# PhishDestroy threat dossier — steamtradershub.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-02 04:39:13 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/steamtradershub.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 60/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/94 security vendors flagged this domain ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 38.242.221.202 (FR, Lauterbourg) ASN: AS51167 Contabo GmbH Hosting org: Contabo GmbH Registrar: PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Nameservers: ["ns5.mydnspt.net", "ns6.mydnspt.net"] Registered: 2026-04-22 Page title: SteamTradersHub - Trade CS2, Dota 2 & Steam Items with Real Players HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-05-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: a1c63f1e1a22fd207bdaf6dee4ac947a74570c9718207604053a45a9d49aef54 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - www.steamtradershub.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: 2026-04-22 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-22 17:46:56 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-22 14:47:43 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-02 04:58:50 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-25 11:20:27 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) 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/019db5a5-b3d7-76e3-8114-57633d3f1666/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/437aabc5-84df-4983-b879-8c23473fd8f9 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/steamtradershub.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.steamtradershub.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=steamtradershub.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/steamtradershub.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/steamtradershub.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-22 17:47:59 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies steamtradershub.com as an active Steam account credentials harvesting page. This domain is currently engaged in a targeted phishing campaign designed to trick Steam users into surrendering their login credentials and account details. The domain steamtradershub.com is currently flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, indicating it remains undetected by mainstream scanning engines. The domain was registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, resolves to the IP address 38.242.221.202, and holds a valid Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. It was created on July 01, 2025, which suggests a recently established presence. As of now, no major blocklist engines appear to have cataloged the domain. Given the site's recent registration, low detection rate, and active hosting status, steamtradershub.com presents a significant risk to Steam users seeking account upgrades or trade services. Users are strongly advised not to interact with this domain under any circumstances. Steam account holders should report this domain to Steam Support and update their credentials using only official Steam channels. Network administrators are urged to block the domain and IP at the firewall level to prevent access by internal users. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260422-ABC9D0 Favicon MD5: 8667a25a256f85deee9af26d712d2b1a TLS cert SHA-256: a1c63f1e1a22fd207bdaf6dee4ac947a74570c9718207604053a45a9d49aef54 ## 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/steamtradershub.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=steamtradershub.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.
