Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies byvotes.online as active crypto drainer infrastructure under investigation, with a current risk level flagged for potential credential and asset theft. This domain was flagged through internal analysis with key indicators pointing to malicious intent. VirusTotal reports zero detections out of 95 engines at the time of assessment. The domain resolves to IP 188.114.97.3, was registered on April 24, 2026, and operates under a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate using HOSTINGER operations, UAB as the registrar. No presence on major blocklists was observed at discovery, though trust scores remain critically low given the threat type. Organizations and individuals should block byvotes.online at the network and DNS levels, avoid any interaction with the domain, and inspect endpoints for signs of crypto wallet compromise or credential theft. Users who may have engaged with this site should revoke wallet connections, change passwords, and monitor for unauthorized transactions. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: af20686a3a8c36e913b20c1d93a45adb TLS cert SHA-256: f4416a06bb4b4fb4434268f6676b7ab6a6e73443a780289f53fedd6d0c5e9930 ## 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/byvotes.online/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=byvotes.online 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.
