Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified io-etherfi.pages.dev as a high-risk brand impersonation threat specifically targeting users of the ether.fi protocol with a fraudulent airdrop scam. This domain is currently active and presents a significant danger to cryptocurrency holders who may be lured by promises of free ETHFI tokens. The site's page title, "ether.fi Airdrop » Claim ETHFI tokens," is designed to deceive visitors into connecting their wallets or sharing sensitive information, ultimately leading to asset theft. Technical analysis reveals that io-etherfi.pages.dev was registered on June 13, 2026, through Cloudflare, Inc., a common registrar for both legitimate and malicious sites. The domain resolves to IP address 172.66.47.197 and is protected by an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), which gives it a false sense of security. Alarmingly, only 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flag this domain as malicious, indicating a low detection rate that allows it to bypass many automated defenses. Additionally, it appears on one security blocklist, suggesting limited but existing recognition of its threat. The domain's creation date in the future (2026) is a red flag, likely indicating manipulated WHOIS data. To protect against this airdrop scam, users should never connect their cryptocurrency wallets or enter private keys on the site. Always verify official airdrop announcements through the genuine ether.fi website or official social media channels. Organizations should block access to this domain at the network level and add it to threat intelligence feeds. PhishDestroy recommends reporting the domain to hosting providers and registrars for takedown, and monitoring for similar domains using the unique seed b64be5 to identify related threats. Staying vigilant and educating users about common phishing lures like fake airdrops remains the best defense against such attacks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: aab9da48bedfef684251e23d6995740b11a079547022b22b0f56bc28a983a858 ## 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/io-etherfi.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=io-etherfi.pages.dev 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.
