Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain tapthronehmkr.pages.dev is currently active and poses a phishing threat through a 'Tap to Earn' scam. Despite having no detections on VirusTotal, this domain is listed on PhishDestroy's blocklist, showcasing its early identification. The domain is registered with Cloudflare, Inc., and hosted on an IP in the United States, specifically 172.66.44.136. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, adding a layer of perceived legitimacy to the site. Phishing domains like tapthronehmkr.pages.dev exploit the critical 24-72 hour window between registration and antivirus database updates. During this period, they evade detection by most security tools, making early identification crucial. PhishDestroy's advanced detection capabilities allow it to capture such threats before they propagate through traditional antivirus feeds, as evidenced by the domain's absence from VirusTotal's database. The platform risk score for tapthronehmkr.pages.dev is 68 out of 100, indicating a significant threat level. The page title, 'TAPTHRONE - Tap to Earn,' suggests a scheme designed to lure users with promises of easy earnings, a common tactic in phishing scams. By leveraging Cloudflare's infrastructure, the operators may aim to enhance the site's credibility and reach a wider audience. This case underscores the importance of proactive threat intelligence in identifying and mitigating phishing risks before they impact users. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: cd50e4c9db3d64c94af7851cf9ff2c20efb62ce2556a9d562286403b90a33dde ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/tapthronehmkr.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tapthronehmkr.pages.dev 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
