Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is claim-zinc.cash a Crypto Drainer? The domain claim-zinc.cash was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and first observed on July 25, 2026, the same date it was created. Its authoritative nameservers are kip.ns.cloudflare.com and meera.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating that the domain is hosted behind Cloudflare’s edge network. DNS resolution points to the IP address 172.67.175.29, a Cloudflare‑owned address that provides no direct insight into the underlying web server or hosting provider. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy mitigation service, confirming that at least one defensive platform has identified it as malicious. VirusTotal reports that the domain was scanned by 91 antivirus and URL‑reputation vendors; at the time of analysis none of those vendors raised a detection, but the absence of a detection does not constitute evidence of safety. No additional public intelligence such as Google Safe Browsing, OTX entries, SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, or page title information is currently available for this domain. The limited visibility leaves uncertainty about the exact payload or luring technique, though the classification as a “crypto drainer” suggests an intent to illicitly acquire cryptocurrency from victims. Defenders should continue to monitor the domain for changes in reputation, enforce blocking of the resolved IP address and associated Cloudflare edge nodes, and consider adding the domain to internal deny lists. Network‑level controls that inspect outbound cryptocurrency transactions can mitigate potential loss. Ongoing collection of passive DNS, sinkhole, and sandbox observations is recommended to refine the threat profile and detect any future infrastructure pivots. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 11db69e74226c671d729f4c52f6d75ce TLS cert SHA-256: 70642faec0bbd78b62ade7555412a5173508b07e5bf23dbeead4934958d817db ## 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/claim-zinc.cash/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=claim-zinc.cash 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.
