# PhishDestroy threat dossier — maximumprofitstrade.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-01 03:04:09 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/maximumprofitstrade.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 45/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/91 security vendors flagged this domain Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 198.251.88.188 (US, Cheyenne) ASN: ASAS53667 PONYNET - FranTech Solutions, US Hosting org: AS53667 FranTech Solutions Registrar: Global Domain Group LLC Nameservers: ns7.asurahosting.com, ns7.my-control-panel.com, ns8.asurahosting.com, ns8.my-control-panel.com Registered: 2026-03-01 Expires: 2027-03-01 Page title: Home ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-03-01 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-26 20:37:46 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-26 18:39:56 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-01 04:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-26 20:38:05 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0538-583f-728c-91a3-fe5e976a7e0d/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/6cd46427-2f03-4a97-b456-64ef28c06489 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/maximumprofitstrade.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.maximumprofitstrade.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=maximumprofitstrade.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/maximumprofitstrade.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/maximumprofitstrade.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 20:55:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, maximumprofitstrade.com, is flagged as a generic phishing threat targeting users of cryptocurrency trading platforms. Analysis indicates no specific brand impersonation or known drainer kit association at this time, though the domain structure and naming convention suggest an intent to mimic legitimate trading services. The threat likely aims to harvest login credentials, API keys, or personal financial information from victims under the guise of a high-yield investment opportunity. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain was registered through Global Domain Group LLC on March 01, 2026, an unusually future-dated creation that may indicate bulk registration or evasion tactics. It resolves to the IP address 198.251.88.188, which currently hosts no other flagged domains in public threat feeds. VirusTotal reports 0/95 detections, indicating no antivirus engines have flagged the domain as malicious at the time of analysis. The domain uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, providing a false sense of security to visitors. Google Safe Browsing and other blocklists show no active listings, with a total blocklist count of zero across monitored sources. As of the latest verification, maximumprofitstrade.com has been taken offline, likely due to registrar enforcement or hosting provider intervention. No active phishing pages or malicious content were accessible during the investigation. However, the domain remains registered and could be reactivated or repurposed. The risk level is classified as under investigation due to the lack of historical malicious activity and the future-dated registration. Users are advised to monitor financial accounts for unauthorized transactions and report any suspicious correspondence linking to this domain. Network administrators should consider blocking the IP 198.251.88.188 and implementing DNS-level filtering for the domain to prevent potential future exploitation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260626-42F270 Favicon MD5: e5dc7d2f20b13dc50e45efca43313507 ## 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/maximumprofitstrade.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=maximumprofitstrade.com 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.
