# PhishDestroy threat dossier — pitaes.org ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-07 00:58:53 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pitaes.org/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Drainer ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: CRDF, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.68.126 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: eNom, LLC Nameservers: ["fish.ns.cloudflare.com", "kaiser.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-05-20 Expires: 2027-05-20 Page title: Piteas — Optimal DEX Aggregator on PulseChain ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-18 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d6dd5c3e537007cabd7e05f734044f089accd4ea6b0ea54b34b99aff9fe5b435 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. 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: 2026-05-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-10 18:35:18 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-10 16:51:15 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-07 00:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-14 00:57:12 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019eb269-df07-754c-849c-ee2f893cd309/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/89e1758e-07d7-44a2-b95f-8b02332520fb Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pitaes.org crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pitaes.org Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pitaes.org AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pitaes.org URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pitaes.org/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 00:10:49 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain operates as a crypto drainer phishing site targeting users of the PulseChain ecosystem by impersonating Piteas, a legitimate decentralized exchange aggregator. The site is designed to trick visitors into connecting their cryptocurrency wallets, at which point malicious smart contracts execute unauthorized token transfers, draining funds without user consent. Analysis of the page content reveals authentic-looking PulseChain branding elements, transaction simulation interfaces, and wallet connection prompts commonly used in crypto drainer schemes. Infrastructure analysis provides multiple indicators of malicious activity. The domain was registered through eNom, LLC on May 20, 2026, with an anomalous future creation date suggesting potential registration data manipulation. VirusTotal detection shows 3 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while it appears on three separate security blocklists. The site resolves to IP address 104.21.68.126 and uses Cloudflare services, including Browser Insights and HTTP/3 protocol. Additional threat intelligence confirms the domain's presence in two AlienVault OTX pulses, with active blocking by multiple wallet security providers. Users who visited pitaes.org should immediately disconnect any connected wallets from the site and revoke all smart contract approvals through their wallet interface. It is critical to check wallet transaction history for unauthorized transfers, particularly those involving PulseChain or related tokens. Affected users should transfer remaining assets to a new wallet address and monitor for suspicious activity. The domain currently shows offline status, but similar crypto drainer operations frequently reappear under different domains. Users should verify all PulseChain-related services through official channels before connecting wallets or approving transactions. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260610-62620F Favicon MD5: bcaa505c43213b2f1984eff28c435741 TLS cert SHA-256: d6dd5c3e537007cabd7e05f734044f089accd4ea6b0ea54b34b99aff9fe5b435 ## 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/pitaes.org/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pitaes.org 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.
