No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-20 15:14:46 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-22 13:06:25 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-21 19:13:05 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019daacd-d635-75b8-93fb-c1a99fc740f7/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/macs-store.app crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.macs-store.app Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=macs-store.app AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/macs-store.app URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/macs-store.app/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-20 15:15:43 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-store.app as an active brand impersonation scam masquerading as a legitimate Apple Store website to harvest user credentials and drain cryptocurrency wallets. This domain leverages Apple’s branding to trick victims into entering sensitive information or connecting fraudulent cryptocurrency drainer scripts under the guise of purchasing Apple products. No known drainer kit signatures were publicly available at the time of analysis, but the site’s structure and SSL certificate suggest a high-fidelity replica targeting Apple users specifically. This domain was flagged with 0/95 detections on VirusTotal, indicating a low initial detection rate despite active abuse. It was registered through Sav.com, LLC on April 01, 2026, and resolves to IP address 194.163.176.233. The domain is currently flagged by Google Safe Browsing under the “SOCIAL_ENGINEERING” classification and appears on 1 security blocklist. The SSL certificate, issued by Let’s Encrypt, adds superficial legitimacy, further enabling deception. As of this report, macs-store.app remains active and unblocked by most AV vendors, posing a moderate but evolving risk to unsuspecting users. PhishDestroy confirms that InversionDNS has already blocked access to this domain. Users are strongly advised not to visit or interact with macs-store.app. Block this domain at network and endpoint levels, and avoid sharing any personal or financial data. Remaining risk includes continued operation, potential spread via phishing campaigns, and delayed detection due to low initial AV coverage. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 16/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 2b65e508bcf0f45adb530edb12b636ee6d4291265f26846678e30d564e057a37 ## 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-store.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=macs-store.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.
