# PhishDestroy threat dossier — started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-28 23:47:26 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 97/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Google ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, ESET, Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 34.144.206.118 (US, Kansas City) ASN: ASAS396982 GOOGLE-CLOUD-PLATFORM - Google LLC, US Hosting org: AS396982 Google LLC Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: dns1.p08.nsone.net, dns2.p08.nsone.net, dns3.p08.nsone.net, dns4.p08.nsone.net Registered: 2016-12-17 Expires: 2027-12-17 Page title: Trézor.io/Start — Starting Up™ Your Device | Trezor®® HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-07-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wixstudio.com ## 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: 2016-12-17 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-20 21:49:41 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-20 19:54:44 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 00:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-21 00:03:28 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ee693-8306-7231-ad7c-520434d52b38/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/1e3c2bd4-1777-4a72-98ce-d1eea0c7a503 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-23 20:06:03 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This site, hosted at started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com, is an impersonation scam targeting the Google brand. The page title, "Trézor.io/Start — Starting Up™ Your Device | Trezor®®," indicates it masquerades as a cryptocurrency hardware wallet setup portal. The threat posed is credential harvesting or malware distribution, as users seeking legitimate device initialization are redirected to a fraudulent interface designed to steal sensitive information or install malicious software. Technical analysis shows the site was flagged by 4 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, including alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, ESET, and Gridinsoft, and is listed on 1 blocklist. It is registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC, with a creation date of 2016-12-17. The IP address 34.144.206.118 is located in the United States and belongs to AS396982 Google LLC. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt (R13), and nameservers are dns1.p08.nsone.net through dns4.p08.nsone.net. The site is currently DOWN/OFFLINE, indicating the threat is not active at this time. The DOM risk score is 61, suggesting a moderate risk level. While the domain is old, its impersonation of a legitimate brand and the security detections warrant monitoring for reactivation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260620-80FB96 Favicon MD5: f4feb61d53bc0de67557513853fa54f1 TLS cert SHA-256: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4 ## 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/started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=started-tereser-io.wixstudio.com 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.
