# PhishDestroy threat dossier — connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 02:55:01 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 84/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Ledger ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 7/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, CyRadar, Fortinet, Seclookup, Webroot ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 163.61.188.7 (US, Staten Island) ASN: AS153568 NEW DHAKA HARDWARE Hosting org: MIT Registrar: TuringSign Inc. d/b/a Cosmotown Nameservers: ["dns1.lytehosting.com", "dns2.lytehosting.com", "dns3.lytehosting.com", "dns4.lytehosting.com"] Registered: 2026-04-21 Page title: Flare Network- EVM Hub for Web3.0 HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-07-20 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d9cb8b34fe617042b81204ac943a7817345622bc22ba996f2ba57bcec6b36783 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - www.connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-21 17:37:38 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-21 14:38:52 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-22 05:30:20 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 00:27:52 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/019db078-50b7-77e9-8e7b-d23db5def6a5/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/da9388f3-ebc9-4f87-ae7b-6a7981c7781c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-21 17:38:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com is a live crypto-drainer domain currently impersonating Flare Network’s EVM Hub for Web3.0 to harvest private keys and drain wallets. The site remains active as of the latest scan and continues to serve JavaScript payloads designed to intercept wallet connections and approve malicious transactions. PhishDestroy identifies this domain as a crypto drainer leveraging the Flare Network branding to trick users into approving unauthorized blockchain interactions. The site was registered on October 18, 2024, through TuringSign Inc. d/b/a Cosmotown and currently resolves to IP 163.61.188.7. Despite zero detections on VirusTotal (0/95 vendors as of latest scan), the domain employs a legitimate Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate to appear trustworthy. No known public blocklists currently include this domain, and its trust scores remain unverified due to its recent appearance. While the site shows low immediate detection coverage, the presence of a crypto-drainer payload and active hosting status indicates high potential for financial theft. Users are strongly advised to avoid visiting connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com, never connect wallets or sign transactions on this domain, and report any accidental interactions to their wallet provider immediately. Consider blocking the domain at the network level and updating browser-based security extensions to include emerging crypto-drainer signatures. If funds are compromised, file incident reports with local cybercrime units and relevant blockchain explorers. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 7/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260421-9A3D46 Favicon MD5: e253fa0da735215c3390bc01d029574c TLS cert SHA-256: d9cb8b34fe617042b81204ac943a7817345622bc22ba996f2ba57bcec6b36783 ## 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/connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=connect.quantumfinanceledgerx.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.
