# PhishDestroy threat dossier — homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 16:27:47 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 91/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 10/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Sophos ## 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: 2026-04-20 Page title: 404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-06-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 79b690ec6aae60ba0de52d269638de0a570e5a2c2e467d8b649454d39b9edaab 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: 2026-04-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-20 14:26:05 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-22 13:41:06 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-20 17:24:05 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019daaa2-ad01-75e4-9b1f-8151f49b627e/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-20 14:26:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com as an active crypto drainer scam posing as a legitimate service to trick users into approving malicious cryptocurrency transactions. This domain leverages WixStudio's trusted infrastructure to host fraudulent pages that harvest wallet approvals and drain digital assets under the guise of 'getting started' or 'homepage setup'. The threat is particularly dangerous for users who interact with cryptocurrency platforms, as the site may prompt wallet connections and simulate transaction approvals without proper scrutiny. This domain was specifically designed to exploit trust in well-known hosting platforms like Wix to facilitate unauthorized asset transfers, making it a high-risk crypto-specific phishing vector that operates outside traditional credential theft frameworks. The evidence supporting the classification of homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com as a crypto drainer includes technical indicators such as its SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt (validating HTTPS but not legitimacy), resolution to IP 34.144.206.118, and zero detections across 95 VirusTotal scanners. The domain appears to be newly registered or recently deployed, consistent with the tactics of short-lived crypto drainer campaigns. Though the domain itself is hosted on WixStudio—a reputable platform—the misused subdomain and page content are engineered to mimic legitimate setup pages (e.g., for wallets or dApps), pushing users toward wallet connection prompts that authorize malicious smart contract interactions. The absence of antivirus detection suggests either a very new deployment or evasion techniques targeting behavioral analysis engines. Users who visited homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com should immediately revoke any wallet approvals connected to this site, clear browser data, and scan their devices using reputable security software. Do not interact with wallet connection prompts or transaction requests from this domain. If you connected your wallet or approved any transactions, check your wallet’s active approvals (using tools like revoke.cash or Tenderly) and revoke unknown or suspicious contracts. Report the domain to your browser’s safe browsing tools and consider reporting it to local cybercrime units or platforms like Google Safe Browsing. Always verify the authenticity of 'get started' or 'setup' pages by cross-checking URLs via official channels before clicking or connecting wallets. Stay alert: crypto drainers often imitate legitimate project launch pages and exploit urgency or newness to bypass user judgment. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 79b690ec6aae60ba0de52d269638de0a570e5a2c2e467d8b649454d39b9edaab ## 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/homepag-e-startin.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=homepag-e-startin.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.
