# PhishDestroy threat dossier — reward-moonwell.xyz ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-28 21:05:40 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/reward-moonwell.xyz/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Generic Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: CRDF URLQuery: 3 detections Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Nameservers: chelsea.ns.cloudflare.com, dan.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-10 Expires: 2027-06-10 Page title: Un instant… ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-08 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d52eb991affba37e0ea3c6593c586dea345f1f390be3c676cd1616b29f50648e ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-10 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-24 20:45:41 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-24 18:56:41 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 20:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-25 12:18:56 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019efaf2-9081-739f-83f1-9bd4d209653f/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/42f3e21c-03ad-40c8-9679-eab2480eeab5 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/reward-moonwell.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.reward-moonwell.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=reward-moonwell.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/reward-moonwell.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/reward-moonwell.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-24 21:00:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies reward-moonwell.xyz as a generic phishing domain masquerading as the legitimate Moonwell protocol. The domain leverages homoglyphs and brand impersonation to harvest wallet credentials and seed phrases. While no custom drainer kit artifacts have been confirmed in public sandboxes, the page likely serves a clipboard-modifying or wallet-draining JavaScript payload once a victim connects their wallet, consistent with current Moonwell-themed phishing campaigns observed in Q2 2026. This domain was flagged under investigation with a VirusTotal detection score of 1/95 detections as of the seed timestamp a97a72. The domain resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, is registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, and was created on June 10, 2026. Google Safe Browsing (GSB) has not yet flagged this domain, and it currently appears on zero public blocklists. The fresh registration and zero detections indicate a low-profile, high-precision operation likely targeting early adopters of the Moonwell DeFi protocol. The domain remains active and poses a direct threat to cryptocurrency users seeking to engage with Moonwell. PhishDestroy recommends immediate network-level and endpoint blocking of 188.114.97.3 and the domain reward-moonwell.xyz. Users should avoid accessing the site, verify all links via reputable sources, and consider revoking any exposed wallet permissions. Although detection coverage is currently low, ongoing monitoring and proactive threat hunting are essential to prevent credential or fund loss. The risk level remains under investigation but is classified as active due to confirmed impersonation and operational indicators. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260624-91D37D Favicon MD5: 03b14f1517c2af33bd7ba0733eb861c9 TLS cert SHA-256: d52eb991affba37e0ea3c6593c586dea345f1f390be3c676cd1616b29f50648e ## 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/reward-moonwell.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=reward-moonwell.xyz 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.
