Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies gerkuleseses.com as a medium-risk crypto drainer domain that has been taken offline but was previously active. The site’s page titled “Connect Page” indicates its role in fraudulent activity aimed at cryptocurrency holders. This domain was registered in late 2025 and was flagged by multiple security vendors and blocklists, underscoring its malicious intent. Users who engaged with the site were at risk of having their crypto wallets drained without consent. The phishing campaign leveraged the Angel Drainer kit, a known tool used to steal cryptocurrency by tricking victims into connecting their wallets through the fake “Connect Page.” Once connected, the kit executed unauthorized transactions, draining users’ digital assets. The domain resolved to IP 104.21.9.182 and was registered via NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. Though it is currently offline, the tactics used serve as a warning for similar threats. To protect themselves, users should avoid visiting gerkuleseses.com or clicking on any suspicious links related to this domain. Always verify the legitimacy of any wallet connection requests and use trusted wallet providers with strong security features. Reporting suspicious domains to security providers and keeping software up to date are critical steps in defending against crypto draining attacks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1769262456-gerkuleseses.co Favicon SHA-256: 950cf2daf1ed17579460975f2b3cb8d35205462d902a2b2797774dcc1e262105 TLS cert SHA-256: 2c2585aa7ea117257a2816fa4308b61a29685d465082a6c13b99e397c5d26f05 ## 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/gerkuleseses.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=gerkuleseses.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.
