# PhishDestroy threat dossier — defi-wallets.icu ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-22 21:51:05 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/defi-wallets.icu/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker Public blocklists: listed on 7 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.64.1 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Web Commerce Communications Ltd Nameservers: ["ns100.webnic.cc", "ns101.webnic.cc"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Just a moment... ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: WE1 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: 2026-02-26 23:24:46 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-02-26 23:24:46 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-22 20:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-09 21:54:54 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/0198f6f7-e52a-76d4-bc07-b39c9e6142c6/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/defi-wallets.icu crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.defi-wallets.icu Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=defi-wallets.icu AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/defi-wallets.icu URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/defi-wallets.icu/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 16:30:32 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies defi-wallets.icu as a suspicious domain classified under crypto drainer threats. This classification suggests the domain was potentially designed to illicitly capture cryptocurrency wallet credentials or drain digital assets. Despite the threat type, defi-wallets.icu is assessed with a low risk level, indicating limited exposure or impact compared to more aggressive crypto scams. Technical analysis reveals that defi-wallets.icu was registered through a dead domain registrar and first created on February 21, 2026. The domain has been flagged on multiple security blocklists, indicating prior detection by threat intelligence sources. VirusTotal reports minimal detection with only 2 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain, which supports the low risk assessment. These indicators suggest a limited campaign or early-stage operation rather than a widespread threat infrastructure. Currently, defi-wallets.icu is offline and no longer accessible, which reduces any immediate risk to users. The domain's removal from active status demonstrates an effective response, either by registrar enforcement or proactive takedown measures. Users are advised to remain cautious of similar domain patterns and to avoid interacting with unknown crypto-related websites to maintain digital asset security. ## 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/defi-wallets.icu/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=defi-wallets.icu 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.
