No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## 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: 2026-02-13 00:58:57 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-23 20:20:24 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-24 18:00:47 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners 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/019c53dc-01cb-76fd-a32f-bd76451edca3/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/curvev.finance crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.curvev.finance Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=curvev.finance AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/curvev.finance URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/curvev.finance/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 15:36:42 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain curvev.finance presents an elevated risk due to confirmed brand impersonation targeting Curve. While currently offline, this impersonation attempt was designed to deceive users by mimicking the legitimate Curve platform. Security analysis reveals this domain was registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited on February 21, 2026, resolving to IP address 172.67.147.30. VirusTotal shows 2 out of 95 security vendors flagged this domain, and it appears on 1 security blocklist. The domain utilized technologies including HSTS, Cloudflare Browser Insights, Cloudflare, and HTTP/3. PhishDestroy has blocked this domain, contributing to its current offline status. To mitigate brand impersonation threats, users should verify official Curve domains through trusted sources and avoid interacting with suspicious links. Organizations should implement domain monitoring for brand variations and educate users about impersonation tactics. Security teams should maintain blocklists with domains like curvev.finance and report similar findings to threat intelligence platforms. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: f3418a443e7d841097c714d69ec4bcb8 TLS cert SHA-256: c34d2f43043c6e636f379f27af3c158c8a34eaeb8c7464abf0a6134edeea4b90 ## 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/curvev.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=curvev.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.
