No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-22 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-22 01:42:42 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-13 14:18:07 UTC (STALE — 23 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-02-27 00:34:19 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 23 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 23 days stale) 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/019c8301-881d-7483-902d-d547c66506f2/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/f18a0eb9-3e53-426b-9f92-d1193248c864 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pump-vault.fun crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pump-vault.fun Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pump-vault.fun AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pump-vault.fun URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pump-vault.fun/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 16:42:00 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Pump-vault.fun was a suspicious website claiming to offer a 30% cashback on losses from cryptocurrency rug pulls. Although currently offline, this domain posed a low-level phishing risk by attempting to lure users with promises of financial compensation related to crypto scams. Such sites exploit the fear and urgency of lost funds to trick visitors into sharing sensitive information or credentials. This phishing attack operated by advertising cashback incentives to victims of crypto rug pulls, a common scam in decentralized finance. Visitors were likely encouraged to submit personal data or wallet details under the pretense of recovering losses. The domain appeared on multiple security blocklists and was flagged by some antivirus vendors, signaling potential malicious intent. Its creation date in the future suggests a possible manipulation or reporting error, but the domain’s registration and hosting details further support its suspicious nature. If someone visited pump-vault.fun, it is crucial to avoid entering any personal or financial information. Users should scan their devices with updated security software and monitor accounts for unauthorized activity. Changing passwords for any associated online services, especially cryptocurrency wallets or exchanges, is recommended. Reporting the incident to relevant authorities or platforms can also help prevent others from falling victim to similar scams. Staying informed and cautious about unsolicited offers related to crypto losses is vital for online safety. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260222-27F0F0 Favicon MD5: 3b95f264ba9ca3874a7cd5528ce97142 TLS cert SHA-256: 0aa535126b09f3ebe5068dcaff63a58bcb2847108f36057055d562271850078b ## 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/pump-vault.fun/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pump-vault.fun 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.
