Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies crustwallet.com as a medium-risk crypto drainer domain aimed at stealing cryptocurrency assets. The threat involves illicit wallet draining tactics targeting users. Supporting intelligence shows crustwallet.com was flagged in one AlienVault OTX pulse and appears on two security blocklists. The domain resolved to IP 74.208.236.165 and was registered through IONOS SE in late 2025. VirusTotal detected 7 out of 95 vendors flagging the domain, while Scamadviser and Gridinsoft trust scores remain extremely low. Currently, crustwallet.com is taken offline, greatly reducing immediate risk. Users should avoid interacting with this domain or related links. Continued monitoring and blocking through security platforms is advised to prevent potential crypto asset loss. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 2ea693b5d192951b4a5e457e74ba2c9d TLS cert SHA-256: d297ab8cb9c3ca9ee6ccd002ff98478934ead05dc60e97ded51fe915c4575fa5 ## 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/crustwallet.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=crustwallet.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.
