Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain frosttidalwave.shop has been assessed as posing an elevated risk due to its specific threat type of brand impersonation. The domain impersonates the brand Aave, a well-known decentralized finance (DeFi) platform, and is currently offline. Analysis indicates that the domain has been flagged by 4 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a moderate level of concern among the security community. The domain was created on June 12, 2026, and resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3. It appears on one security blocklist and has been included in 4 threat intelligence pulses on AlienVault OTX. The domain uses Google Trust Services for its SSL certificate, which may provide a false sense of security to unsuspecting users. The Gridinsoft trust score for this domain is 0 out of 100, indicating a complete lack of trustworthiness. The domain is currently blocked by PhishDestroy, further confirming its malicious nature. To mitigate the risk associated with this brand impersonation domain, users should be educated on the importance of verifying the URL and SSL certificate of websites they visit, particularly those related to financial transactions. Organizations should update their security policies to include this domain in their blocklists and monitor for any related activity. Additionally, network administrators should implement DNS filtering and web security solutions to prevent access to this and similar malicious domains. Regular security awareness training can help employees recognize and avoid such impersonation attempts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: c9969290d93dced25e7a0f6fadf98911 TLS cert SHA-256: 6ad3607067629e48ecc3eb394c912f487746548b47c344080fa2bc93290d8fb2 ## 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/frosttidalwave.shop/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=frosttidalwave.shop 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.
