# PhishDestroy threat dossier — curbe.finance ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-06 22:56:49 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/curbe.finance/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: curve (and: discord, telegram, twitter, youtube) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, SOCRadar URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists Google Safe Browsing: FLAGGED Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 84.32.84.32 (LT, Vilnius) ASN: ASAS47583 Hostinger International Limited Hosting org: AS47583 Hostinger International Limited Registrar: HOSTINGER operations, UAB Nameservers: ns1.dns-parking.com, ns2.dns-parking.com Registered: 2026-02-21 Expires: 2027-01-19 Page title: Swap - Curve ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-01-22 01:53:57 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-06-02 17:20:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-02 00:00:39 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/019be365-df80-75ec-ab69-9d84e801587d/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/83669cad-d1cf-4c5d-991f-e8de37164b92 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/curbe.finance crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.curbe.finance Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=curbe.finance AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/curbe.finance URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/curbe.finance/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:33:29 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies curbe.finance as a medium-risk brand impersonation domain targeting users of the Curve platform. The site mimicked Curve’s branding, including the page title "Swap - Curve," to deceive visitors into trusting the fraudulent platform. This phishing attempt aimed to harvest sensitive credentials or financial information by exploiting Curve’s reputation. The domain curbe.finance was registered on February 21, 2026, through HOSTINGER operations, UAB, and resolved to the IP address 84.32.84.32. It was flagged by Google Safe Browsing for social engineering and appeared on two security blocklists. VirusTotal detected suspicious activity with 3 out of 95 security vendors flagging it. These indicators confirm the domain’s malicious intent within the threat infrastructure. Currently, curbe.finance is offline, mitigating immediate risk. Users are advised to remain vigilant against similar homoglyph or brand spoofing domains and verify URLs before submitting credentials. PhishDestroy recommends organizations monitor brand mentions and educate users on recognizing Curve impersonations to prevent credential theft and financial fraud. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260122-69F3E2 ## 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/curbe.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=curbe.finance 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.
