holditexodus.pages.dev — Brand Impersonation Phishing Campaign

This domain is actively impersonating the Exodus cryptocurrency wallet to propagate a crypto drainer under the guise of a savings program. The operation is classified as a brand impersonation attack due to its use of Exodus’s identity to deceive users into connecting wallets and authorizing malicious transactions. Current evidence confirms the site remains operational and accessible as of the latest network checks.

PhishDestroy identifies this domain as a high-risk impersonation platform. It was flagged by 1 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, resolving to IP address 188.114.96.3 via Cloudflare, Inc. registrar. The site appears on 2 security blocklists and has an SSL certificate issued by Let’s Encrypt. No public information currently indicates the domain’s creation date, but behavioral analysis suggests recent activation given its active status and low detection coverage.

Given the active status and confirmed malicious intent, users must avoid accessing or interacting with holditexodus.pages.dev. MetaMask and SEAL already block this domain, indicating compatibility with browser-based security tools. Recommendations include immediate blocklisting at network and endpoint levels, user education on verifying wallet addresses and domains, and avoidance of unofficial “Exodus” savings or promotion pages. All users should review wallet activity for unauthorized transactions and revoke any suspicious smart contract approvals. Monitor blocklists and threat feeds for updates as this campaign is likely evolving.

## 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.
