# PhishDestroy threat dossier — metamask-center.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-28 11:45:30 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/metamask-center.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 82/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Drainer Targeted brand: MetaMask ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/91 security vendors flagged this domain Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 127.0.0.1 (--) 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.

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: 2026-07-25 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-27 09:52:26 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-28 12:20:28 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-27 12:58:41 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019fa28c-ba0d-756e-8d72-02b7ec05e1b3/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/metamask-center.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.metamask-center.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=metamask-center.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/metamask-center.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/metamask-center.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-27 09:55:42 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] metamask-center.com: Confirmed Crypto Drainer Site Analysis of metamask-center.com indicates a confirmed crypto drainer domain, registered on July 25, 2026, through NameSilo, LLC. The domain remains active as of July 27, 2026, and is currently resolving to 127.0.0.1, a non-routable IP address often associated with malicious infrastructure or sinkholing. Infrastructure analysis reveals Cloudflare nameservers (huxley.ns.cloudflare.com and shaz.ns.cloudflare.com), a common tactic to obscure hosting details and evade takedowns. The domain appears on two security blocklists, including PhishDestroy and SEAL, though no detections were recorded by the 91 vendors that scanned it on VirusTotal. The absence of detections does not confirm legitimacy, particularly given the domain's recent registration and association with crypto-related threats. The specific threat type, classified as a crypto drainer, suggests the domain is designed to interact with cryptocurrency wallets, likely to siphon funds or harvest credentials. No further details about the exact content or functionality of the site are available at this time, as the page has not been fully analyzed. Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk and consider blocking it at the DNS or network level. Monitoring for connections to 127.0.0.1 from internal systems may also indicate compromise or attempted exploitation. Given the domain's recent creation and active status, further investigation into its hosting and associated infrastructure is recommended. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 7c5e1aa1ed0482d2a202122f3cc8f8bc15b8422f8c159c68c0f475e8e865e16b ## 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 (operator 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/metamask-center.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=metamask-center.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
