# PhishDestroy threat dossier — sushiswap.trade ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-02 13:29:12 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/sushiswap.trade/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: SushiSwap (and: arbitrum, base, discord, layerzero, metamask) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 5/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, AlphaSOC, CyRadar, Fortinet, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- ASN: ASAS16509 AMAZON-02, US Registrar: eNom, LLC Nameservers: ["dns2.name-services.com", "dns3.name-services.com", "dns1.name-services.com", "dns4.name-services.com", "dns5.name-services.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Sushi 🍣 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Amazon RSA 2048 M03 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:20:15 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-23 13:16:55 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 08:40:12 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019891c0-5e14-740b-8535-6b4040de0d11/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/sushiswap.trade crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.sushiswap.trade Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=sushiswap.trade AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/sushiswap.trade URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/sushiswap.trade/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:15:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies sushiswap.trade as an active phishing domain focused on generic credential theft, likely targeting cryptocurrency users by impersonating the Sushi brand. The domain uses the page title "Sushi 🍣" to lure victims into a fraudulent environment designed to harvest sensitive information. This medium-risk threat poses a significant danger to users unfamiliar with legitimate SushiSwap platforms. The domain sushiswap.trade was registered on February 21, 2026, through eNom, LLC, and remains active. Technical analysis shows five out of ninety-five security vendors flagging the domain on VirusTotal, alongside its presence on three distinct security blocklists. These indicators confirm ongoing malicious activity and community recognition of its threat. The domain infrastructure suggests a straightforward phishing setup without advanced evasion but sufficient to deceive typical users. Given the domain's continued activity and partial detection by security tools, users are strongly advised to avoid interaction with sushiswap.trade. Organizations and individuals should update blocklists and educate users about verifying official SushiSwap URLs. Monitoring and reporting any suspicious activity related to this domain will help mitigate potential credential compromise and financial loss. ## 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/sushiswap.trade/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=sushiswap.trade 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.
