# PhishDestroy threat dossier — hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-21 20:01:13 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing Targeted brand: MetaMask ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 18/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CyRadar, ESET, Emsisoft, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Kaspersky, LevelBlue, Lionic, MalwareURL, Netcraft, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.18.40.47 (US, San Francisco) Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Cloudflare, Inc Nameservers: dahlia.ns.cloudflare.com, hugh.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2014-03-30 Expires: 2031-03-30 Page title: MetaMask Login | Getting started with DeFi and Web3 ## 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: 2014-03-30 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-07 01:57:06 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-07 01:54:56 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-21 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-11 03:46:09 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e9f5a-9d39-7335-bdc5-149304bf2f68/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 16:40:02 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io is a high-risk brand impersonation site targeting MetaMask users. This fraudulent page poses as a legitimate MetaMask login portal, aiming to steal cryptocurrency wallet credentials and drain victims' funds. The site was created on March 30, 2014, and registered through Cloudflare, Inc, which may complicate takedown efforts. It appears on three security blocklists and has been flagged by 18 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating widespread recognition as malicious. Technical indicators further confirm the threat. The domain resolves to IP address 104.18.40.47 and is hosted behind Cloudflare's infrastructure. Its page title, "MetaMask Login | Getting started with DeFi and Web3," is designed to deceive users into believing they are accessing an official MetaMask resource. Google Safe Browsing likely blocks this domain, though the current status shows it has been taken offline. Despite being offline, the domain's association with a known brand impersonation campaign and its presence on multiple blocklists underscore its dangerous nature. PhishDestroy recommends that users who may have interacted with this domain immediately revoke any permissions granted to the site and transfer remaining funds to a new, secure wallet. Always verify the authenticity of MetaMask login pages by double-checking the URL and using official bookmarks. The domain's offline status reduces immediate risk, but similar phishing sites frequently reappear under new URLs. Users should remain vigilant and report any suspicious domains to security platforms like PhishDestroy to help protect the broader community. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 43cc67ce068ec3030d1755a250d06a34 ## 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/hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hellp-mtamaskhelp.gitbook.io 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.
