Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged under investigation for brand impersonation targeting cryptocurrency users through a fake TRON blockchain explorer interface. Analysis indicates a high-risk phishing vector designed to deceive victims into interacting with malicious smart contracts or disclosing wallet credentials, though no crypto drainer payload has been confirmed yet. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain tronscan.finance was registered on August 19, 2025, through HOSTINGER operations, UAB. It currently resolves to the IP address 147.93.93.196, with no prior blocklist history. VirusTotal reports 0 detections out of 95 engines, suggesting the domain has not yet been widely flagged. The page title 'TRONSCAN | TRON BlockChain Explorer' precisely mimics the legitimate TRON blockchain explorer, increasing the likelihood of successful deception. No associated SSL certificate anomalies or subdomain patterns were observed in initial scans. Mitigation steps specific to this threat type include immediate blacklisting of the domain and IP 147.93.93.196 across all network security controls. Organizations should deploy browser-based warnings for users attempting to access tronscan.finance, emphasizing the discrepancy between the domain registration date (August 2025) and the established legitimacy of the real TRONSCAN platform. Cryptocurrency wallet providers are advised to monitor for connections originating from this domain and implement transaction verification prompts when interactions with tronscan.finance are detected. End users should be educated to verify domain age, registrar details, and SSL certificate transparency logs before entering wallet credentials or approving smart contract interactions. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260712-881C0A Favicon MD5: 5f2e9800bd7bc9adea7b298fd1e19046 TLS cert SHA-256: 302171b8458f0dac230c979a6230900ba424c53c6f7b2436c004f95e7b881eb6 ## 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/tronscan.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tronscan.finance 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.
