact with it. The domain’s recent registration and suspicious hosting details further raise concerns about its trustworthiness. This phishing scheme likely aims to deceive visitors by mimicking a legitimate business homepage, enticing users to enter sensitive information such as login credentials or financial data. Attackers behind braveminerlimited.com exploit this trust to harvest personal details, which can then be used for identity theft or financial fraud. The domain’s use of generic phishing tactics makes it especially important for users to remain vigilant and avoid engaging with any requests for confidential information. Users are advised to avoid visiting braveminerlimited.com and to never provide personal or financial details if accidentally landed on this site. Employing updated antivirus software and enabling browser security features can help block access to such malicious domains. In case of any suspicious activity linked to this domain, immediate password changes and monitoring of financial accounts are recommended. Staying informed and cautious is key to preventing phishing attacks from domains like braveminerlimited.com. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: 88ab1baeb0a1ebce195a1410a06e7ba25f23030ea17a506604d2e1259e84b18a TLS cert SHA-256: 451bc37d79a9795433784b9011604656ed7b1f6914213e6705cf5a881945dac5 ## 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/braveminerlimited.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=braveminerlimited.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.
