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: 2026-07-05 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-06 18:12:37 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-10 18:40:22 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f3832-bdac-7337-8118-0ff94537522a/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/plusgoldsmart.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.plusgoldsmart.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=plusgoldsmart.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/plusgoldsmart.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/plusgoldsmart.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-06 18:16:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain plusgoldsmart.live is currently identified as hosting a crypto drainer phishing threat and remains active. The page title 'Smartchain' suggests possible impersonation of blockchain-related services, potentially targeting cryptocurrency users and investors. This domain poses a high risk to users who may be misled by its fraudulent operations. Technical analysis reveals that the domain was registered through Name.com, Inc. and resolves to the IP address 217.216.32.97. The SSL certificate for this domain is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common choice for both legitimate and illicit sites due to its ease of access. VirusTotal reports that 3 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain as malicious. Additionally, the domain was created on July 05, 2026, indicating it might be part of a recently established phishing campaign. Despite the lack of extensive blocklisting, the documented detections raise significant concerns over its legitimacy and safety. Considering the active status and the specific threat type associated with plusgoldsmart.live, users are advised to exercise caution. It is recommended to avoid interacting with this domain and to employ robust security measures such as updated antivirus software and secure browsing practices. Organizations should consider blocking access to this domain at the network level to prevent potential compromise. Continuous monitoring of such domains is essential to mitigate risks associated with emerging phishing infrastructures. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 3ca96a29eb37c09a59136399af3e0214 TLS cert SHA-256: 5d89f73714b909315c32407fb93bd62a88c453b600578eb941f78db834870610 ## 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/plusgoldsmart.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=plusgoldsmart.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.
