PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2025-10-17 (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: 2025-10-25 02:20:01 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-17 14:45:38 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-12 02:44:19 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019a1929-8e28-77be-abe0-1b846e490aa9/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pepeheimer-claim.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pepeheimer-claim.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pepeheimer-claim.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pepeheimer-claim.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pepeheimer-claim.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 02:40:42 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies pepeheimer-claim.com as a high-risk phishing domain targeting cryptocurrency users under the guise of "Pepe Heimer - AI Yield Optimization." This domain impersonated a generic crypto brand promising lucrative presale opportunities, aiming to deceive victims into compromising their wallets. Despite its recent creation in October 2025, the domain quickly gained attention due to malicious activity related to crypto fund draining. Technical analysis reveals that pepeheimer-claim.com employed a Solana drainer kit designed to siphon cryptocurrency assets directly from victims' wallets. The domain resolved to IP address 162.55.90.94 and was registered through Cosmotown, Inc. It appeared on two security blocklists and was flagged by 14 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors. Additionally, AlienVault OTX reported it within one threat pulse, underscoring its active malicious use. The site’s deceptive branding and use of AI-related buzzwords aimed to lure crypto investors into a trap. Currently, pepeheimer-claim.com has been taken offline, reducing immediate risk to users. However, its prior activity highlights the ongoing dangers in the crypto phishing landscape. Users are urged to remain vigilant, avoid interacting with suspicious domains, and report any attempts of fraud. Continuous monitoring and proactive blocking remain essential to protect digital assets from similar emerging threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: e042b108d742bad17e9255a47c6ea63dee944186ebc7ea6a88aa5dbc179cb768 ## 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/pepeheimer-claim.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pepeheimer-claim.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.
