# PhishDestroy threat dossier — pankwekswap.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 12:17:20 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pankwekswap.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 10/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Kaspersky, Lionic, Sophos Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 2606:4700:3037::ac43:bbe0 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Registered: 2025-08-25 Expires: 2026-08-25 Page title: Account Suspended ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: WE1 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: 2025-08-25 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:23:33 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-22 09:39:33 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 08:39:31 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/0198f1fd-a9c4-701a-a0ed-5be49c1219a3/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pankwekswap.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pankwekswap.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pankwekswap.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pankwekswap.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pankwekswap.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 15:25:35 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies pankwekswap.com as a domain involved in generic phishing activities posing a high risk to users. The site was known to imitate legitimate services to deceive visitors into divulging sensitive information such as login credentials or financial data. Due to its malicious intent, the domain presented a significant threat to online safety and user privacy. The domain pankwekswap.com was registered with suspicious characteristics, notably through a dead domain registration provider, which is commonly associated with fraudulent activities. VirusTotal analysis flagged this domain by 10 security vendors, and it appears on three prominent security blocklists. These indicators underline its involvement in phishing schemes. The domain was created on February 21, 2026, and its infrastructure lacked transparency, further complicating trust and investigation. Currently, pankwekswap.com is offline and inaccessible, which reduces immediate user risk. However, users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with this domain or any related links. It is recommended to verify financial and login credentials for possible compromise if interaction occurred. Security solutions should maintain updated blocklists to prevent future exposure. Continuous vigilance is necessary as phishing actors often reemerge using alternative domains. ## 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/pankwekswap.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pankwekswap.com 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.
