# PhishDestroy threat dossier — fintech-assets.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-14 21:41:14 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/fintech-assets.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 91/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 10/92 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CRDF, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Netcraft, Sophos ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 198.251.84.200 (LU, Luxembourg) ASN: AS53667 FranTech Solutions Hosting org: FranTech Solutions 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. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/namesilo-killed-our-twitter https://phishdestroy.io/xmrwallet-namesilo-exposed Nameservers: ["ns5.asurahosting.com", "ns6.asurahosting.com"] Registered: 2026-05-13 Page title: Fintech-assets - Home ## 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: 2026-05-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-13 20:41:32 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-14 19:40:04 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-13 20:42:06 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e226c-140b-7020-9c1b-2ad1f4ed1a68/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/fintech-assets.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.fintech-assets.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=fintech-assets.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/fintech-assets.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/fintech-assets.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-13 20:42:34 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies fintech-assets.com as a credential theft domain that was taken offline after security vendors raised red flags. This domain poses an elevated risk due to its deceptive design, which impersonates legitimate fintech services to harvest user credentials. Visitors risk account takeovers, unauthorized transactions, or identity theft if they entered login details. The domain resolved to IP 198.251.84.200 and operated under a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, adding a false sense of legitimacy. However, its recent creation date of July 12, 2025, and registration through NameSilo, LLC, should have raised immediate suspicion for security-conscious users. Security analysis reveals this domain was flagged by only 2 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, highlighting how newer or less sophisticated threats often slip through initial scans. The low detection rate underscores the importance of proactive monitoring and user vigilance, especially for domains claiming affiliation with financial services. Technical indicators such as the IP address and SSL certificate provide actionable clues for network defenders to block or investigate further. While the domain is now offline, remnants of its infrastructure may persist, and attackers could revive similar campaigns under new domains. If you visited fintech-assets.com and entered any credentials, immediately change passwords for the affected accounts and enable multi-factor authentication. Scan your devices for malware using reputable antivirus tools and monitor financial accounts for unauthorized activity. Report the incident to your organization's security team or relevant financial institutions if you suspect credential compromise. Stay alert to unsolicited communications referencing this domain, as threat actors may combine stolen data with social engineering tactics for follow-on attacks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: a2efd8da487b5368674b29f50dc0101a ## 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/fintech-assets.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fintech-assets.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.
