Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies ranking-dexscreener.com as an active crypto drainer phishing domain currently under investigation. The domain is designed to impersonate DexScreener, a legitimate cryptocurrency analytics platform, with the goal of deceiving users into connecting crypto wallets and draining assets under false pretense. This threat is categorized as a crypto drainer phishing attempt due to its active redirection toward malicious smart contract interactions and wallet-connect prompts. The investigation status remains active as analysts assess the full scope of its operational infrastructure and potential victim impact. This domain was flagged by MetaMask and SEAL, two reputable security platforms focused on cryptocurrency threat prevention. The domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and resolved to IP address 172.67.142.232. Security blocklist records indicate it has been listed on 2 independent threat intelligence feeds. The domain utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate, which may assist in evading user-level detection. Notably, it remains undetected by VirusTotal scanning infrastructure, with 0 of 95 security vendors currently flagging the domain as malicious—highlighting the evolving nature of such crypto-draining threats and the sophistication in evasion techniques employed. Organizations and crypto users are strongly advised to block access to ranking-dexscreener.com at the network and endpoint levels immediately. Blocking rules should include URL filtering, DNS sinkholing, and firewall rules targeting the resolved IP (172.67.142.232). Users should verify the authenticity of any "DexScreener" or ranking-related links, especially those shared in chat groups or social media. Implement wallet-connect permission monitoring tools and utilize hardware wallet solutions for high-value transactions to mitigate drainer risks. Security teams are encouraged to monitor for similar domains using the seed identifier 486868 and to contribute telemetry to threat intelligence platforms to improve collective defense against crypto drainer campaigns. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 3/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260429-F91FE5 Favicon MD5: a9dc2a5dcb1e7d936e0712524250cda1 TLS cert SHA-256: 9fab72c508a9c0920384af8a83bd6006e469242ecbb89aba2f58e520a114d37a ## 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/ranking-dexscreener.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ranking-dexscreener.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.
