Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies dopemex.com as a live brand impersonation scam targeting MEXC cryptocurrency exchange users. The domain was registered on May 12, 2026 through Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com, employing a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. No drainer kit artifacts were observed in initial analysis, though the site functions as a credential-stealing landing page mimicking MEXC's official interface. Technical analysis reveals this domain resolves to IP 104.21.20.210 and has triggered 9/95 detections on VirusTotal. The domain remains unblocked by Google Safe Browsing (GSB: CLEAN) but is flagged by multiple security vendors. Additional risk factors include recent domain creation (less than 30 days old) and hosting on infrastructure previously associated with cryptocurrency scams. This domain is currently ACTIVE and poses an elevated risk to cryptocurrency traders. Users should immediately block access to dopemex.com and verify all bookmarks point to mexc.com. The remaining risk is significant due to active impersonation tactics and lack of widespread blocking. MEXC users are advised to enable 2FA and verify all URLs before entering credentials. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260519-C74700 Favicon MD5: d8974a8bbb2f33885c5817e66c24e72b ## 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/dopemex.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=dopemex.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.
