No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-30 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-30 20:04:50 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-02 19:40:13 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ddf54-651e-7268-aa73-adad6a4855cf/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/macs-drift-protocol.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.macs-drift-protocol.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=macs-drift-protocol.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/macs-drift-protocol.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/macs-drift-protocol.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-30 20:09:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies macs-drift-protocol.pages.dev as a live crypto drainer site impersonating the Drift protocol. The domain leverages a deceptive page title referencing high-speed DeFi on Solana to lure cryptocurrency users into interacting with malicious content. Analysis confirms active hosting under Cloudflare's infrastructure, with Domain Name System (DNS) resolution to IP 188.114.96.3. This campaign represents a direct threat to users seeking legitimate Solana-based DeFi protocols and requires immediate intervention to prevent asset loss. Technical indicators reveal this domain was registered via Cloudflare, Inc., and resolves to a Google Trust Services SSL certificate. VirusTotal currently detects this domain with 0 detections out of 95 security vendors, indicating a low detection rate despite its malicious nature. The page title, "How Drift Protocol Is Powering High-Speed DeFi on Solana," is designed to exploit user trust in the Drift brand, a well-known decentralized exchange (DEX) and derivatives trading platform on Solana. The domain's low VirusTotal score underscores the need for proactive threat intelligence sharing to enhance early detection before broader compromise occurs. The current status of macs-drift-protocol.pages.dev remains active as of the latest investigation, with no indications of takedown or mitigation. Given the domain's use of a crypto drainer mechanism—likely embedded in the hosted content—users visiting the site risk unauthorized cryptocurrency transfers or wallet compromise. Concrete recommendations include immediate network-level blocking of the domain and associated IP (188.114.96.3), user awareness campaigns highlighting the misuse of the Drift brand, and submission of this domain to threat intelligence platforms and browser warning systems. Additionally, organizations should inspect DNS logs for queries to this domain and scan endpoints for associated malicious artifacts to prevent lateral spread or further exposure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: f5ce50d154909077a11c24810cd2c6dcd2ca0ed31de7dec9b3c6568112e227be ## 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/macs-drift-protocol.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=macs-drift-protocol.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.
