Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] ref61223-crypto-app.com — Phishing Investigation Report ref61223-crypto-app.com was registered on July 29, 2026 through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. The domain is delegated to Cloudflare name servers dakota.ns.cloudflare.com and ines.ns.cloudflare.com and resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3. As of the report date (July 30, 2026) the domain remains active and has been flagged by multiple security services. PhishDestroy, MetaMask and SEAL have each added the domain to their blocklists, and it appears on three additional public blocklists. VirusTotal scanning shows that 2 of 91 antivirus engines have identified the domain as malicious, reinforcing the suspicion of malicious use. The short interval between registration and detection suggests a rapid deployment, typical of opportunistic phishing campaigns. No public information is available regarding SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, or page title, indicating that content analysis has not yet been published. The lack of visible branding or explicit scam type in the current intelligence limits attribution, but the classification as a generic phishing site is supported by the blocklist entries and vendor detections. Defenders should enforce DNS‑level blocking for the domain and monitor traffic to the associated IP address 188.114.96.3. Inclusion of the domain in web‑gateway and endpoint protection policies is recommended, as is continued observation of the Cloudflare name servers for any additional sub‑domains that may be activated. Threat intelligence feeds should be updated to reflect the newly created indicator, and any internal alerts triggered by connections to the IP or domain should be investigated promptly. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260730-B0CF73 Favicon MD5: be6323fad688084a4da311abb1d0eda3 TLS cert SHA-256: c71ce039d3973ca65aaba7c8c692b25268b361e3a0a834b8bab2d77fab48e013 ## 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 (operator 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/ref61223-crypto-app.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ref61223-crypto-app.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
