Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain metamask-docs-hkw44y70z-consensys-ddffed67.vercel.app impersonates MetaMask, a popular cryptocurrency wallet service. It is currently active and has been flagged as malicious by 12 out of 91 vendors on VirusTotal. This phishing domain is hosted by Vercel Inc. and uses an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services / WR1. The domain aims to deceive users by mimicking MetaMask's legitimate documentation interface. It likely attempts to harvest sensitive information such as seed phrases, private keys, or login credentials. The use of a reputable SSL issuer like Google Trust Services may give users a false sense of security, making the phishing attempt more convincing. PhishDestroy first detected this domain on June 22, 2026, highlighting its recent emergence as a threat. The relatively high number of VirusTotal detections suggests that the domain has been active long enough to attract attention from multiple security vendors. However, its presence on a reputable platform like Vercel Inc. underscores the ongoing challenge of phishing sites leveraging legitimate services to appear credible. Users interacting with MetaMask or similar cryptocurrency services should remain cautious and verify URLs before entering sensitive information. This case exemplifies how phishing domains can exploit trusted platforms and SSL certificates to deceive users, emphasizing the need for continuous vigilance in the digital landscape. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 3dd78bbbeec1d7a93ca533ce53ee15e8 TLS cert SHA-256: f832dfb2653761e8b0001dbaf84eab20667c9bfb0520700547d3b3bf548143aa ## 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/metamask-docs-hkw44y70z-consensys-ddffed67.vercel.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=metamask-docs-hkw44y70z-consensys-ddffed67.vercel.app 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.
