No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-14 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-14 20:23:06 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-22 19:40:15 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d8d03-65f5-73ff-88c1-045f33610fca/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-14 20:24:17 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev as an ACTIVE crypto_drainer campaign operating at HIGH risk, with unique seed c9f510. This fraudulent page impersonates Root Protocol’s “Building the Operating System of Web3” branding to deceive users into connecting cryptocurrency wallets and authorizing malicious transactions. The threat actor leverages Cloudflare Pages and Google Trust Services SSL to appear legitimate, while quietly draining funds from exposed wallets. This domain was flagged by 2 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, appears on 1 known blocklist (ScamSniffer), and resolves to IP 188.114.96.3 via Cloudflare, Inc. The SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services (a tactic to bypass security filters) adds superficial trustworthiness. Despite its polished appearance, the underlying infrastructure and detection gaps reveal a sophisticated operation designed to harvest private keys, seed phrases, and authorize unauthorized blockchain transactions. To mitigate risk, users must immediately avoid interacting with root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev or any derivative pages under the same seed c9f510. Never connect wallets or enter recovery phrases on unfamiliar sites—especially those claiming to be “Root Protocol” or “Web3 OS.” Enable wallet filters like ScamSniffer, revoke any unauthorized smart contract approvals via tools like Revoke.cash, and report suspicious domains to threat intelligence platforms. Stay vigilant: crypto drainers exploit urgency and branding trust to steal assets irreversibly. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 12af6b39900b89189ee1aef8fda2d7a08fc8c9f6880541a3c2c67f2f92ec9e85 ## 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/root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=root-xyz-isme-claim.pages.dev 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.
