Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: Go Daddy, LLC Nameservers: amos.ns.cloudflare.com, keira.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-04-03 HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-07-03 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 8501750ee4a80a844e4913422d713ef4f5d0e2f78a65c319f7bcf0dfce2a5152 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: pending notification queue. No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-03 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-03 16:13:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-03 13:14:13 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-21 16:07:10 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable 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/019d5379-31b7-708a-8007-a1cb11b074f8/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/afa5984d-8c24-493a-bba5-cb26df84fe21 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/dex-lighter.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.dex-lighter.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=dex-lighter.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/dex-lighter.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/dex-lighter.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-03 16:13:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies dex-lighter.xyz as a generic phishing domain posing as a cryptocurrency tool to steal wallet credentials and private keys. This fake application surface is actively luring users by pretending to provide tools for liquidity or swapping, while in reality it harvests sensitive data entered into its fraudulent forms. Users who interact with this domain risk permanent loss of digital assets and identity theft. This domain was flagged after VirusTotal returned 0 detections across 95 engines as of today, indicating low antivirus coverage despite clear malicious intent. The domain was registered on August 09, 2025 through Go Daddy, LLC, and already appears on 2 security blocklists. It uses a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, which does not imply legitimacy, and resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3, a server associated with widespread credential theft operations. Both MetaMask and SEAL security layers have already blocked access to this domain, confirming its dangerous nature. If you visited dex-lighter.xyz, do not enter any passwords, seed phrases, private keys, or wallet recovery phrases. Immediately disconnect from the site, clear browser cache and cookies, and run a full antivirus scan. If you entered any sensitive data, assume your wallet has been compromised; transfer remaining assets to a newly created wallet using a trusted device and revoke all connections to compromised addresses via blockchain explorers. Monitor your transaction history daily and report any unauthorized transfers to your wallet provider. Never reuse passwords or recovery phrases across services. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260403-53E119 Favicon MD5: ae26b2eb67689eadc421ff21732eb190 TLS cert SHA-256: 8501750ee4a80a844e4913422d713ef4f5d0e2f78a65c319f7bcf0dfce2a5152 ## 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/dex-lighter.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=dex-lighter.xyz 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.
