No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-03-24 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-10 16:20:44 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-24 13:41:57 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 19:20:35 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d7789-f1f2-7578-bbc7-f0abbf1717af/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/polymarketblog.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.polymarketblog.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=polymarketblog.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/polymarketblog.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/polymarketblog.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-10 16:21:14 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies polymarketblog.com as an active crypto drainer phishing domain impersonating Polymarket’s official platform. The site is designed to trick users into connecting crypto wallets or entering credentials under false pretenses, enabling direct asset theft or account takeover. Blockchain security researchers report that similar domains often deploy fake liquidity mining interfaces or fraudulent “airdrops” to harvest private keys or drain wallets through malicious smart contract interactions. No specific drainer kit signature (e.g., Inferno Drainer, Angel Drainer) is publicly confirmed at this time, but behavior aligns with known cryptocurrency phishing toolkits targeting DeFi users. This domain was flagged by 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal and appears on two public blocklists. It is registered through Cloudflare, Inc., resolves to IP 216.150.1.1, and holds a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. The domain was created on March 24, 2026, suggesting a recently deployed campaign. Despite being blocked by MetaMask and SEAL, the low VT detection rate indicates evasive tactics or slow signature propagation. Its short age and minimal detection history increase the risk of successful user compromise before broader takedown measures take effect. As of this report, polymarketblog.com remains active and unblocked on major browsers. Security vendors have begun flagging the domain, and wallet providers like MetaMask have implemented network-level blocks. However, users may still encounter the site via direct links in social media, phishing emails, or impersonated ads. Remaining risk is elevated due to the domain’s recent registration, low detection coverage, and active use in crypto scams. Users should avoid visiting this domain entirely and report any suspected interactions to their security team or wallet provider. Ongoing monitoring is required to prevent further exploitation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 44e8d16d8ed43a3f0d8a43920f598629 TLS cert SHA-256: 5f61f24ecb22b8849eda82977271e4bda07fb0fdba4ae632f9e99774525332b5 ## 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/polymarketblog.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=polymarketblog.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.
