# PhishDestroy threat dossier — momentum.airdropsalert.bar ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-30 22:25:42 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/momentum.airdropsalert.bar/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: airdrop_scam Targeted brand: binance (and: bitget, coinbase, coinbase wallet, ethereum, instagram) Wallet drainer: Angel Drainer ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 17/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, ChainPatrol, BitDefender, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Google Safebrowsing, Kaspersky, Lionic, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot URLQuery: 100 detections Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.96.3 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Dynadot LLC Nameservers: brenna.ns.cloudflare.com, hassan.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2025-10-20 Expires: 2026-10-20 Page title: momentum Airdrop | Airdrop Alert ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2025-10-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-11-13 16:37:55 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-22 03:22:15 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-23 03:15:03 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019a7e14-45bd-740d-8cac-bccfb9523d17/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/momentum.airdropsalert.bar crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.momentum.airdropsalert.bar Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=momentum.airdropsalert.bar AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/momentum.airdropsalert.bar URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/momentum.airdropsalert.bar/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 00:58:30 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies momentum.airdropsalert.bar as a high-risk crypto drainer domain leveraging deceptive airdrop themes to steal cryptocurrency assets. This domain mimics legitimate airdrop platforms to lure victims into exposing private keys or wallet credentials, leading to unauthorized fund drains. Users should exercise extreme caution and avoid any engagement with the site. The domain was registered through Dynadot LLC on October 20, 2025, and resolved to the IP address 188.114.96.3. It was found hosting the Angel Drainer kit, a known crypto theft toolkit, and has appeared on two prominent security blocklists. VirusTotal analysis revealed that 17 out of 95 security vendors detected malicious activity linked to this domain, highlighting its confirmed threat status. Currently, momentum.airdropsalert.bar is offline, reducing immediate risk. However, due to its sophisticated crypto stealing infrastructure, users must remain vigilant for potential reappearances or similar threats. It is recommended to maintain updated security software, avoid suspicious airdrop offers, and verify cryptocurrency-related communications through trusted sources. ## 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/momentum.airdropsalert.bar/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=momentum.airdropsalert.bar 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.
