# PhishDestroy threat dossier — smartearnoptions.live ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-24 01:26:47 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/smartearnoptions.live/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 59/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/94 security vendors flagged this domain ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 198.251.84.200 (LU, Luxembourg) ASN: AS53667 FranTech Solutions Hosting org: FranTech Solutions Registrar: Dynadot Inc Nameservers: ns5.my-control-panel.com, ns6.my-control-panel.com Registered: 2026-04-20 Expires: 2027-04-20 ## 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: 2026-04-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-22 20:42:32 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-04-22 17:49:13 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-23 13:02:10 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 20:44:05 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019db646-d953-726a-b5fd-92529fb3ffca/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/53fdb6a1-d956-4672-b429-44ae0ca20ef6 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/smartearnoptions.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.smartearnoptions.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=smartearnoptions.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/smartearnoptions.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/smartearnoptions.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-22 20:44:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain smartearnoptions.live was identified as a crypto drainer phishing site impersonating the legitimate platform Smart Earn Options. This domain is currently offline, as of the latest analysis, following its flagging as a high-risk threat vector. The platform PhishDestroy has cataloged this domain under active phishing investigations due to its deceptive tactics aimed at siphoning cryptocurrency assets from unsuspecting users. PhishDestroy identifies smartearnoptions.live as a crypto drainer phishing domain with a current VirusTotal detection rate of 0 out of 95 vendors, indicating it has not yet been widely flagged despite its malicious intent. This domain was registered on April 20, 2026, through Dynadot Inc., resolving to the IP address 198.251.84.200. The domain’s trust scores and blocklist presence remain minimal at this stage, though its SSL certificate issued by Let’s Encrypt may lend it a veneer of legitimacy. The absence of detections underscores the evolving nature of such threats and the need for proactive monitoring. While smartearnoptions.live is currently offline, users are strongly advised to exercise caution and avoid interacting with any associated links or platforms. PhishDestroy recommends verifying the legitimacy of any financial or cryptocurrency-related domains through its database prior to engagement. Additionally, users should ensure their devices have updated security software and avoid entering sensitive information on untrusted websites. For further protection, enabling multi-factor authentication (MFA) on cryptocurrency accounts and using hardware wallets for asset storage can mitigate exposure to drainer scripts and phishing exploits. This domain’s temporary offline status does not guarantee long-term safety, and continued vigilance is essential. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260422-EDEBBA ## 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/smartearnoptions.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=smartearnoptions.live 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.
