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: 2026-06-12 13:34:41 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-12 13:34:41 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 04:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-13 00:18:23 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ebb9b-839c-70f9-b974-6df01110f68c/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/startio-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.startio-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=startio-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/startio-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/startio-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 23:16:50 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain startio-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com has been assessed as an elevated risk MoonPay phishing domain. The specific threat category is generic_phishing, indicating that the domain is designed to impersonate MoonPay's legitimate login page to steal user credentials and personal information. Analysis indicates that this domain was flagged by 5 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a relatively low but notable detection rate. The domain is registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC and resolves to the IP address 34.144.206.118. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common certificate authority used by legitimate and malicious sites alike. The site employs technologies such as Wix, React, Google Cloud, Lodash, HSTS, Google Cloud CDN, and HTTP/3 to create a more convincing and secure-seeming environment. The domain appears on 5 security blocklists and is blocked by MetaMask, PhishDestroy, PhishingArmy, SEAL, and OISD. Additionally, the Gridinsoft trust score is 0/100, indicating a complete lack of trust in the domain. The page title 'Login | MoonPay®® — Sign In™' closely mimics the legitimate MoonPay login page, further enhancing the deception. To mitigate the risk associated with this MoonPay phishing domain, users are advised to verify the URL of any MoonPay login page they visit. Always ensure that the domain is moonpay.com before entering any credentials. Use multi-factor authentication (MFA) whenever possible to add an additional layer of security. Security teams should update their threat intelligence feeds to include this domain and block it at the network level. Additionally, employing DNS-based filtering solutions can help prevent access to this domain and other similar threats. Regularly monitor user access logs for any suspicious activity and conduct phishing awareness training to educate employees on recognizing and avoiding phishing attempts. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 5/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- 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/startio-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=startio-monpaycdn.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.
