No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-14 12:26:33 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-13 07:50:52 UTC (STALE — 17 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-03-16 12:04:47 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 17 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 17 days stale) 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/019c557c-e4e6-7621-a05c-ed11676176f4/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/446149e0-8a94-42a0-bbde-2499a7dc87aa Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/send-usdt-erc20.exchange crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.send-usdt-erc20.exchange Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=send-usdt-erc20.exchange AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/send-usdt-erc20.exchange URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/send-usdt-erc20.exchange/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 16:43:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies send-usdt-erc20.exchange as a low-risk generic phishing domain targeting cryptocurrency users. The site’s page title is minimal, suggesting limited engagement beyond fraudulent intent. Technically, the domain resolves to IP 89.46.238.247 and is registered via NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. It appears on one security blocklist and has some flags from security vendors, indicating potential malicious infrastructure. Currently active and created in early 2026, this domain remains a concern for user safety. Users should avoid interacting with this site and exercise caution with unsolicited cryptocurrency offers. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260214-FB78DE Favicon SHA-256: ed6f6f2144998175c846a99d2a0faab5bf7b6ace318f0fe2dc4bfeaf4700c1d8 TLS cert SHA-256: 8986d2bf6d6a158ad2f6ce0f10395f202ffeae8f8f5c106f7584688b5b2108cd ## 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/send-usdt-erc20.exchange/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=send-usdt-erc20.exchange 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.
