# PhishDestroy threat dossier — rucds.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-30 23:57:59 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/rucds.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 55/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: G-Data, URLQuery URLQuery: 2 detections ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: Porkbun LLC Nameservers: ["cloe.ns.cloudflare.com", "tate.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-04-18 Page title: MicroBull ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-07-15 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 622138ae78b00524b9ca53c107744be85ae4450295ae3a73db3ee89961918a8c ## 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: 2026-04-18 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-18 17:04:57 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-18 14:06:17 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-26 19:40:21 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 00:28:02 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019da0e6-e819-73de-9d37-0e957e528a38/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/bb492467-7787-49fa-b419-47b236dc0404 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/rucds.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.rucds.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=rucds.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/rucds.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/rucds.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-18 17:06:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies rucds.com as a live generic phishing domain engineered for credential theft, not just generic phishing. The domain does not match any single brand impersonation or deploy a known crypto drainer kit at this time; instead it harvests user credentials through a spoofed login portal. Registrant behavior and page content suggest opportunistic harvesting intended for wallet exfiltration or exchange account takeover. Further analysis of the landing page confirms a credential capture form mimicking a prominent crypto service login without direct ties to a specific drainer service pack. The threat remains under investigation for expansion into drainer toolkits or targeted brand impersonation. rucds.com resolves to IP 188.114.97.3 and was registered on December 18, 2025 through Porkbun LLC. The domain holds a Google Trust Services SSL certificate and currently shows 0 detections on VirusTotal out of 95 engines. As of the last scan, this domain has not been listed on any public blocklists maintained by Google Safe Browsing or commercial threat feeds. The combination of a fresh domain, zero detections, and use of a branded SSL certificate suggests a recently activated attack chain. Current indicators point to low prior reputation across defenses, increasing the risk of successful user compromise. The campaign is actively live and has not been sinkholed or blocked by major browsers or security platforms. At present, the risk level is classified as under investigation due to limited telemetry and no confirmed drainer payload delivery. Immediate user guidance includes avoiding any login attempts on rucds.com, verifying wallet access only through official URLs, enabling 2FA, and reporting the domain to security teams or browsers via Google Safe Browsing submission. Monitoring for expansion into drainer deployment or targeting of specific exchanges is recommended. Remaining risk remains moderate due to fresh infrastructure and low detection coverage, warranting continued scrutiny and proactive blocking where feasible. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260418-F56E96 Favicon MD5: e08e0be25a471ac476ae3700b37763b7 TLS cert SHA-256: 622138ae78b00524b9ca53c107744be85ae4450295ae3a73db3ee89961918a8c ## 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/rucds.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=rucds.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.
