# PhishDestroy threat dossier — dydx.beefyhubs.monster ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-23 04:35:38 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/dydx.beefyhubs.monster/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 88/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: dYdX (and: google) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, CyRadar, Sophos, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 142.250.185.100 (US, Mountain View) ASN: ASAS15169 GOOGLE, US Hosting org: AS15169 Google LLC Registrar: Dynadot LLC Nameservers: brenna.ns.cloudflare.com, hassan.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2025-10-26 Expires: 2026-10-26 Page title: Google ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none 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: 2025-10-26 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-11-13 17:28:25 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-22 01:24:54 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-23 03:15:03 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019a7e42-7b38-72f8-b3d0-a183e376b916/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/dydx.beefyhubs.monster crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.dydx.beefyhubs.monster Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=dydx.beefyhubs.monster AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/dydx.beefyhubs.monster URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/dydx.beefyhubs.monster/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 02:51:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies dydx.beefyhubs.monster as a medium-risk phishing domain impersonating the dYdX brand. The domain was registered recently and mimics dYdX to deceive users, posing a risk of brand impersonation aimed at tricking individuals into divulging sensitive information. This phishing attempt works by creating a misleading domain that appears related to dYdX but redirects or resolves to unrelated IP addresses. The page title found was 'Google,' which might be an attempt to confuse users or evade detection. The domain appeared on multiple security blocklists and was flagged by several security services, indicating malicious intent. Fortunately, this domain is currently offline, reducing immediate risk. Users should remain vigilant when interacting with domains that resemble trusted brands, especially newly registered or suspicious URLs. Always verify URLs directly through official sources and avoid clicking unknown links. Reporting suspicious domains to security platforms helps protect the community from phishing threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: e8972ce34a4545b33c3926a20c306b71 ## 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/dydx.beefyhubs.monster/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=dydx.beefyhubs.monster 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.
