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: 2026-01-20 12:07:52 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-03-31 01:14:56 UTC (STALE — 22 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-02-27 07:17:06 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 22 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 22 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/019bdaa8-7e97-747d-9559-233303b6c82f/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/shapes.finance crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.shapes.finance Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=shapes.finance AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/shapes.finance URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/shapes.finance/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 00:26:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies shapes.finance as a low-risk generic phishing domain that was designed to deceive users potentially by mimicking legitimate financial services. Although the threat level is considered low, phishing attempts can compromise sensitive user information and lead to unauthorized access or financial loss, underscoring the importance of caution. The domain shapes.finance was registered on February 21, 2026, through NameCheap, Inc. It resolves to IP address 104.21.16.55 and was reported in one threat intelligence pulse on AlienVault OTX. Additionally, the domain appears on three security blocklists and triggered alerts from 2 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal. Its current status is offline, indicating that the domain is no longer active or accessible. Users are urged to avoid accessing shapes.finance or providing any personal or financial information if encountered. It is recommended to maintain updated security software, be vigilant of suspicious URLs, and verify website authenticity before engagement. Reporting any attempted phishing to security teams or platforms like PhishDestroy can help protect the broader community from similar threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: 06bf9c1a11a086c5b4cf448b4ebe1e7c803940fdf02ce90100b54c07ecc42f84 TLS cert SHA-256: e88cf83eb0f9bebd3932b974894eae5120a4056075088fa79d8b5902612312a2 ## 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/shapes.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=shapes.finance 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.
