operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

pellrewardsclaim.sbs Phishing Intelligence Report - PhishDestroy

This report analyzes the domain pellrewardsclaim.sbs, which poses a cryptocurrency scam threat. The site's page title, "Unlock Your Pell Rewards: Claim Your Pell Network Dex Today!", indicates it attempts to impersonate the OKX brand. The threat is a fraudulent cryptocurrency scheme designed to deceive users into connecting wallets or providing credentials, leading to potential theft of digital assets.

Technical analysis confirms the malicious nature of this domain. VirusTotal shows 5 out of 95 security vendors flagged the site. It is blacklisted on 5 blocklists by alphaMountain.ai, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, G-Data, and Webroot. The domain was created on 2026-02-21, resolving to IP 2606:4700:3030::6815:2001, hosted in the United States by AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. The SSL certificate is identified as WE1.

The domain is currently DOWN/OFFLINE. The risk level is high, with a DOM risk score of 70 and a GridinSoft trust rating of 0 out of 100. Despite being offline, the domain's recent creation and clear impersonation of OKX represent a significant threat, with potential for reactivation.

## 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 (operator 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.
