Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] coin-dexscreener.com has been identified as a crypto drainer domain under active investigation by PhishDestroy. This domain specifically impersonates CoinGecko, a well-known cryptocurrency market data aggregator, to deceive users into connecting their wallets or divulging sensitive credentials. The threat remains active and is currently categorized as a generic phishing vector with a risk level under investigation pending further analysis. This domain was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors as of the latest scan, indicating no current detections despite its malicious intent. It was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, resolves to IP address 172.67.185.174, and holds a valid SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt. The domain was created on April 24, 2026, which is notably recent, suggesting a hastily deployed operation. Trust scores for this domain remain unverified due to its lack of historical data, further emphasizing the need for immediate scrutiny. As this domain is active and poses a credible threat to users seeking cryptocurrency market data, PhishDestroy recommends blocking coin-dexscreener.com at the network and endpoint levels. Implement DNS sinkholing or firewall rules to prevent access, and alert users to avoid interactions with this domain. Additionally, monitor for any outbound connections to the resolved IP (172.67.185.174) as a potential indicator of compromise. Given the absence of VirusTotal detections, manual review and proactive blocking are critical to mitigating potential risks. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 3/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: a9dc2a5dcb1e7d936e0712524250cda1 TLS cert SHA-256: 9fab72c508a9c0920384af8a83bd6006e469242ecbb89aba2f58e520a114d37a ## 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/coin-dexscreener.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=coin-dexscreener.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
