# PhishDestroy threat dossier — trust-hold.info ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-25 05:26:24 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/trust-hold.info/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 67/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Investment Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Fortinet, SOCRadar ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.157.142 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: ["chloe.ns.cloudflare.com", "harley.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-04-07 Expires: 2027-04-07 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-07-06 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 3e764ca0146523bb5fcfaa053197e438d6c88f0b65d144bdff3d056a6f3de94e ## 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: 2026-04-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-07 16:44:30 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-07 13:45:56 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-23 02:12:24 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-12 05:00:16 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/019d682e-52c0-7345-9316-35d719ce76e5/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/ed3729dd-1a37-4746-a736-000750467895 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/trust-hold.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.trust-hold.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=trust-hold.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/trust-hold.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/trust-hold.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-07 16:45:20 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies trust-hold.info as a deceptive login phishing domain engineered to harvest user credentials under false pretenses. The site presents itself as a legitimate authentication portal to trick visitors into entering sensitive information such as usernames and passwords. This type of attack is particularly insidious because it exploits user trust in familiar login interfaces. This domain was flagged for hosting deceptive login phishing with no current detections on VirusTotal (0/95), though it may appear reputable due to its Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. Registered on April 07, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, it resolves to IP address 172.67.157.142. As of this assessment, the domain remains uncategorized on major blocklists and lacks domain trust scores reflective of its recent creation. To mitigate risks associated with deceptive login phishing at trust-hold.info, users should avoid entering any login credentials or personal data on the site. Organizations can implement browser-based blocklisting of the domain and IP using threat intelligence feeds. Additionally, public awareness campaigns should emphasize verifying site authenticity via official channels before submitting sensitive information. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 4/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260407-51BE96 Favicon MD5: 1ab3e741056bb0bbf04417e14dd45138 TLS cert SHA-256: 3e764ca0146523bb5fcfaa053197e438d6c88f0b65d144bdff3d056a6f3de94e ## 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/trust-hold.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=trust-hold.info 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.
