Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies an active phishing campaign hosted at pay-for-usdt-trc20-000236.pages.dev impersonating a legitimate USDT (Tether) TRC20 token giveaway site. This domain masquerades as an offer where users can supposedly earn TRC20 USDT by completing simple tasks, a common tactic used to harvest cryptocurrency wallet credentials and initiate fraudulent transfers. The threat actor leverages social engineering to convince victims of the legitimacy of the offer, often luring them with promises of high returns with minimal effort. This approach preys on the growing popularity of decentralized finance and the trust placed in cryptocurrency-related platforms. This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy with a unique seed identifier c3369c. It currently shows 0/95 detections on VirusTotal, indicating it remains undetected by most antivirus engines as of the latest scan. The domain is registered through Cloudflare, Inc., and resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, which may be leveraged to appear more trustworthy to potential victims. Given its active status and the use of Cloudflare's infrastructure, this domain poses a significant risk to users interacting with it, especially those unfamiliar with the tactics used in cryptocurrency-related phishing. Users who visited pay-for-usdt-trc20-000236.pages.dev should immediately cease any interaction with the site and avoid entering any cryptocurrency wallet credentials or personal information. It is strongly recommended to scan local devices for malware using updated antivirus software, as the site may attempt to deliver malicious payloads. Additionally, users should revoke any permissions granted to the site and monitor their cryptocurrency wallets for unauthorized transactions. If credentials were entered, users should transfer any remaining funds to a new wallet and consider the original wallet compromised. Reporting the domain to relevant authorities or threat intelligence platforms can help prevent further victimization. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 844062b7cf85b4e4261ef8bf00511031f213e327d758e230b4652cb0413b1be1 ## 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/pay-for-usdt-trc20-000236.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pay-for-usdt-trc20-000236.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.
