Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies megaeth.finance as a dangerous phishing domain designed to drain cryptocurrency from unsuspecting users. This site masquerades as a legitimate NFT platform branded 'MegaETH | NFT,' targeting generic crypto enthusiasts with fraudulent intent. With multiple security vendors flagging the domain and its presence on several blocklists, it poses a significant threat to digital asset safety. The phishing operation leverages the Angel Drainer kit, a known toolset for crypto theft. Visitors are tricked into connecting their wallets and authorizing transactions, unknowingly giving attackers access to drain funds. The domain resolved to IP 198.18.6.237 before it was taken offline, preventing further exploitation but highlighting the need for vigilance. Users should never authorize wallet transactions from unverified sources or domains, especially those flagged by security services. Always confirm the authenticity of crypto platforms by checking official channels and domain registrations. If exposed, users are advised to immediately revoke wallet permissions and report any suspicious activity to their service providers. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1769262017-megaeth.finance Favicon SHA-256: 818ce5141c7f4bbd038842e48888c6234bba14625eb28afb87b15911543f20f2 TLS cert SHA-256: 118925f93bb99249568cda1010ab67a47cc1864040aff01f5e7981e9cd05471e ## 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/megaeth.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=megaeth.finance 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.
