No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-25 03:16:00 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-25 01:17:17 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-25 18:20:19 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019efc57-9d08-7540-b95d-56f20b5eef4e/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/50020882-93c7-4743-a627-2167ca1d3836 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/tether-matc.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.tether-matc.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=tether-matc.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/tether-matc.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/tether-matc.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 03:24:03 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This report analyzes the domain tether-matc.net. Based on naming patterns and the absence of a provided page title, the site appears designed to impersonate the Tether cryptocurrency platform, likely targeting users for credential theft or wallet compromise through a fraudulent login or support portal. The typo-squatted domain name ("matc" instead of "match" or similar) indicates an attempt to deceive visitors seeking legitimate Tether services. Technical analysis reveals zero security detections across all 95 VirusTotal scanners, indicating the site is not flagged by antivirus or blocklists. However, it is listed on one blocklist. The domain was registered on 2026-06-12 via GoDaddy.com, LLC, and resolves to IP address 162.245.220.207. Nameservers are ns09.domaincontrol.com and ns10.domaincontrol.com. SSL certificate status is not provided in the available data. The domain status is ACTIVE, and it remains operational. Despite the absence of detections, the recent creation date, domain name structure, and single blocklist listing collectively indicate a high risk of phishing or impersonation. Immediate caution and avoidance of interaction are recommended. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - WHOIS creation date: 2026-06-12 - Public blocklists: now listed on 1 feed ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260625-1A9BA6 Favicon MD5: 6f6322affc9e860a1dee9f09c8ec530e TLS cert SHA-256: 7d35c56d7a636aaf37b32090e9ddd7f14c1081f1f972c0d0d50b98d23ac6f956 ## 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/tether-matc.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tether-matc.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.
