Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies foavex.com as an active phishing domain engineered to impersonate Aave, a leading decentralized finance protocol. The site deceives visitors by closely mimicking Aave’s official branding and user interface to harvest wallet credentials and private keys. Threat actors often leverage impersonation of reputable DeFi platforms to trick users into connecting wallets or entering seed phrases, enabling immediate theft of digital assets. This domain was flagged under seed 1232f8 and is currently under investigation, indicating evolving threat actor behavior that may expand targeting beyond Aave users. This domain poses significant risk due to several technical indicators. foavex.com resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3 and was registered on October 29, 2025 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. The domain currently shows 0/95 detections on VirusTotal, indicating it has evaded most security engines. Additionally, it uses a Google Trust Services SSL certificate to appear legitimate. Given its recent creation and low detection rate, users are strongly advised to treat this domain with extreme caution and avoid any interaction. If you have visited foavex.com, immediately disconnect any connected wallets and revoke any unauthorized permissions via your wallet interface or a reputable blockchain explorer. Do not enter any private keys, seed phrases, or personal information. Clear your browser cache and run a full scan using updated antivirus software. Report the domain to your antivirus provider and consider using browser-based phishing protection tools. Always verify URLs through official channels before entering sensitive data and use hardware wallets for enhanced security when interacting with DeFi platforms. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260505-8EC882 Favicon MD5: c3d9e7ac8ad834ae3d129c8c7a595a4f TLS cert SHA-256: 9f3e51e919d64ef40d98c54fa71709682ac1a5223330c4bf78dfd353c9722a24 ## 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/foavex.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=foavex.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.
