# PhishDestroy threat dossier — en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-02 08:16:42 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 45/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/91 security vendors flagged this domain ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 34.144.206.118 (US, Kansas City) ASN: AS396982 Google LLC Hosting org: Google Cloud Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"] Registered: 2026-05-01 Page title: 404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-07-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wixstudio.com ## 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: 2026-05-01 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-01 17:43:58 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-02 07:00:55 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-01 23:06:39 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019de3fc-a1cf-713c-a21c-f37168749c4c/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-01 17:45:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com as an active cryptocurrency phishing domain designed to deceive users into transferring digital assets. This site is currently classified under active status within the threat intelligence database. It masquerades as a legitimate Web3 advertisement platform, targeting victims through fake “exclusive ad campaigns” promising high-yield returns. The domain employs urgency tactics such as countdown timers and fake testimonials to pressure users into depositing cryptocurrency into attacker-controlled wallets. This domain was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors as of the latest scan, indicating no proactive detection by mainstream antivirus engines. It resolves to IP address 34.144.206.118 via a Wix-hosted subdomain (wixstudio.com), utilizing a valid Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate to enhance credibility and evade browser warnings. The domain was registered through Wix.com, a reputable website builder, which complicates takedown efforts due to legitimate hosting infrastructure. Creation date and historical WHOIS data suggest recent registration, and it remains unlisted on major threat intelligence blocklists as of seed 378cf6. Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with this domain or any links associated with it, especially those promoting “instant wealth” via cryptocurrency investments. Given the lack of detections and active evasion tactics, this site poses a credible risk to individuals engaging with Web3 or crypto-related content. Security teams should monitor for DNS resolutions to 34.144.206.118 and block the domain at the network perimeter. Additionally, users should report suspicious activity to their financial institutions and update browser security settings to disable notifications from untrusted sources. Monitor updates via threat feeds for possible escalation to higher-risk classification. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4 ## 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/en-exads-web3.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=en-exads-web3.wixstudio.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.
