# PhishDestroy threat dossier — peradesktop.io ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-22 22:59:33 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/peradesktop.io/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 72/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, G-Data, Kaspersky, Sophos URLQuery: -1 detections AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 198.54.116.138 (US, Dallas) ASN: AS22612 Namecheap, Inc.

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: 2026-04-30 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-30 19:30:08 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-23 00:20:56 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-01 17:05:11 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 17:06:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] peradesktop.io: Confirmed Crypto Wallet Phishing Scam The domain peradesktop.io has been identified as a malicious phishing site specifically targeting Algorand cryptocurrency wallet users. This threat operates as a brand impersonation scam, masquerading as the legitimate Pera Algo Wallet to steal sensitive credentials and potentially drain victims' funds. The domain is currently offline, but its prior activity and infrastructure provide clear evidence of its malicious intent. Technical analysis reveals that peradesktop.io was created on April 30, 2026, and resolved to IP address 198.54.116.138. The site's SSL certificate was issued by Sectigo Limited under their Public Server Authentication CA. VirusTotal flagged the domain with 6 out of 95 security vendors marking it as malicious, and it appears on three separate security blocklists. AlienVault OTX also recorded one threat intelligence pulse associated with this domain. The page title displayed as "Pera Algo Wallet – Simply the best Algorand wallet," further confirming the impersonation of the legitimate Pera wallet brand. Given the elevated risk level and confirmed phishing activity, users must exercise extreme caution. PhishDestroy recommends that anyone who has interacted with peradesktop.io immediately change their Algorand wallet passwords and revoke any permissions granted to the site. Enable two-factor authentication on all crypto accounts and monitor for unauthorized transactions. The domain is now offline, but similar threats often reappear under new domains, so remain vigilant against unsolicited wallet-related prompts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 7a26df1db8cfdc0e57f021b89e1c8d36d0a53f61c318f41259d2948105336495 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/peradesktop.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=peradesktop.io 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
