# PhishDestroy threat dossier — monstersmint.fun
================================================================

Fetched:   2026-04-23 10:10:10 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/monstersmint.fun/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 89/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: cryptocurrency
Targeted brand: telegram (and: tiktok, twitter)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      1/95 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Gridinsoft
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      188.114.96.3 (US, San Francisco)
ASN:             ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US
Hosting org:     AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
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.

## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-02-26 23:19:39 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-04-13 01:45:03 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-24 00:56:20 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies monstersmint.fun as a low-risk crypto drainer domain that was designed to steal cryptocurrency-related data from unsuspecting users. Although the risk level is low and the domain is currently offline, it once posed a threat by attempting to drain users’ crypto wallets or credentials, potentially causing financial loss or exposure of sensitive information.

This phishing domain operated by masquerading as a legitimate service, likely prompting users to enter private keys or wallet credentials under false pretenses. Its use of the Cloudflare “Attention Required” page suggests an attempt to evade detection or filter legitimate traffic before executing the crypto draining scheme. The domain was registered through NameSilo and appeared on at least one security blocklist, confirming its malicious intent. VirusTotal scans flagged it by only one vendor, reflecting the relatively low detection rate but still indicating a threat.

If you have visited monstersmint.fun, it is crucial to immediately review your cryptocurrency wallets and accounts for unusual activity. Change any compromised credentials and enable multi-factor authentication where possible. Avoid revisiting the domain, as it is now offline, but remain vigilant for similar phishing attempts. Users should also run a comprehensive malware scan on their devices to ensure no additional threats remain.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       2995f574bf6e000af01a37b4b3a94707
TLS cert SHA-256:      8f1421013e36050f7f53aac9852c598aa77e436edc3be34a00918593d57c5dcf

## 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.
