No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-29 00:51:44 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-28 21:58:47 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-30 09:40:51 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019dd611-fdc6-7081-8960-836ebc22b31b/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/11607d43-d5fb-4330-8ea2-973d5e681c5f Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pulseplays.today crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pulseplays.today Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pulseplays.today AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pulseplays.today URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pulseplays.today/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-29 00:52:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies pulseplays.today as an active crypto drainer scam under investigation. This domain is currently hosting a malicious campaign designed to steal cryptocurrency assets through deceptive tactics. Users are urged to exercise extreme caution when accessing this site or any associated links. Current threat intelligence reveals pulseplays.today remains undetected by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, indicating a potentially emerging threat. The domain is registered with Let's Encrypt for its SSL certificate and its infrastructure includes an unspecified IP address. The domain was created recently, though the exact registration date is not yet confirmed. Blocklist counts and trust scores remain unverified at this stage of analysis. As this threat evolves, PhishDestroy recommends users avoid interacting with pulseplays.today and similar domains entirely. Organizations and individuals should immediately report this domain and block it at the network perimeter. Continuous monitoring for related indicators of compromise is strongly advised until further intelligence is gathered. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 3/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260428-12ECBD Favicon MD5: 095b185e288ed8e4d934ac78fe6a4e2e TLS cert SHA-256: 02fcafb5fbb08191840d9ccce5866d2d7d0101eee34ef5378f9673a110e39fa0 ## 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/pulseplays.today/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pulseplays.today 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.
