Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies honeyswap.net as an active crypto drainer phishing domain currently engaged in malicious activity. This domain is specifically designed to impersonate the legitimate HoneySwap decentralized exchange (DEX), tricking users into connecting their cryptocurrency wallets and authorizing fraudulent transactions. The threat actor behind this campaign leverages the trusted reputation of HoneySwap to lure victims into draining their digital assets. As of the latest assessment, the domain remains operational and poses an elevated risk to users interacting with it. This domain was flagged by 16 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating significant malicious activity. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, which does not inherently validate the legitimacy of the website. The domain honeyswap.net is registered with Namecheap, Inc., and resolves to an IP address that has not been disclosed in this report for security reasons. The domain was created on March 1, 2021, and is currently blocked by MetaMask and SEAL security systems. Additionally, it appears on 2 prominent security blocklists, further corroborating its malicious nature. The domain's age, combined with its active malicious operations, underscores the sophistication of this threat actor. The current status of honeyswap.net is active, with ongoing efforts to deceive cryptocurrency users. Given the domain's specific threat as a crypto drainer and its active status, users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with this domain under all circumstances. If you have recently visited this domain or entered any credentials, immediately revoke any wallet connections and transfer remaining assets to a secure wallet. Use trusted security tools such as MetaMask's phishing detection or SEAL to block access to this domain. Always verify the authenticity of URLs and use bookmarked links for legitimate platforms like HoneySwap. Regularly monitor wallet activity for unauthorized transactions and report any suspicious activity to relevant authorities or security platforms. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1777395937-honeyswap.net TLS cert SHA-256: 40d437bde216427be74a19362432b4e5a74987e2ea4d9ed06a68de88449e33d3 ## 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/honeyswap.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=honeyswap.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.
