No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-07-22 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-24 17:32:48 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-29 04:25:15 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f94c1-a3da-735b-aa6b-4bc19263f175/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/core-helper.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.core-helper.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=core-helper.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/core-helper.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/core-helper.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-24 17:32:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] core-helper.com Generic Phishing Alert The domain core-helper.com was registered on July 22 2026 through Cloudflare, Inc. and is currently served by the Cloudflare nameservers alberto.ns.cloudflare.com and rayne.ns.cloudflare.com. DNS resolution points to the IP address 104.21.82.158, which belongs to Cloudflare’s global edge network. The domain remains active and appears on a single public security blocklist; it is also listed as blocked by the PhishDestroy feed. VirusTotal has processed the domain with 91 scanning engines, none of which returned a detection at the time of analysis. No additional intelligence such as page title, targeted brand, or malicious payload has been published, so the exact content hosted on the site cannot be confirmed. The available evidence therefore supports a classification of generic phishing, but the specific victim or brand being spoofed is unknown. Defenders should consider adding core‑helper.com to outbound filtering rules and DNS blocklists, especially for users who may be targeted by credential‑stealing campaigns. Continuous monitoring of the IP address 104.21.82.158 for anomalous traffic and periodic re‑scans on VirusTotal or similar platforms are recommended to capture any future changes in the domain’s behavior. Because the infrastructure relies on Cloudflare’s CDN, attribution to a single operator is difficult, and threat actors may switch front‑end services without altering the underlying domain. Until further forensic analysis of the hosted content is available, the domain should be treated as high‑risk for credential‑harvesting attempts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 653c24b261507a0f764236048a2f1edb2fb87ae153fbf2f9603fb77a94fdc5d5 ## 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/core-helper.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=core-helper.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.
