Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies a live phishing campaign targeting cryptocurrency users via the domain expllore-thorswap-finance-free.pages.dev, which falsely mimics ThorSwap Finance to deceive victims. This domain is actively distributing a generic drainer kit designed to siphon funds from unsuspecting users under the guise of a 'free' promotional offer. The campaign leverages a spoofed pages.dev subdomain to lend false legitimacy, while the underlying infrastructure is controlled by malicious actors aiming to harvest private keys or initiate unauthorized transactions from victims' wallets. Threat analysts have documented the following indicators for this domain: it exhibits a VirusTotal detection score of 0/95 detections as of the latest scan, indicating it has not yet been flagged by security vendors, despite active malicious activity. The domain was registered through Cloudflare, Inc., a common tactic to obfuscate true ownership, and is currently resolving to IP address 188.114.96.3. The SSL certificate, issued by Google Trust Services, further enhances its appearance of legitimacy, potentially tricking users into believing the connection is secure. Notably, this infrastructure has not yet been widely blacklisted, increasing the risk of exposure for unsuspecting users. The domain remains active and is classified as under investigation, with no immediate blocklist or takedown action recorded at this time. Users are strongly advised to avoid accessing this domain and to block the associated IP address (188.114.96.3) at the network perimeter. Cryptocurrency users, in particular, should verify the authenticity of any 'free' or promotional offers by cross-referencing official communication channels and conducting due diligence before interacting with wallet-related domains. While the immediate risk is high given the lack of vendor detections, proactive blocking and user awareness are critical to mitigating potential financial loss. Further updates will be provided as the investigation progresses and additional indicators are uncovered via seed 9da470. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 0f98b704c93538fcb68377c679051b5a TLS cert SHA-256: 37e724262f16be1b0a63f09e8a6657c6cf6d8eba317abb8c81f012b2a9969f4d ## 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/expllore-thorswap-finance-free.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=expllore-thorswap-finance-free.pages.dev 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.
