syncswap.net Phishing Site Detected

Analysis on syncswap.net indicates an active phishing infrastructure observed as of July 28, 2026. The domain is delegated to Cloudflare name servers alex.ns.cloudflare.com and mckenzie.ns.cloudflare.com, suggesting the use of Cloudflare’s CDN and DNS protection to obscure the originating server. Registration was performed through NameCheap, Inc., a registrar frequently associated with malicious registrations. HTTP probing returns a 307 Temporary Redirect, a pattern commonly employed to forward traffic to a malicious landing page after initial request.

VirusTotal scans show that 3 of 91 security vendors have flagged the domain, providing independent detection of malicious activity. The domain is presently listed on the PhishDestroy blocklist and appears on one additional security blocklist, confirming that at least two external threat intelligence sources consider it hostile. No SSL certificate details, IP address, or geo‑location data are available from the supplied intelligence, limiting deeper infrastructure profiling.

Defenders should immediately block syncswap.net at network perimeter and endpoint controls, add the domain to internal deny lists, and monitor for any newly‑registered domains that resolve to the same Cloudflare name servers. Continuous re‑scanning with multi‑vendor services is advised to capture any changes in detection status. Observers should also watch for future redirects or payload changes, as the current 307 response may be a staging step for a more elaborate phishing campaign.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      c7bcede4997a9a20f50f891fd0f9ef66936f468e8b189baced65c3da49cd025e

## 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 (operator 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.
