No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-28 16:51:39 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-28 13:53:57 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-30 00:59:54 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019dd45a-7c12-7747-840a-2fecf0b46785/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/696e225f-b96c-4917-9163-da2c75162303 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/openaidao.app crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.openaidao.app Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=openaidao.app AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/openaidao.app URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/openaidao.app/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-28 16:53:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies openaidao.app as an active crypto drainer phishing domain masquerading as a legitimate blockchain information portal titled Blockchain Technology and Its Impact on the Digital Economy. This domain, registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on April 27, 2026, currently resolves to IP address 104.21.77.108 and operates under a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. As of the latest analysis, the site remains unflagged by security vendors, with VirusTotal reporting zero detections out of 95 scanning engines. At this time, the domain has not been added to any major public blocklists, placing its current trust score near zero. Despite its low detection rate, the site’s active crypto-focused content and suspicious infrastructure suggest a high-risk, evolving threat. Security teams and users are strongly advised to block openaidao.app at the network and endpoint levels. Immediate investigation into related domains registered around the same time is recommended to identify potential campaign expansion. Users encountering this domain should avoid interaction and report the site through trusted phishing reporting platforms such as PhishDestroy. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260428-9AAFC0 Favicon MD5: 86eafe9dd962aa4d5e1d6acfdc54206a TLS cert SHA-256: 6ea4607bd35115d4be219843bc59283a8fdc54853e72c41ff2e206d2e9760928 ## 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/openaidao.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=openaidao.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.
