# PhishDestroy threat dossier — gro24h-cryptoslate.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-30 10:18:45 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/gro24h-cryptoslate.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Investment Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 192.142.10.5 (NL, Amsterdam) ASN: AS214036 Ultahost, Inc.

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: 2026-06-26 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 12:03:30 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-28 10:12:30 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 12:09:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-28 18:18:02 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0dae-bcf9-74ee-aee1-fd85c604cb4f/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/96f09cdf-d7a4-4060-8ee3-2a814601a43e Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/gro24h-cryptoslate.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.gro24h-cryptoslate.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=gro24h-cryptoslate.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/gro24h-cryptoslate.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/gro24h-cryptoslate.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 12:06:05 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, gro24h-cryptoslate.com, is identified as a high-risk crypto investment scam designed to deceive users into believing it is a legitimate cryptocurrency news or investment platform. The site mimics the branding and content structure of established crypto media outlets, using fabricated news articles—such as a false $50 million funding announcement for a company called OmniPact—to lend credibility and lure victims into fraudulent investment schemes. Users who interact with the site may be prompted to connect wallets, share personal information, or transfer funds under false pretenses, leading to financial loss or identity theft. Analysis indicates this domain was registered on June 26, 2026, through Ultahost, Inc., a registrar commonly associated with newly created phishing infrastructure. Only 2 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal currently flag the domain as malicious, suggesting it is either newly deployed or employs evasion techniques to avoid detection. The site resolves to the IP address 192.142.10.5 and uses a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, which, while providing encryption, does not validate the legitimacy of the site’s content or operators. The combination of a recent registration date, low detection rate, and spoofed branding aligns with known tactics used in crypto-related phishing campaigns. If you have visited gro24h-cryptoslate.com or interacted with its content, immediate action is recommended. Disconnect any wallets or accounts linked to the site and revoke any permissions granted. Monitor financial accounts and cryptocurrency wallets for unauthorized transactions. Run a full scan of your device using updated security software to detect potential malware. Report the domain to relevant authorities or platforms, such as cryptocurrency exchanges or anti-phishing organizations, to help prevent further victimization. Exercise caution with unsolicited investment opportunities, especially those promoted through unfamiliar or recently created websites. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-D7BD21 Favicon MD5: 57d3fe3d4f9432e64009dc0181736ebb TLS cert SHA-256: 2b476988543497debed3d3259e2de8987fa9642881b7577815e89d469d3699c8 ## 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/gro24h-cryptoslate.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=gro24h-cryptoslate.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.
