# PhishDestroy threat dossier — stormtrade.net ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-23 08:52:32 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/stormtrade.net/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: foundation (and: tron) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.128.253 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/namesilo-killed-our-twitter https://phishdestroy.io/xmrwallet-namesilo-exposed Registered: 2024-05-23 Expires: 2026-05-23 Page title: tronify.rent - Rent Energy ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: WE1 Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2024-05-23 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:23:25 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-22 01:41:10 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 00:26:14 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019bbd4f-8780-7302-b7f5-a4cb5589b92f/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/stormtrade.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.stormtrade.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=stormtrade.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/stormtrade.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/stormtrade.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 01:01:43 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies stormtrade.net as a low-risk brand impersonation domain pretending to be associated with the foundation brand. While the risk is categorized as low, users should remain cautious as this site attempts to deceive visitors by mimicking a trusted entity, potentially leading to confusion or misuse of personal data. The phishing tactic employed by stormtrade.net involves presenting itself under a misleading name and page title ('tronify.rent - Rent Energy') that does not match the brand it impersonates. Despite only one out of 95 security vendors flagging this domain and its presence on three security blocklists, this domain still resolves to an active IP address. This suggests it could be used to harvest information or redirect users to fraudulent services under the guise of a legitimate foundation-related operation. If you have visited stormtrade.net, it is advisable not to enter any personal or financial information on the site. Clear your browser cache and run a security scan on your device. Monitor your accounts for any unusual activity, especially if you shared sensitive data. For ongoing protection, rely on official sources and verified domains when interacting with foundation-related services. PhishDestroy recommends reporting suspicious domains and staying informed to avoid potential scams. ## 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/stormtrade.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=stormtrade.net 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.
