# PhishDestroy threat dossier — defimarketiq.io ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-14 00:54:52 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/defimarketiq.io/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Drainer ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.21.19 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NAMECHEAP INC Nameservers: mitch.ns.cloudflare.com, norah.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-07-06 Expires: 2027-07-06 Page title: DeFiMarketCap | Trusted Insights into Crypto, DeFi & Digital Finance HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-10-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 7854c09a210c9166adafc8b553241de01b25ef2f91ac428bf20975c517a9108a ## 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: 2026-07-06 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-06 14:20:19 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-14 00:20:46 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f375e-038a-72e2-8867-5b7315b14427/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/defimarketiq.io crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.defimarketiq.io Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=defimarketiq.io AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/defimarketiq.io URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/defimarketiq.io/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-06 15:01:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain defimarketiq.io is currently identified as a crypto drainer, a specific threat type targeting individuals involved in cryptocurrency transactions. This domain is actively under investigation due to its potential involvement in fraudulent activities that aim to drain cryptocurrency funds from unsuspecting users. The site is still operational, posing an ongoing threat to its targets. The domain was registered through NAMECHEAP INC and resolves to the IP address 172.67.195.250. Notably, the domain creation date is listed as July 06, 2026, which may indicate an error or deliberate manipulation of registration data to evade detection. As of the latest analysis, the domain has not been flagged by any of the 95 vendors on VirusTotal, showing 0 detections. This lack of detection suggests that the domain may still be in the early stages of deployment or employs advanced evasion techniques to bypass existing security measures. Given that defimarketiq.io remains active and undetected by major security platforms, it is crucial for users to exercise caution. It is recommended to avoid interacting with the domain or entering any personal or financial information. Security teams should monitor this domain closely and consider implementing additional protective measures such as IP blocking or enhanced scrutiny of crypto-related communications. Continuous vigilance and updated threat intelligence are essential to mitigate the risks associated with this active threat. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: cada179351fda2e185fb62c40ec03195 TLS cert SHA-256: 7854c09a210c9166adafc8b553241de01b25ef2f91ac428bf20975c517a9108a ## 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/defimarketiq.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=defimarketiq.io 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.
