# PhishDestroy threat dossier — sunswap.asia ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-21 00:51:54 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/sunswap.asia/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Base ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai AlienVault OTX: 4 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 4 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Registrar: GNAME.COM PTE. LTD. Nameservers: ["luke.ns.cloudflare.com", "harleigh.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-07 Page title: SunSwap - TRON-based Decentralized Trading Protocol | sunswap.asia ## 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: 2026-06-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-07 15:58:49 UTC — PREDATES WHOIS; likely from a prior registration of the same name (dropped-domain re-registration) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-06-07 13:30:19 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-06-21 00:20:43 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-10 06:51:25 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/019ea244-2fc4-715b-af89-34d6ccfcdee7/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/sunswap.asia crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.sunswap.asia Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=sunswap.asia AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/sunswap.asia URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/sunswap.asia/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 16:39:39 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain sunswap.asia has been identified as a brand impersonation threat, specifically targeting the Base brand. Despite its page title claiming to be a TRON-based decentralized trading protocol, this site is a phishing operation designed to deceive users. The domain was created on June 07, 2026, and registered through GNAME.COM PTE. LTD., which is a common registrar for malicious domains. It currently appears on 4 security blocklists, indicating a widespread recognition of its malicious intent. Technical analysis reveals that VirusTotal flags this domain with a score of 1 out of 95 security vendors, meaning only one vendor has identified it as malicious. Additionally, AlienVault OTX has recorded it in 4 threat intelligence pulses, further confirming its association with phishing campaigns. The domain's IP address and Google Safe Browsing status were not provided, but the presence on multiple blocklists suggests it has been actively monitored. Despite being taken offline, the domain's registration details and threat intelligence data remain valuable for identifying similar threats. Currently, sunswap.asia is offline, which is a positive outcome from response actions. However, users should remain cautious as similar domains may arise. PhishDestroy recommends checking the full report for detailed indicators and ensuring that any interactions with such domains are avoided. The remaining risk is low due to the takedown, but vigilance is advised for any future impersonations of Base or other brands. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - Public blocklists: now listed on 4 feeds ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260607-625A79 Favicon MD5: 1765dc4e6985299836ba7afe5dc68bd4 ## 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/sunswap.asia/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=sunswap.asia 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.
