Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, darkmattermarketlinks.com, is flagged as a high-risk generic phishing site targeting users of the DarkMatter Market, a known darknet marketplace. The site impersonates official DarkMatter Market resources, presenting itself as a secure guide for accessing the marketplace. Analysis indicates the presence of phishing infrastructure designed to harvest credentials or distribute malicious payloads, though no specific crypto drainer kit signatures have been confirmed at this time. The page title, 'DarkMatter Market | Official Links & Secure Market Guide,' reinforces the impersonation tactic by leveraging trusted branding to deceive visitors. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain was registered on January 06, 2026, through NAMECHEAP INC, a registrar frequently associated with phishing and abuse. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which may host additional malicious domains. As of this assessment, the domain is detected by 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating limited but present detection coverage. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common choice for both legitimate and malicious sites due to its accessibility. No Google Safe Browsing (GSB) flags or blocklist entries were identified at the time of analysis, suggesting the campaign remains under the radar of broader detection systems. The domain remains active, posing an ongoing risk to users seeking access to DarkMatter Market. The low detection rate (1/95) and absence of blocklist entries highlight the campaign's evasion tactics, increasing the likelihood of successful compromise. Response actions should include immediate reporting to the registrar (NAMECHEAP INC) for suspension, as well as submission to additional security vendors to improve detection coverage. Users are advised to verify domain authenticity through official DarkMatter Market communication channels and avoid interacting with unsolicited links or guides. The high risk level is justified by the domain's active status, targeted impersonation, and potential for credential theft or malware distribution. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260627-CA621A Favicon MD5: 34314f6d90be5425c96a294b11b02d69 TLS cert SHA-256: 48cadb113b9ca4a0e9cfcefb10fd59538e5105a1870f85a6fd3501f042539598 ## 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/darkmattermarketlinks.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=darkmattermarketlinks.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.
