Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, ccip-front-5198-design-system-remov-chainlinklabs.vercel.app, poses a high-risk brand impersonation threat specifically targeting Chainlink users. The site mimics the official Chainlink CCIP Explorer interface, potentially tricking visitors into disclosing sensitive credentials or interacting with malicious smart contracts. Such impersonation attempts are commonly used to facilitate crypto asset theft, unauthorized access to wallets, or the deployment of crypto drainers designed to siphon funds from connected accounts. The site’s deceptive design and use of Chainlink branding create a false sense of legitimacy, increasing the likelihood of successful exploitation for unsuspecting users. Analysis indicates this domain is part of a coordinated impersonation campaign. The domain was registered through Tucows Domains Inc. on February 21, 2026, an unusually future-dated creation that may suggest domain spoofing or a placeholder entry. VirusTotal reports that 22 out of 95 security vendors have flagged the domain as malicious, with detections including phishing and brand impersonation. The site is hosted on IP address 216.198.79.3, associated with AS16509 (Amazon.com, Inc.), and uses an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services. Google Safe Browsing has classified the domain as phishing, and it appears on at least one security blocklist, further corroborating its malicious intent. Users who have visited ccip-front-5198-design-system-remov-chainlinklabs.vercel.app should take immediate action to mitigate potential risks. Disconnect any wallets or accounts that may have been linked to the site and revoke any active smart contract approvals using tools like a blockchain explorer or wallet management interface. Scan the device used to access the site for malware or unauthorized extensions, as impersonation sites often deploy additional payloads. Monitor connected accounts and crypto wallets for unauthorized transactions, and report the domain to relevant security teams or threat intelligence platforms to aid in broader mitigation efforts. If credentials were entered, reset passwords and enable multi-factor authentication on all associated accounts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 9556c495fac23f3729ad4fa14fcf3e23 TLS cert SHA-256: 4b377d7d8e1770bbe1519b5896246c116ab3aea968434658b330f054f7ea4338 ## 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/ccip-front-5198-design-system-remov-chainlinklabs.vercel.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ccip-front-5198-design-system-remov-chainlinklabs.vercel.app 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.
