Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies project-spacex.com as a generic phishing domain actively impersonating SpaceX to distribute a counterfeit cryptocurrency token called SpaceX Token (SPAX). This fraudulent website masquerades as an official presale offering up to 200% bonus tokens to lure victims into purchasing the non-existent SPAX token. The campaign leverages SpaceX’s brand recognition to deceive cryptocurrency investors into connecting wallets or transferring funds under the false promise of high returns. project-spacex.com was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors as of the latest scan, indicating no detection by mainstream antivirus engines at the time of investigation. The domain resolves to IP address 217.160.0.209 and was registered through IONOS SE on April 29, 2026. The SSL certificate is issued by Sectigo Limited, which does not validate the site’s legitimacy. Despite the absence of blacklist entries at this time, the site remains active and continues to pose a high risk to users seeking authentic SpaceX-related content or legitimate investment opportunities. Trust scores for the domain are currently unverified due to its recent creation and low detection rate. Current status indicates the domain is active and under continued observation. Users are advised to avoid visiting project-spacex.com and to verify any SpaceX-related cryptocurrency offers through official channels at spacex.com or authorized partners. If interaction has already occurred, users should scan connected devices for malware, revoke any unauthorized wallet connections, and report the domain to PhishDestroy or their cybersecurity provider. Monitor wallet transactions for suspicious activity and consider using hardware wallets for enhanced security when evaluating crypto investments. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 1da43cbdc04136b379f69088a67e9d05 TLS cert SHA-256: 876aea27b9c1b923e7df397343f2ec6769274c3761f6904eb04d748962d462af ## 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/project-spacex.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=project-spacex.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.
