# PhishDestroy threat dossier — claim-edgex.exchange ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 19:22:21 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/claim-edgex.exchange/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 98/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Fake Exchange ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 5/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, CyRadar, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Seclookup URLQuery: 3 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/namesilo-killed-our-twitter https://phishdestroy.io/xmrwallet-namesilo-exposed Nameservers: ["jim.ns.cloudflare.com", "gracie.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-04-16 Expires: 2027-04-08 Page title: Edge Whitelist Registration ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-07-07 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: c80817899533a8ff1b107c0650df814a8ca3a63169b55225e064b3679f2ff760 ## 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. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-16 17:53:22 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-16 14:55:16 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-22 01:40:15 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 00:28:00 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d96c7-791e-731f-9c41-1ba64572273b/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/db9dd18b-3176-4c69-b133-b09b988b9116 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/claim-edgex.exchange crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.claim-edgex.exchange Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=claim-edgex.exchange AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/claim-edgex.exchange URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/claim-edgex.exchange/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-16 17:53:46 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies claim-edgex.exchange as an active crypto drainer targeting unsuspecting cryptocurrency users. This domain is currently operational and leverages deceptive tactics to trick users into connecting their wallets, resulting in unauthorized fund transfers. The site does not represent any legitimate entity and should be treated as a high-risk threat to digital assets. This domain was flagged by 2 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating limited but confirmed malicious activity. It resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, is registered through NameSilo, LLC, and was created on April 08, 2026. It has appeared on 1 security blocklist and holds no trust scores due to its recent registration and malicious classification. The use of a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate does not confer legitimacy. Claim-edgex.exchange is currently active and should be avoided at all costs. Users who have visited this site should immediately disconnect their wallets, revoke any connected permissions, and transfer remaining funds to a secure wallet. Monitor transaction history closely for unauthorized activity. Report this domain to your antivirus provider and relevant cybersecurity platforms to help block its distribution. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260416-7770C8 TLS cert SHA-256: c80817899533a8ff1b107c0650df814a8ca3a63169b55225e064b3679f2ff760 ## 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/claim-edgex.exchange/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=claim-edgex.exchange 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.
