No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-30 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-30 21:54:12 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-03 01:40:07 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ddfbc-fd57-7466-a545-9c3b3f091e5e/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/nav-mexc-exch.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.nav-mexc-exch.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=nav-mexc-exch.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/nav-mexc-exch.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/nav-mexc-exch.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-30 21:54:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies nav-mexc-exch.pages.dev as an active brand impersonation site targeting MEXC, a major cryptocurrency exchange. The domain leverages the Cloudflare Pages platform to host a fraudulent interface designed to deceive users into connecting wallets or entering credentials, likely executing a crypto drainer payload. The malicious nature was confirmed through behavioral analysis, matching known impersonation tactics where threat actors replicate legitimate exchange domains to harvest digital assets or credentials. No specific drainer kit fingerprint was disclosed in initial analysis, but the site's structure aligns with automated phishing toolkits targeting crypto users. This domain resolves to IP address 172.66.45.6 and is registered through Cloudflare, Inc., leveraging Google Trust Services for SSL certification. VirusTotal currently shows 0 detections out of 95 engines as of the latest scan, indicating low signature-based detection at this time. The registrar is Cloudflare, Inc., and the certificate authority is Google Trust Services. While the exact creation date is not provided, the domain remains active and unblocked by major blocklists. No known inclusion in Google Safe Browsing (GSB) or other threat intelligence feeds has been confirmed at this stage. The combination of fresh registration, zero AV detection, and active hosting suggests a recently deployed threat with potentially high evasion capabilities. As of this report, the domain remains active and under investigation, with PhishDestroy tracking its status as 'active' and risk level as 'under_investigation'. Immediate response actions include user advisories to avoid interacting with the domain and reporting to MEXC for takedown coordination. Despite zero current detections, the lack of historical data and high-risk characteristics such as brand impersonation and crypto targeting warrant elevated caution. Remaining risk includes the potential escalation of detection evasion as the campaign matures, highlighting the need for proactive monitoring and rapid response coordination with hosting providers and security vendors. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - WHOIS creation date: 2026-04-30 ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 849db554bbefa6fe0cec73cc3d6b2a76ff853c842dece5a8b0ff15de5a604356 ## 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/nav-mexc-exch.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=nav-mexc-exch.pages.dev 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.
