## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
CRITICAL THREAT — DO NOT VISIT
Composite threat score: 94/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      13/95 security vendors flagged this domain

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      172.67.129.134 (CA, Toronto)
ASN:             AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Hosting org:     Cloudflare, Inc.
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-17 12:06:02 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies market-darknet.org as an active darknet market phishing site designed to steal login credentials and payment details from unsuspecting users seeking access to illegal marketplaces. The domain mimics legitimate darknet market portals to trick visitors into entering sensitive information, which is then harvested by threat actors for fraud or resale on underground forums. This site poses a direct financial and identity theft risk to anyone who interacts with it.

This domain was flagged by 13 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, registered on January 20, 2025, through NameSilo, LLC, and resolves to IP 172.67.129.134. The presence of a Google Trust Services SSL certificate does not validate the site’s legitimacy—malicious actors frequently abuse trusted issuers to lend false credibility to phishing pages. The combination of a recently registered domain, low detection rate at initial exposure, and hosting on a reputable IP space highlights the stealthy nature of this operation.

If you visited market-darknet.org, immediately cease any interaction and avoid entering personal or payment details. Run a full antivirus scan on your device to detect potential malware. Monitor your financial accounts and credit reports for unauthorized transactions or identity theft. Report the domain to your browser vendor or security provider to help block future access. For further protection, consider using a dedicated identity theft protection service and enabling multi-factor authentication on all critical accounts.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       eafac7c201e3491bbc17e5a71a5aa3c5
TLS cert SHA-256:      81879a7c272e3cb57772eeda370fd26537444d929637bb128eb0560bfdf9564d

## 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.
