No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-01-17 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-21 06:40:21 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-04-21 03:43:47 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-21 08:01:25 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019dae1e-0377-73a0-8d1a-75d265ca9804/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/352061e4-6fe5-4d8e-8345-1adcaf1fe784 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/globmerchantb.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.globmerchantb.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=globmerchantb.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/globmerchantb.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/globmerchantb.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-21 06:40:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies globmerchantb.com as an active crypto-draining phishing domain first observed on January 17, 2026. This site impersonates a generic merchant gateway to trick users into connecting crypto wallets and signing malicious transactions. Security telemetry indicates the page loads a drainer kit that automatically requests wallet approvals and transfers tokens to attacker-controlled addresses once the user grants permissions. This domain was flagged by 10 of 95 VirusTotal engines, giving it an elevated risk score. It resolves to IP 198.251.81.49, is registered through Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com, and holds a valid Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. The unusually recent creation date of January 17, 2026 suggests rapid domain cycling typical of drainer campaigns. The domain remains live and accessible at the time of this assessment. Users should never connect wallets or enter credentials on globmerchantb.com. Immediate actions include blocking the domain at the network level, reporting to PhishDestroy for global takedown, and sharing indicators with crypto wallet providers. Despite a low Google Safe Browsing status and limited historical blocklists, the presence of an active drainer kit sustains an elevated risk level until the domain is fully sinkholed or taken offline. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 10/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260421-2A2B9F Favicon MD5: 6323e640ff50f1e13ff23c119918c7f2 TLS cert SHA-256: c2a4682c65d3ea6a1511e5776067f18980542d391976dadcf67794e192defe4b ## 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/globmerchantb.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=globmerchantb.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.
