# PhishDestroy threat dossier — polyclaude.live ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-28 10:19:26 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/polyclaude.live/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 61/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 2.26.254.142 (NL, Hopel) ASN: ASAS198550 nodehost-as NODE HOST LIMITED, GB Hosting org: AS198550 NODE HOST LIMITED Registrar: PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Nameservers: natasha.ns.cloudflare.com, nick.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-20 Expires: 2027-06-20 Page title: PolyClaude — Automated Trading Agent for Polymarket HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YE2 Expires: 2026-09-19 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4ab01e2a3f68ebcc303786735a061d3807de6b3a28d58478e22d9f1e50eb90ec ## 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: 2026-06-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-26 21:55:18 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-26 19:58:05 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 08:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-27 00:01:07 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f057f-3faa-71e1-9827-77d1fd101e8c/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/557635db-3be6-425c-a181-fd1b92f9f3dd Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/polyclaude.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.polyclaude.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=polyclaude.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/polyclaude.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/polyclaude.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-27 00:03:03 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is under investigation for credential phishing targeting users of Polymarket, a decentralized prediction market platform. The site masquerades as an automated trading agent named PolyClaude, a likely attempt to exploit trust in automated trading tools and the growing popularity of prediction markets. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to harvest login credentials, API keys, or wallet addresses under the guise of offering trading automation services. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain polyclaude.live was registered on June 20, 2026, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. It currently resolves to IP address 2.26.254.142 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which provides basic encryption but does not validate legitimacy. VirusTotal reports 0 detections across 95 security engines, suggesting the domain has not yet been widely flagged or may employ evasion techniques. No blocklist entries or suspicious trust scores were identified at the time of analysis, though the future-dated registration (2026) is atypical and may indicate preemptive domain squatting or planned malicious use. Mitigation for this threat type involves proactive monitoring and user education. Network defenders should implement DNS-based blocking for polyclaude.live and its resolving IP 2.26.254.142, while monitoring for related domains registered through the same registrar. Users should be advised to verify the legitimacy of trading tools through official Polymarket channels and avoid entering credentials or wallet information on unverified platforms. Organizations handling prediction market data should audit logs for connections to 2.26.254.142 and inspect SSL certificates for Let's Encrypt issuances tied to newly registered domains with financial or trading themes.

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/polyclaude.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=polyclaude.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
