Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] piteas.live: Confirmed Crypto Drainer Phishing Site Analysis of piteas.live indicates a confirmed crypto drainer phishing site targeting users of decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregators on Pulsechain. The domain was registered on September 3, 2025, through Web Commerce Communications Limited and is currently active despite returning an HTTP 403 status. Infrastructure analysis reveals Cloudflare hosting (IP 188.114.96.3, Canada) with detected technologies including PHP and Cloudflare Browser Insights. The site's page title explicitly references 'Piteas - Dex Aggregator on Pulsechain,' aligning with the reported scam type of crypto drainer activity. Defenders should note that this domain appears on three security blocklists and is actively blocked by at least three major security providers. While VirusTotal shows 4 of 91 vendors flagging the domain, this partial detection rate does not diminish the confirmed malicious classification. AlienVault OTX records the domain in two threat intelligence pulses, further corroborating its malicious status. The SSL certificate (Google Trust Services / WE1) provides no inherent security assurance, as phishing domains commonly use valid certificates. Given the domain's registration age (10 months), consistent blocklist presence, and specific targeting of cryptocurrency users, defenders should treat piteas.live as high-risk infrastructure. Immediate blocking at DNS and proxy levels is recommended, with particular attention to wallet connection attempts from this domain. No legitimate Pulsechain DEX aggregator functionality is associated with this infrastructure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260610-DE2BE7 TLS cert SHA-256: 62f95cd421be25fbb2d48f3759bfb7be2228321f501b5f4627e6dda61adac3c1 ## 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/piteas.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=piteas.live 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.
