Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] grok-82c.org Fake Grok Token Sale Alert This domain is flagged as a high-risk cryptocurrency phishing site targeting users of the Grok token ecosystem. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to impersonate an official token sale platform, offering fraudulent investment incentives such as a 200% bonus to lure victims. The specific threat type involves cryptocurrency fraud, leveraging social engineering tactics to exploit users seeking early investment opportunities in emerging digital assets. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain grok-82c.org was registered on May 22, 2026, through united-domains GmbH, an unusual future date suggesting potential domain spoofing or registry manipulation. It resolves to IP address 217.160.0.72, hosted in Germany under Ionos infrastructure. VirusTotal reports 1 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain, while PhishDestroy has explicitly blocked it. The SSL certificate is issued by Sectigo Limited under the Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36 chain, a common provider for both legitimate and malicious domains. The domain appears on one security blocklist, reinforcing its classification as active and high-risk. Mitigation steps for this cryptocurrency phishing threat include immediate domain blocking at the network perimeter and endpoint levels. Organizations should update security policies to flag or quarantine emails, advertisements, or social media links referencing grok-82c.org. Users should be educated on recognizing fraudulent token sale offers, particularly those promising unrealistic returns or bonuses. Cryptocurrency wallet providers and exchanges are advised to monitor transactions involving this domain and implement warnings for users attempting to interact with it. Verification of token sale legitimacy should be conducted exclusively through official project channels, and any unsolicited investment opportunities should be treated as high-risk. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: a181c7bdb5a4d878ad124484a01afba2e5b3c210dccf73e5a0faf01c32ac41e9 ## 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 (operator 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/grok-82c.org/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=grok-82c.org 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
