Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies eliteedgelegalservices.com as a low-risk brand impersonation domain targeting the Across brand. Although the threat level is considered low, such impersonations can mislead users into trusting fraudulent legal service sites, potentially exposing them to scams or data misuse. Vigilance remains important since brand impersonation can evolve into more harmful attacks. This domain was registered on July 8, 2025, through Atak Domain Bilgi Teknolojileri A.S. It resolved to IP address 198.12.66.123 and was flagged by only one security vendor out of 95 on VirusTotal, reflecting minimal detection at the time. The Gridinsoft trust score rated it at 0/100, indicating no trustworthy reputation. Importantly, eliteedgelegalservices.com has since been taken offline and appears on one security blocklist, reducing current risk. Users are advised to avoid visiting eliteedgelegalservices.com and remain cautious when encountering similar legal services domains claiming affiliation with Across. Always verify official brand websites directly and use trusted sources to confirm legitimacy. Employing updated security software and consulting resources like PhishDestroy can help protect against emerging impersonation threats. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: a8792d77c1090e47ba22ce632e764b1c1113da74d2049869f7a231408d4656cd TLS cert SHA-256: 52894dc8d995a12563f3947321abdfd8a5217f5e2ea74eff1c494870ed67dc14 ## 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/eliteedgelegalservices.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=eliteedgelegalservices.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.
