# PhishDestroy threat dossier — connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-14 08:04:44 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 47/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Cluster25, Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 34.144.206.118 (US, Kansas City) ASN: ASAS396982 GOOGLE-CLOUD-PLATFORM - Google LLC, US Hosting org: AS396982 Google LLC Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"] Page title: Lace Wallet™ Secure Crypto Storage | Safe & Fast Web3 Access® HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR1 Expires: 2026-09-22 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4d824d023de01f229e601938edcdb7020802d167c0d85fac21c644cf194c9450 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wixstudio.com ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-06 20:05:45 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-14 08:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-07 00:01:01 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f389a-d714-70b8-95c3-547569a35555/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-06 20:15:28 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com, is currently under investigation for credential theft operations. Analysis indicates it may be designed to harvest login credentials by impersonating legitimate services, likely through fake authentication prompts or cloned web interfaces. The threat specifically targets users who interact with browser extensions or web applications, redirecting them to fraudulent pages that mimic trusted platforms to steal usernames, passwords, and session tokens. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolves to IP address 34.144.206.118 and is hosted on a platform that provides SSL certificates via Let's Encrypt. Despite its active status, the domain has not yet been flagged by any of the 95 security engines on VirusTotal (0/95 detections). The domain is registered under Wix Studio, a legitimate website builder, but the subdomain appears to have been created for malicious purposes. No blocklist entries or historical abuse reports were found at the time of this analysis, though the Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100 further indicates potential risk. Users who have visited connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com or entered credentials on any page associated with this domain should immediately revoke any active sessions, change passwords for all accounts accessed from the same device, and enable multi-factor authentication where available. Monitor financial and email accounts for unauthorized activity, as stolen credentials may be used for follow-up attacks. If browser extensions were installed from this domain, remove them immediately and scan the system for malware using updated security tools. Network administrators should consider blocking the domain and its resolving IP (34.144.206.118) at the firewall or DNS level to prevent further exposure. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - Public blocklists: now listed on 1 feed - VirusTotal detections: now 2/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: f4feb61d53bc0de67557513853fa54f1 TLS cert SHA-256: 4d824d023de01f229e601938edcdb7020802d167c0d85fac21c644cf194c9450 ## 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/connect-lacextension.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=connect-lacextension.wixstudio.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
