Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] cryptonest.trade – High‑Risk Generic Phishing Domain This domain is flagged as a high‑risk generic phishing site. The registration record shows the domain cryptonest.trade was created on 19 December 2025 and is hosted by Spaceship, Inc. The authoritative nameservers are launch1.spaceship.net and launch2.spaceship.net, and DNS resolution points to the IPv4 address 66.29.148.140. VirusTotal analysis shows that one of ninety‑one scanned security vendors flagged the domain, indicating at least one detection. The domain is listed on a single public blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy feed, confirming that at least one anti‑phishing service has observed malicious activity. The current operational status is reported as active, and the risk rating is high. Evidence beyond the registration and DNS data is limited. No public Safe Browsing, Open Threat Exchange, SSL certificate, HTTP response code, or page‑title information is available in the current intelligence set, leaving the exact content and payload of the site unverified. The lack of additional detections does not imply safety; the single vendor flag and inclusion on a blocklist are sufficient to warrant precautionary measures. Defenders should add cryptonest.trade to internal block and deny lists across perimeter firewalls, DNS filtering, and web proxy solutions. Continuous monitoring of the IP address 66.29.148.140 for any new connections or anomalous traffic is advised. Organizations using threat‑intelligence platforms should ingest the domain’s indicator and correlate any future alerts with the existing blocklist entry. Periodic re‑scans with multi‑engine services such as VirusTotal are recommended to detect any changes in the domain’s detection profile. If any user traffic is observed, endpoint isolation and forensic capture should be initiated to prevent credential harvesting or further compromise. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260727-EB177E Favicon MD5: 18a7cd87e9158cf2a9c457d73e1aef6f TLS cert SHA-256: 3232019872b148faf04af565f0540d205428642726626624f8d6059687e6f1b8 ## 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/cryptonest.trade/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cryptonest.trade 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.
