## Stored PhishDestroy analysis

Overview
PhishDestroy’s intake AI classified the page as malicious because it presented itself as an investment platform promising high returns, low spreads and copy‑trading, which are typical fraud tactics. The recorded page title read “APEX TRADE PRO: the online trading and investment platform”. The domain was first seen by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-23 and returned an HTTP 200 response on that date.

How the scam works
Fake investment sites lure visitors with exaggerated profit promises, low‑cost spreads and high leverage, then request deposits or wallet connections. After funds are transferred, the operators typically block withdrawals or disappear, leaving victims without recourse. The scheme relies on the appearance of legitimacy rather than any actual trading capability.

Evidence
VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-10-03 (retrieved 2026-10-23) with 92 engines and reported 0 malicious and 0 suspicious detections. Google Safe Browsing checked on 2026-10-23 and did not flag the URL. Two urlscan.io captures on 2026-10-23 show one clean verdict and another where machine‑learning engines flagged the page as malicious (score 48) but the overall verdict remained non‑malicious. Cloudflare Radar on 2026-10-23 labeled the URL as phishing and the domain as a scam. OTX listed 0 pulses on the same day. No external blocklists reported the domain, while PhishDestroy’s internal list marks it as malicious.

Infrastructure
The recorded IP was 198.251.89.229 and the hosting organization was identified as FranTech Solutions in Luxembourg. A Let’s Encrypt certificate covering apextradeproinc.com and its subdomains was issued on 2026-10-03 and expires on 2027-01-01. The domain was approximately 93 days old at the time of observation and had seven known subdomains. Nameservers were ns111.my-control-panel.com and ns112.my-control-panel.com, and DNSSEC was not enabled.

What to do
Users should avoid entering credentials, payment details or wallet information on this site; if any were submitted, change passwords immediately and treat any associated crypto wallets as compromised. Organizations should block i.apextradeproinc.com at the firewall or proxy, monitor DNS queries for the domain, and update threat feeds to include this exact hostname. Review access logs for connections to the recorded IP or subdomains and apply standard phishing response procedures.
