Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies tronchecks.com as an active credential phishing domain posing an elevated risk to internet users. The domain is involved in harvesting sensitive login credentials through deceptive means, potentially impersonating legitimate services to lure victims. This threat remains active and requires immediate attention to prevent compromise. Technical analysis reveals that tronchecks.com was registered on April 8, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. The domain is secured with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which can create a false sense of trust among users. It resolves to the IP address 104.21.62.194. VirusTotal data shows that only 1 out of 95 security vendors currently flags this domain, indicating it is still under the radar for many detection systems. No additional blocklist counts or trust scores are reported, which may contribute to its effectiveness at deceiving users. Given the domain's active status and its specific use for credential phishing, users and organizations should exercise caution when encountering tronchecks.com. It is recommended to block access to this domain at the network perimeter and educate users about the risks of unsolicited login requests. Security teams should monitor for any traffic or phishing attempts linked to this IP and domain, update detection rules accordingly, and encourage multi-factor authentication to mitigate credential theft risks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260411-4E974B Favicon MD5: cf22b1ff9089caf6803645cb5deaaf32 TLS cert SHA-256: b4fb392562c2a337f418982200dbcb3fc91706c0e47757a77ccbaf07c8fe3b91 ## 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/tronchecks.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tronchecks.com 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.
