Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] buy-trx.com — Crypto Drainer Phishing Domain Report Analysis of buy-trx.com indicates a high-risk crypto drainer phishing domain active as of July 12, 2026. The domain was registered on July 7, 2026, through Internet Domain Service BS Corp., with nameservers damien.ns.cloudflare.com and lisa.ns.cloudflare.com, pointing to Cloudflare infrastructure. It resolves to IP 104.21.30.152 (AS13335, Cloudflare, Inc., US) and returns an HTTP 200 status. The page title, 'Buy TRX with USDT & TRON Energy Purchase | Fast, Secure, Reliable,' suggests targeting of cryptocurrency users, specifically those transacting in TRX (TRON) and USDT (Tether). Known intelligence classifies this as a crypto drainer scam, a type of phishing attack designed to siphon digital assets from victims' wallets. Security vendors have flagged the domain, with 3 of 91 detections on VirusTotal. It appears on one security blocklist and is blocked by PhishDestroy. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), and detected technologies include Cloudflare Browser Insights and HTTP/3. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0/100, reinforcing its malicious classification. No legitimate association with TRON or USDT trading platforms is confirmed. Defenders should treat this domain as active and high-risk. Block resolution at the DNS level and monitor for connections to 104.21.30.152. Given the use of Cloudflare, IP-based blocking may affect unrelated services, so domain-specific mitigations are recommended. The short registration window (5 days old) aligns with typical phishing domain lifecycle patterns, suggesting potential volatility in hosting or infrastructure changes. Further analysis of the site's backend or wallet addresses may provide additional indicators for tracking or takedown efforts. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 3/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 2e53ce1a6aec572248e9c9ddf85a48c9 TLS cert SHA-256: 1be7d21a1270298bbb4a00f22f9b00bc2a199f4f93b9d25f5336b15a4809acea ## 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/buy-trx.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=buy-trx.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
