Nameservers: ["lisa.ns.cloudflare.com", "vicky.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2025-07-12 Expires: 2026-07-12 Page title: Picsart MOD APK Download V28.9.6 Premium ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-05 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d71ca05620a652f2af19d731ee2abdb1ce65374d56d8d6cce8eb7cbe6625a45a ## 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: 2025-07-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-09 17:28:51 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-10 18:17:04 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-24 16:20:40 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/019eb2bc-0869-7037-9157-882c5c8c584a/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/d2e89831-08b4-436e-9275-18a778765b8c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pixartapk.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pixartapk.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pixartapk.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pixartapk.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pixartapk.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-13 12:21:50 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies pixartapk.com as a high-risk domain due to its generic phishing threat type. This domain was flagged by 4 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating a potential threat, and is registered through NameCheap, Inc., with its current status still active, however, specific details such as IP, creation date, and blocklists are not provided but the risk level is notably high. To mitigate the risks associated with generic phishing, users should exercise extreme caution when visiting pixartapk.com, looking out for signs of impersonation or fake login prompts, and never enter sensitive information without verifying the site's authenticity on PhishDestroy, which can provide more detailed safety recommendations and threat analysis based on unique seed eb3b6d [Updates since narrative was generated:] - WHOIS creation date: 2025-07-12 - Public blocklists: now listed on 3 feeds ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260610-651F2C Favicon MD5: 39a7d483e6a706d2707abdf6bd2c78f9 TLS cert SHA-256: d71ca05620a652f2af19d731ee2abdb1ce65374d56d8d6cce8eb7cbe6625a45a ## 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/pixartapk.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pixartapk.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.
