# PhishDestroy threat dossier — sso-uphweld.framer.media ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-02 23:52:20 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/sso-uphweld.framer.media/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 82/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: Investment Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 9/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: LevelBlue, Netcraft Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 31.43.161.6 (NL, Amsterdam) Hosting org: AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. Registrar: CSC Corporate Domains, Inc. Nameservers: ["ns-97.awsdns-12.com", "ns-1854.awsdns-39.co.uk", "ns-535.awsdns-02.net", "ns-1267.awsdns-30.org"] Page title: Uphold Login | Simple Crypto Trading Platform ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YE2 Expires: 2026-09-15 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: e334023347d0326c7c513ce8ff8f685db7a2054e3ec06fa49fa902bdfca050e8 ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-01 18:54:13 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-01 17:00:22 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-03 00:20:37 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-02 00:17:41 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1e98-65cf-7284-9cc2-bc6430f44db7/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/sso-uphweld.framer.media crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.sso-uphweld.framer.media Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=sso-uphweld.framer.media AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/sso-uphweld.framer.media URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/sso-uphweld.framer.media/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-01 19:06:20 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, sso-uphweld.framer.media, is flagged for high-risk brand impersonation targeting cryptocurrency users through a fraudulent Uphold login portal. Analysis indicates the page mimics the legitimate Uphold trading platform, presenting itself as a 'Simple Crypto Trading Platform' to deceive victims into entering credentials or transferring assets. The threat type is classified as brand impersonation, with no evidence of a crypto drainer kit at this stage, though credential theft remains the primary objective. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolves to the IP address 31.43.161.6, hosted under a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to lend an air of legitimacy. VirusTotal detection metrics show 2 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain as malicious, a relatively low but concerning ratio given the domain's active status. The registrar for framer.media is Namecheap, Inc., though no precise domain creation date for the subdomain sso-uphweld.framer.media is publicly available. Google Safe Browsing (GSB) status remains unconfirmed, and no additional blocklist entries beyond VirusTotal have been identified at this time. As of the latest verification, the domain remains active and continues to host the fraudulent Uphold login page. No takedown actions have been observed, and the threat actor's infrastructure appears operational. Users are advised to treat any interaction with this domain as malicious, particularly those redirected from unsolicited communications or advertisements. Organizations should update web filters to block the domain and IP, while individuals should verify the authenticity of crypto trading platforms through official channels before entering credentials. The remaining risk is assessed as high due to the domain's active status and targeted impersonation of a well-known cryptocurrency service. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260701-1F9402 Favicon MD5: 9e421d0b86bb58ca789f5c62a2e6e973 TLS cert SHA-256: e334023347d0326c7c513ce8ff8f685db7a2054e3ec06fa49fa902bdfca050e8 ## 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 (operator 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/sso-uphweld.framer.media/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=sso-uphweld.framer.media 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
