Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/buy-tron.ch/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Generic Phishing

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      0/95 security vendors flagged this domain
AlienVault OTX:  2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions)
Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      104.21.10.242 (US, San Francisco)
Hosting org:     AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Registrar:       REGISTRAR_NOT_FOUND
Nameservers:     maleah.ns.cloudflare.com, miles.ns.cloudflare.com
Page title:      Buy TRX with USDT

## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:48:16 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain buy-tron.ch poses as a legitimate platform to exchange USDT for TRX, but it is actually a crypto drainer designed to steal cryptocurrency from unsuspecting users. By mimicking a simple exchange interface, it tricks victims into connecting their wallets or providing private keys, resulting in immediate loss of funds. PhishDestroy has classified this threat as generic phishing and placed it under investigation due to its sophisticated impersonation of a TRX exchange service.

Evidence gathered by PhishDestroy reveals that buy-tron.ch was flagged by three independent security blocklists and appeared in two AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses, indicating prior community awareness. VirusTotal analysis shows zero detections out of 95 scanners, meaning the domain evaded initial automated screening. The site lacks an SSL certificate, a critical red flag for any financial platform. It resolved to IP address 104.21.10.242 and was ultimately taken offline, but not before posing a risk to users searching for TRX conversion tools.

Anyone who visited buy-tron.ch should immediately revoke any wallet permissions granted to the site, transfer remaining funds to a new wallet, and run a full antivirus scan on their device. PhishDestroy recommends always verifying exchange platforms through official channels and using trusted, well-reviewed services for cryptocurrency transactions. Users are urged to report any similar domains to PhishDestroy to help protect the community from evolving phishing threats.

Favicon MD5:       20e4117e295f11d979d7d0342e810c24

## 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.
