# PhishDestroy threat dossier — trovemarkets.claims ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 08:32:38 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/trovemarkets.claims/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 74/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Gridinsoft, Seclookup, SOCRadar URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 4 independent blocklists Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 216.150.1.129 (US, Walnut) ASN: ASAS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. Hosting org: AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. Registrar: Name.com, Inc Nameservers: ns1.vercel-dns.com, ns2.vercel-dns.com Registered: 2026-02-21 Expires: 2027-01-19 Page title: ICO Refund Portal ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-04-18 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 0d1e35ee71f73f51df9364af8a1534ac64556bf26e7f866ecc4821ea76c821a4 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-01-19 21:49:17 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-12 22:45:02 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-16 03:13:17 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019bd83a-9bd5-7546-84e6-ec557c3a7dd5/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/7eb5a162-4582-4533-839c-9c9094a45759 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/trovemarkets.claims crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.trovemarkets.claims Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=trovemarkets.claims AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/trovemarkets.claims URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/trovemarkets.claims/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:27:08 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies trovemarkets.claims as a crypto drainer threat designed to deceive users into surrendering sensitive cryptocurrency credentials. Crypto drainer scams are particularly dangerous as they can result in irreversible loss of digital assets, making user awareness and caution critical. The domain trovemarkets.claims was registered recently on February 21, 2026, and resolved to IP 216.150.1.129. It was flagged by four security blocklists and detected by 4 out of 95 VirusTotal scanners. The site presented itself as an "ICO Refund Portal," a common lure to trick victims into believing they are reclaiming funds. Its trust score by Gridinsoft was 0/100, indicating no credibility. The domain is currently offline, mitigating immediate risk. Users should avoid visiting trovemarkets.claims or providing any cryptocurrency wallet information or private keys. If you suspect you have interacted with this domain, immediately move your funds to a secure wallet and monitor for unauthorized transactions. Always verify the legitimacy of crypto-related refund or investment sites through official channels before engaging. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 4/93 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260119-504595 TLS cert SHA-256: 0d1e35ee71f73f51df9364af8a1534ac64556bf26e7f866ecc4821ea76c821a4 ## 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/trovemarkets.claims/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=trovemarkets.claims 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.
