# PhishDestroy threat dossier — h5.encryptglobal.net ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-25 18:32:04 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/h5.encryptglobal.net/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: MetaMask ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Fortinet Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 151.243.109.128 (NL, Kerkrade) Hosting org: AS209274 Kraken Network ISP LTD Registrar: Global Domain Group LLC Nameservers: ns1.globaldomaingroup.com, ns2.globaldomaingroup.com Registered: 2025-12-26 Expires: 2026-12-26 HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-08-22 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d8e58b8fa000bdbcaec42429d72751253445bb65e313d4f1303a7aef58b9a956 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - app.qtradeai.net ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. 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: 2025-12-26 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-18 17:35:25 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-18 15:43:35 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-25 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-20 00:02:52 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019edb5e-31ad-766d-bfef-5a76b90a6179/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/c8289b55-2542-4792-85b2-850337a605d5 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/h5.encryptglobal.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.h5.encryptglobal.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=h5.encryptglobal.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/h5.encryptglobal.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/h5.encryptglobal.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 16:29:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, h5.encryptglobal.net, is actively engaged in brand impersonation targeting MetaMask cryptocurrency wallet users. The infrastructure is designed to deceive users into entering sensitive credentials, including wallet seed phrases and private keys, by mimicking legitimate MetaMask authentication interfaces. The domain employs social engineering tactics, such as fake login prompts and urgent security alerts, to exploit user trust in the MetaMask brand. Given the high-value nature of cryptocurrency assets, successful compromise could result in immediate and irreversible financial loss for victims. Analysis indicates the domain was registered on December 26, 2025, through Global Domain Group LLC, and is hosted on IP address 151.243.109.128, located in the Netherlands under AS209274 (Kraken Network ISP LTD). The domain appears on three security blocklists, including PhishDestroy and SEAL, and is flagged by 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal. The SSL certificate, issued by Let's Encrypt (R12), provides encryption but does not validate legitimacy, as malicious actors commonly exploit free certificate authorities to lend false credibility to phishing sites. The domain remains active as of this report, with no takedown or sinkholing observed. Users who have interacted with h5.encryptglobal.net should immediately revoke any entered credentials, particularly MetaMask seed phrases or private keys. Affected wallets must be migrated to new, secure instances using a clean device to prevent persistent access by threat actors. Network-level blocking of 151.243.109.128 and monitoring for connections to h5.encryptglobal.net is recommended for enterprise environments. Victims should also review transaction histories for unauthorized transfers and report the incident to relevant cryptocurrency abuse platforms for further tracking. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260618-CBD4BF Favicon MD5: 011062a539df5ad26e9df298317ecc59 TLS cert SHA-256: d8e58b8fa000bdbcaec42429d72751253445bb65e313d4f1303a7aef58b9a956 ## 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/h5.encryptglobal.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=h5.encryptglobal.net 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.
