# PhishDestroy threat dossier — metahash.live ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-26 04:31:24 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/metahash.live/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 68/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 195.250.26.22 (US, Buffalo) Hosting org: AS14670 WHG Hosting Services Ltd Registrar: HOSTINGER operations, UAB Nameservers: ns1.mysecurecloudhost.com, ns2.mysecurecloudhost.com, ns3.mysecurecloudhost.com, ns4.mysecurecloudhost.com Registered: 2026-04-11 Expires: 2027-04-11 Page title: Metahash | Trade Us ## 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: 2026-04-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-24 19:12:16 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-24 17:15:20 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-26 04:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-25 03:04:03 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019efa9c-5377-7129-a40c-122052826c10/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/eecc4c3c-ee1f-4495-9e8b-799ad28b746a Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/metahash.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.metahash.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=metahash.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/metahash.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/metahash.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 19:13:19 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is assessed at elevated risk level and classified as generic_phishing. Infrastructure and content indicators suggest impersonation-oriented fraud activity consistent with credential harvesting or deceptive trading portals. Telemetry data shows VirusTotal detection ratio of 2/95 security vendors. The domain metahash.live was registered through HOSTINGER operations, UAB and created April 11, 2026. It resolves to IP 195.250.26.22. The domain is currently marked offline / taken offline. It is blocked by PhishDestroy and appears on 1 security blocklist. Observed page title is 'Metahash | Trade Us'. Given the phishing classification, users should treat any historical or cached references to the domain as hostile. Recommended mitigations include blocking DNS resolution for metahash.live and associated IP 195.250.26.22, adding URL and IP-based indicators to enterprise web filters, and ensuring email or browser protections flag any legacy links. No credentials should be entered on any previously accessed pages. Incident response teams should correlate this IOC with proxy logs, endpoint telemetry, and authentication attempts to identify potential exposure. Because the domain is already offline, response efforts should prioritize retrospective impact analysis, including whether users interacted with the site prior to takedown, and enforcing credential resets where reuse may have occurred. Analysts should also incorporate passive DNS review to identify related infrastructure and potential cluster activity tied to HOSTINGER operations, UAB. Patterns of short-lived phishing infrastructure should be considered, including rapid registration-to-activation cycles followed by takedown after detection, even though current live exploitation is no longer possible. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260624-155093 Favicon MD5: 2f0e297081483a562fe130b693194a57 ## 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/metahash.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=metahash.live 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.
