# PhishDestroy threat dossier — fakeexodus.net ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-28 02:42:58 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/fakeexodus.net/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 89/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Exodus ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 45.151.91.170 (DE, Frankfurt am Main) ASN: ASAS209101 ipvendettainc IP Vendetta Inc., SC Hosting org: AS209101 IP Vendetta 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.

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: 2026-03-27 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-25 02:48:42 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-06-28 04:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-26 00:16:13 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019efc3f-6022-7202-9318-a189be3e8d37/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/fakeexodus.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.fakeexodus.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=fakeexodus.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/fakeexodus.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/fakeexodus.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 03:00:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Analysis of the domain FakeExodus.net indicates an active credential harvesting operation targeting users expecting legitimate software distribution. This site is designed to masquerade as a trusted source for the Exodus wallet or related cryptocurrency tools, luring victims into entering sensitive account credentials under false pretenses. Infrastructure analysis reveals a newly registered domain (March 27, 2026) with no detections across 95 antivirus engines (1/95 on VirusTotal), suggesting it remains under the radar of most detection mechanisms. This domain was registered through NameSilo, LLC, and resolves to a dedicated host at IP address 45.151.91.170. The lack of antivirus detection at the time of assessment (1/95) combined with its recent registration date indicates a high potential for successful compromise of unsuspecting users. The site is currently active and has not been flagged by public blocklists at the time of writing, increasing the risk of prolonged exposure and victimization. Given the absence of detection signals and the domain's alignment with common phishing tactics in the cryptocurrency space, the risk of credential theft or malware delivery is significant. Users who have accessed FakeExodus.net should immediately cease use of any login credentials entered on the site. It is strongly recommended to change passwords for any accounts potentially exposed, enable multi-factor authentication where available, and scan local devices for signs of compromise. Reporting the domain to your organization’s security team or relevant authorities is advised to aid in broader threat mitigation. Avoid reusing credentials across services, and verify the authenticity of software distribution channels through official and verified channels only. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 00212d8bab9e21caacb8e61886e92f1dfa304d8d1e1c9ce1f4e89ef06315d8ba ## 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/fakeexodus.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fakeexodus.net 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.
