# PhishDestroy threat dossier — salamoneq.xyz ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-02 21:36:49 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/salamoneq.xyz/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 94/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Investment Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.35.110 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: OVH, SAS Nameservers: lynn.ns.cloudflare.com, walk.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-04-05 Page title: Salamoneq | Portfolio ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-07-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 2a7c3a017091da3550d6a9367631eb5dcb9dba21bf9e9446a37aa01d2a83a09f ## 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: 2026-04-05 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-10 16:22:22 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-04-10 14:46:30 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-23 01:28:08 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 00:28:02 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d778d-b44e-76ba-b61a-c43a86d28827/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/18d4ef06-9da2-4181-bf52-c96d0d2f1134 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/salamoneq.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.salamoneq.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=salamoneq.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/salamoneq.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/salamoneq.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-10 16:23:29 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies salamoneq.xyz as an elevated-risk crypto drainer domain currently active in the threat landscape. This domain employs deceptive techniques to trick users into connecting their cryptocurrency wallets, enabling direct asset theft. The immediate risk level is elevated due to the domain's active status and its specific focus on cryptocurrency drainer attacks, which have seen increasing prevalence in recent threat intelligence reports. This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy after security analysis revealed multiple red flags in its infrastructure and behavior. salamoneq.xyz resolves to IP address 104.21.35.110, which is hosted by OVH SAS, registered on April 05, 2026. VirusTotal engines detected this threat with a detection ratio of 1 out of 95 security vendors, indicating low but present recognition among security tools. The domain utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which provides a false sense of legitimacy while masking malicious operations. These technical indicators, combined with the domain's recent creation date, suggest an opportunistic and potentially short-lived threat campaign designed to exploit current market conditions or user behaviors. Mitigation against crypto drainer domains like salamoneq.xyz requires proactive cybersecurity practices focused specifically on wallet security. Users should avoid connecting their cryptocurrency wallets to any untrusted websites or services, particularly those encountered through unsolicited communications or advertisements. Implementing hardware wallet solutions for large asset holdings adds an additional layer of protection against drainer attacks. Security researchers monitoring this threat should flag the associated IP address 104.21.35.110 and maintain awareness of this domain's continued activity through threat intelligence feeds. Organizations should consider blocking this domain at the network level while investigating any potential exposure within their user base. Regular security awareness training highlighting the specific tactics used by crypto drainers can help prevent users from falling victim to these sophisticated social engineering attacks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260410-AD6259 Favicon MD5: e2e85e65069abe36cded4dd248244110 TLS cert SHA-256: 2a7c3a017091da3550d6a9367631eb5dcb9dba21bf9e9446a37aa01d2a83a09f ## 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/salamoneq.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=salamoneq.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.
