# PhishDestroy threat dossier — eth-mk3.vip ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-14 11:43:04 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/eth-mk3.vip/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- CRITICAL THREAT — DO NOT VISIT Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: MetaMask ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-30 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-30 13:27:15 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-14 10:18:15 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019dddec-4a43-76bf-a92a-908830f980d2/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/eth-mk3.vip crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.eth-mk3.vip Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=eth-mk3.vip AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/eth-mk3.vip URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/eth-mk3.vip/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-30 13:28:12 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies eth-mk3.vip as an active Ethereum wallet credential theft domain designed to harvest private keys and seed phrases from unsuspecting users. The domain masquerades as a legitimate MetaMask interface, luring victims to input sensitive account credentials into a fraudulent web form. This attack vector aligns with known crypto-drainer kits that automate fund extraction once credentials are captured. This domain was flagged by 1 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3. Registered through NameSilo, LLC on January 10, 2026, it uses a Google Trust Services SSL certificate to appear legitimate. eth-mk3.vip appears on 2 security blocklists and is actively blocked by MetaMask and SEAL. The domain exhibits elevated risk due to its recent creation, active hosting, and SSL-backed impersonation strategy. As of the latest assessment, eth-mk3.vip remains active and accessible. Immediate blocklisting via MetaMask and SEAL has mitigated widespread exposure, but users accessing the domain directly or via unfiltered links remain at risk. To ensure safety, do not interact with any page requesting wallet credentials on eth-mk3.vip. Close all browser tabs pointing to this domain and clear cache. Enable hardware wallet authentication and use transaction simulation tools to detect unauthorized fund movements. Remaining risk persists for users with active sessions on this domain or those who previously entered credentials; revoke access immediately via official MetaMask or wallet interface. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 0f98b704c93538fcb68377c679051b5a TLS cert SHA-256: 6864c6a88a98d5400ea33b41611c74b2d56965d95b133ada96e79dd12dd1dc32 ## 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/eth-mk3.vip/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=eth-mk3.vip 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.
