Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] metaeth-tge.com has been flagged for active fake MetaEth token phishing activity and is currently under investigation by domain safety analysts. The domain mimics legitimate MetaEth token platforms to deceive users into connecting wallets or entering private keys. This is a high-risk threat vector due to the irreversible nature of cryptocurrency theft and the irreversible loss of digital assets once credentials are exposed. PhishDestroy identifies this domain as posing a SPECIFIC fake token phishing threat targeting MetaEth ecosystem participants. This domain shows zero detections on VirusTotal (0/95), was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3, and was created on April 27, 2026. The domain utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which does not guarantee legitimacy despite standard encryption practices. No blocklist entries or trust score improvements have been recorded to date, indicating a newly active and unvetted domain. Users must treat metaeth-tge.com as HIGH RISK and avoid any interaction including clicking links, visiting the site, or entering any credentials or wallet information. Block the domain at DNS/network level and report to relevant blocklists. If exposure occurred, immediately revoke wallet approvals and transfer assets to a new wallet. Monitor transaction history for unauthorized transfers. Always verify token websites through official MetaEth channels and use hardware wallets for critical operations. This is a rapidly evolving threat with active deception tactics expected to escalate. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - Public blocklists: now listed on 2 feeds - VirusTotal detections: now 3/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260501-982166 Favicon MD5: bf57820134b35af7f4f02e9f1ba7cff8 TLS cert SHA-256: bf26ea7bdbd46006bac2bcac5cfb49e259553490b046357378923c6e72c502c2 ## 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/metaeth-tge.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=metaeth-tge.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.
