PhishDestroy identifies dydx-airdrop.pages.dev as a domain that poses a brand impersonation threat, specifically targeting dYdX. This website attempts to deceive users into believing it is affiliated with the legitimate brand, which could lead to sensitive information being compromised.

 
This domain was flagged due to its registration through Cloudflare Pages, resolution to IP 172.66.45.7, and an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services. With 16 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagging this domain, it is clear that there is a significant concern. The exact count of security vendors flagging this domain highlights the severity of the threat.

 
If a user visited dydx-airdrop.pages.dev, they should immediately monitor their accounts for any suspicious activity and change their passwords as a precaution. Given the high risk level associated with this domain, it is crucial for users to be vigilant and take necessary steps to protect themselves from potential brand impersonation attacks, such as verifying the authenticity of websites before providing sensitive information, using unique and complex passwords, and enabling two-factor authentication whenever possible.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       98154942426e4398eed383387a2788e3
TLS cert SHA-256:      8c49008b772c7c1e3605874ad4535fd1bf3733ace703c5ebb4e6412304f7beab

## 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.
