Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] ref65881-crypto-app.com used in high‑risk crypto phishing The domain ref65881-crypto-app.com was registered on July 29, 2026 through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and is currently active. DNS resolution points to the IP address 172.67.217.226, hosted on Cloudflare nameservers james.ns.cloudflare.com and karsyn.ns.cloudflare.com. The domain appears on three security blocklists and has been explicitly blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL, indicating that it is being used in a phishing campaign targeting cryptocurrency users. VirusTotal analysis shows that 2 of 91 security vendors flagged the domain, providing additional confirmation of malicious intent. No public page title, SSL certificate details, or HTTP response codes have been disclosed, leaving the exact content and delivery mechanisms of the phishing page unverified. The lack of further intelligence such as brand targeting or kit attribution means the precise lure employed by the campaign remains uncertain. Defenders should add ref65881-crypto-app.com to network and endpoint blocklists, monitor traffic to its hosting IP 172.67.217.226, and consider sinkholing the domain to disrupt the infrastructure. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as the domain’s short age and active status suggest a rapidly evolving threat vector. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260730-D07D31 Favicon MD5: be6323fad688084a4da311abb1d0eda3 TLS cert SHA-256: bc8684b3448255b28bf12f34153f83597fbff171440efe6b1a7b64d4388706f3 ## 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/ref65881-crypto-app.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ref65881-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.
