# PhishDestroy threat dossier — pancakfswap.finance ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-06 21:47:02 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pancakfswap.finance/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: PancakeSwap Wallet drainer: Angel Drainer ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Seclookup, Sophos URLQuery: 100 detections Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 217.114.42.78 (RU, Rostov-na-Donu) ASN: ASAS57724 DDOS-GUARD DDOS-GUARD LTD, RU Hosting org: AS57724 DDOS-GUARD LTD Registrar: OwnRegistrar, Inc. Nameservers: 1 Registered: 2025-07-03 Expires: 2026-06-24 Page title: PancakeSwap ## 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: 2025-07-03 (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: 2025-07-04 09:54:15 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-02 17:20:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 10:19:42 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/0197d179-21b8-742e-ae83-65aeedbefda5/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pancakfswap.finance crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pancakfswap.finance Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pancakfswap.finance AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pancakfswap.finance URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pancakfswap.finance/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 02:28:33 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies pancakfswap.finance as a medium-risk crypto drainer domain impersonating a generic cryptocurrency brand. This threat aimed to deceive users into compromising their digital assets by mimicking trusted crypto platforms. The domain was associated with the Angel Drainer kit, a known toolkit used for siphoning funds from victims' wallets. The domain pancakfswap.finance resolved to IP address 217.114.42.78 and was registered via OwnRegistrar, Inc. It appeared on four security blocklists and triggered alerts from three security vendors on VirusTotal. The domain was created on July 3, 2025, and used infrastructure typical of phishing operations targeting crypto users, leveraging the Angel Drainer malware to facilitate unauthorized fund transfers. Currently, pancakfswap.finance has been taken offline, mitigating immediate risk. However, users are advised to remain cautious of similar phishing attempts and verify URLs carefully before engaging with crypto services. Maintaining updated security software and enabling multi-factor authentication on wallets can further reduce exposure to such threats. ## 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/pancakfswap.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pancakfswap.finance 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.
