# PhishDestroy threat dossier — pools-party.xyz ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-30 11:28:40 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pools-party.xyz/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Drainer ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Fortinet, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.134.31 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: davina.ns.cloudflare.com, marek.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-16 Expires: 2027-06-16 Page title: Just a moment... ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-14 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: b57043879928a8bfae6c9ea2a1f1693c97cc3bbe25707af41983714db9c6f5b4 ## 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: 2026-06-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 16:38:19 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-28 16:21:47 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 12:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-29 00:03:03 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0ea9-4985-730a-a2e9-2325b6306891/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/790971b8-1137-4f82-9817-638f8ce514f7 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pools-party.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pools-party.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pools-party.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pools-party.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pools-party.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 16:56:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, pools-party.xyz, is actively flagged as a crypto drainer phishing site designed to compromise cryptocurrency wallets by executing unauthorized transactions. Analysis confirms the domain remains operational, hosting infrastructure that mimics legitimate decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms to deceive users into connecting their wallets. The threat type is highly specific: malicious JavaScript payloads embedded in the site automatically drain funds upon wallet interaction, a tactic increasingly observed in targeted attacks against blockchain users. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain was registered on June 16, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. It resolves to the IP address 172.67.134.31, which is part of a cloud-based hosting provider known for anonymized and ephemeral hosting patterns. VirusTotal reports that 2 of 95 security vendors have flagged the domain as malicious, a low detection rate that underscores the sophistication of the obfuscation techniques employed. Additionally, AlienVault OTX lists the domain in one threat intelligence pulse, further corroborating its association with active phishing campaigns. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, a common tactic to lend superficial legitimacy while masking the underlying malicious intent. The domain remains active as of this assessment, posing an ongoing risk to users who may encounter it through phishing links, malicious advertisements, or compromised third-party platforms. Organizations and individuals are strongly advised to block the domain at the network level and update endpoint protection rules to include the IP address 172.67.134.31. Cryptocurrency wallet users should verify all transaction prompts independently and avoid connecting wallets to unfamiliar or untrusted websites. Given the low initial detection rate, proactive monitoring of related infrastructure—such as domains registered through the same registrar or resolving to adjacent IP ranges—is recommended to identify potential pivot points in this campaign. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-C7C900 Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: b57043879928a8bfae6c9ea2a1f1693c97cc3bbe25707af41983714db9c6f5b4 ## 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/pools-party.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pools-party.xyz 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.
