Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] phantexts.info, a phishing domain, is currently offline but was previously flagged as malicious by 12 out of 91 VirusTotal vendors. The domain was hosted on IP 162.241.85.93 in the United States and registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. It was first detected by PhishDestroy on June 20, 2026, and carried a platform risk score of 100 out of 100, indicating a significant threat level. The domain was also listed on three public blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. This suggests that it was potentially targeting users of cryptocurrency platforms, given the involvement of MetaMask, a well-known cryptocurrency wallet provider. The SSL certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt, a common choice for both legitimate and malicious sites due to its ease of access and free service. Although the domain is now offline, its previous detection and blocklist status highlight the importance of timely threat identification. The high-risk score and multiple blocklist appearances underscore the domain's potential for harm. Phishing domains like phantexts.info exploit the critical window between registration and detection, aiming to deceive users before security measures can be fully implemented. This case exemplifies the dynamic nature of phishing threats and the necessity for continuous monitoring and rapid response. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260620-896FBD Favicon MD5: 695fd1f6d9b9e9f0b3b224dcab2453a2 TLS cert SHA-256: 12d8e7d0d6e87792ab98adbb7420ddd01cd861eb96cebe12145ffb8c5685762f ## 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/phantexts.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=phantexts.info 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.
