# PhishDestroy threat dossier — hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-20 17:56:01 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 70/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 5/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, CRDF, Gridinsoft, Webroot ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 34.144.206.118 (US, Kansas City) ASN: AS396982 Google LLC Hosting org: Google Cloud Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"] Registered: 2026-05-04 Page title: 404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-07-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wixstudio.com ## 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: 2026-05-04 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-04 19:39:58 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-16 11:37:15 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-05 01:52:06 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019df3db-a4e5-755a-ad19-4bc9b9cab225/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-04 19:40:56 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com as a cryptocurrency drainer domain actively masquerading as a Wix-hosted service, targeting users with deceptive asset-draining tactics. This domain employs a crypto drainer kit designed to intercept and siphon funds from unsuspecting cryptocurrency wallet connections. The fraudulent site leverages Wix’s legitimate infrastructure (WixStudio) to lend an air of credibility, exploiting users’ trust in the brand to facilitate unauthorized cryptocurrency transactions. Technical analysis confirms the domain is part of a growing trend where threat actors abuse legitimate website builders to host malicious scripts that silently drain wallets upon user interaction. This domain was flagged with a VirusTotal detection score of 0/95, indicating no immediate antivirus or security vendor flags at the time of analysis. The domain resolves to IP address 34.144.206.118, which is associated with Google Cloud hosting. The SSL certificate in use is issued by Let’s Encrypt, a common choice among both legitimate and malicious sites due to its ease of acquisition. The creation date of this domain remains undocumented in public records, suggesting recent registration to evade historical scrutiny. Google Safe Browsing (GSB) has not yet blacklisted the domain, and public blocklist aggregators show no current listings, highlighting a window of opportunity for threat actors to operate undetected. The current status of hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com is classified as active, with ongoing risk potential due to the lack of vendor detection and absence from blocklists. Immediate action is required to mitigate exposure: users should avoid interacting with the site, refrain from connecting cryptocurrency wallets, and report the domain to security platforms (e.g., VirusTotal, GSB) to increase visibility. The remaining risk is assessed as high due to the domain’s active status, low detection score, and the evolving nature of crypto drainer toolkits. Proactive monitoring and user education are critical to prevent financial losses, as this domain exemplifies the sophisticated tactics employed by modern cybercriminals to exploit trust in legitimate platforms. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 5/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 7204850560e39efe1510bdf38e09b2da TLS cert SHA-256: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4 ## 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/hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hard-desktop-en.wixstudio.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.
