No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-18 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-18 14:53:11 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-05-18 11:53:48 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-31 10:46:15 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-18 23:44:20 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e3aed-6663-74ea-a1fd-e7ed58425a35/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/21853031-f3fd-4381-8483-2e081be1016c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/intro-uphold.created.app crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.intro-uphold.created.app Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=intro-uphold.created.app AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/intro-uphold.created.app URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/intro-uphold.created.app/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-18 14:54:00 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies intro-uphold.created.app as an active social engineering phishing site under investigation. This deceptive domain mimics legitimate financial services to trick users into revealing login credentials or payment details. The page is designed to exploit trust in the 'Uphold' brand, a known fintech platform, by presenting fake login forms or transaction alerts that harvest sensitive data. Users who interact with this site risk immediate financial loss, credential theft, or malware installation through malicious downloads. The domain was registered to impersonate Uphold’s official services, making it a critical threat for customers of digital payment platforms. This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy after Google Safe Browsing categorized it under 'SOCIAL_ENGINEERING' due to its fraudulent content. Security scans via VirusTotal show 0 detections out of 95 engines, indicating it has evaded most automated defenses—likely due to its recent creation. The site operates behind a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, which may falsely imply legitimacy to users checking for the padlock icon. It resolves to IP 216.150.1.193, a hosting provider often abused by fraudulent services. While the exact creation date is undetermined, its active status and lack of detections suggest it is a newly deployed threat designed to bypass initial screening. If you visited intro-uphold.created.app, immediately cease all interactions and avoid entering any credentials or personal information. Scan your device with updated antivirus software to check for infections. Report the domain to your bank or payment provider if you shared financial details. PhishDestroy advises blocking the IP 216.150.1.193 at your network level to prevent further access. Share this alert with others to prevent wider victimization. Stay vigilant: always verify URLs against official sources before clicking or logging in. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260518-88FF50 TLS cert SHA-256: 927656e07b11c1b9142869c6a6c1996526993b64fd76d6b8ad10c405cebaa0f8 ## 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/intro-uphold.created.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=intro-uphold.created.app 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.
