HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-04-22 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4da6277b1a6f54b72523d8687941f0c9b91491f66a4793ad1c5d374cd3e5b172 ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-19 06:21:53 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-31 01:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-24 03:00:33 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c7489-271d-7709-86ac-e6bd45582d30/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/87e19095-b929-49da-8e80-101a8c0f7c8c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/fintechtrust.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.fintechtrust.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=fintechtrust.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/fintechtrust.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/fintechtrust.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 01:22:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies fintechtrust.info as a high-risk phishing domain targeting users interested in digital banking services. The site presents itself as a fintech platform aimed at innovating and simplifying banking, but its primary threat lies in attempting to deceive visitors into divulging sensitive financial data. This domain has been flagged due to suspicious activity and its association with generic phishing tactics, posing significant risks to unsuspecting users. The domain fintechtrust.info was registered recently on February 21, 2026, through OwnRegistrar, Inc., an often scrutinized registrar for malicious registrations. It resolves to the IP address 37.27.227.98 and has been detected on one security blocklist. VirusTotal analysis reveals that 14 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain, reinforcing its malicious reputation. The Gridinsoft trust score is at zero, indicating an extremely low level of trustworthiness. These technical indicators align with common phishing infrastructure patterns aimed at exploiting user trust in financial services. Currently, fintechtrust.info is taken offline, which reduces immediate risk but does not eliminate potential harm from prior exposure. Users are strongly advised not to engage with this domain or provide any personal or banking information if encountered. Organizations should consider blocking this domain within their network environments to prevent phishing attempts. Continuous monitoring is recommended, as phishing actors often reestablish presence through similar domains or IP addresses. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260219-9CE72D Favicon SHA-256: 53f7eaccc5cabff8999753b23d2e2aab91a4fa445707494f4ce0d0af103fa211 TLS cert SHA-256: 4da6277b1a6f54b72523d8687941f0c9b91491f66a4793ad1c5d374cd3e5b172 ## 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/fintechtrust.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fintechtrust.info 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.
