Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] darkmatter-url.digital — Phishing Investigation This domain, darkmatter-url.digital, was registered on July 25 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is served by the Cloudflare nameservers adel.ns.cloudflare.com and javon.ns.cloudflare.com. The site presents a Google Trust Services‑issued SSL certificate (WE1) and resolves to the public address 104.21.5.82. Early detection activity shows that PhishDestroy has already added the domain to its blocklist, and the domain appears on one additional security blocklist. VirusTotal analysis reports that a single security vendor out of 91 flagged the domain, indicating that at least one detection engine observed malicious characteristics. No further public intelligence such as page titles, brand references, or sandbox behaviour has been published. The short age of the domain, combined with the presence of a legitimate‑looking TLS certificate and Cloudflare hosting, suggests an attempt to gain user trust while leveraging a fast‑changing infrastructure. Defenders should immediately block DNS resolution for darkmatter-url.digital and the associated IP 104.21.5.82 at perimeter and endpoint controls. Continuous monitoring of Cloudflare‑hosted IP ranges for new activity linked to this address is advised, as well as periodic re‑scanning on VirusTotal and other sandbox services to capture any evolving payloads. Organizations using URL filtering should add the domain to their deny list, and SOC teams should treat any inbound traffic to the domain as high‑risk until further forensic evidence clarifies the threat vector. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 590778db976e371b12f512d4ca0baaba TLS cert SHA-256: f92bc331c113765e8e5d2254bdb8dc80393e6a5d2ebd2f9e7b0ce83861cf9c82 ## 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/darkmatter-url.digital/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=darkmatter-url.digital 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.
