Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies confirm-address-changing.vercel.app as a phishing scam designed to deceive users into revealing personal or financial information by mimicking legitimate address verification processes. This domain leverages a fraudulent SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services to appear trustworthy, exploiting user trust in familiar security indicators. The threat is elevated due to its active status and the tactic of impersonating official communication, which often involves urgent language to prompt immediate action. This domain was flagged by 1 security blocklist and 15 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating widespread detection of its malicious intent. It resolves to IP 216.198.79.131 and is registered through Vercel Inc., a legitimate hosting provider often abused by threat actors to host phishing pages. The use of a Google Trust Services SSL certificate further complicates detection, as users may assume the site is legitimate due to the familiar green padlock icon in their browser. OpenPhish has already blacklisted this domain, underscoring its malicious nature. If you visited confirm-address-changing.vercel.app, do not enter any personal or financial information. Immediately close the browser tab and clear your cache to remove any stored data. Run a full antivirus scan on your device to detect potential malware. Report the domain to your IT security team or the hosting provider (Vercel Inc.) to aid in its takedown. Stay vigilant for unsolicited emails or messages requesting address updates, as these are common vectors for this type of phishing scam. ## 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/confirm-address-changing.vercel.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=confirm-address-changing.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.
