Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Nameservers: ["grant.ns.cloudflare.com", "ziggy.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-15 Expires: 2027-06-13 Page title: NewsTrustApp ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-11 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: f5fd856ea7b36b9129d48897330a73860c712887647b87035a3a5d986f0d5829 ## 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: 2026-06-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-15 10:30:19 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-17 18:01:45 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-19 00:18:00 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ecaed-929c-72ec-8aa0-777e94b4e673/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/073f9e5b-b3dc-4f4a-a28c-8a943277be8c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/trustwallet-pay.world crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.trustwallet-pay.world Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=trustwallet-pay.world AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/trustwallet-pay.world URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/trustwallet-pay.world/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 17:37:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as an active high-risk brand impersonation threat targeting Trust Wallet users. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to deceive victims into disclosing cryptocurrency wallet credentials or installing malicious software under the guise of a legitimate service. The page title 'NewsTrustApp' suggests an attempt to mimic official Trust Wallet communications, increasing the likelihood of successful social engineering attacks. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain trustwallet-pay.world was registered on June 15, 2026, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. It currently resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3 and presents an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services (WE1). Detection metrics show 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal have flagged the domain, while it appears on three distinct security blocklists. The domain remains operational despite being blocked by multiple threat intelligence feeds. Mitigation requires immediate action from network defenders and end users. Organizations should update web filtering rules to block both the domain and its resolving IP address (188.114.96.3) at the perimeter. End users must verify all communications claiming to be from Trust Wallet by cross-referencing official channels, particularly those requesting credential input or software installation. Given the domain's recent registration and active status, continuous monitoring for related infrastructure (e.g., subdomains, newly registered lookalike domains) is recommended to prevent further exploitation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260617-D5D43E Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: f5fd856ea7b36b9129d48897330a73860c712887647b87035a3a5d986f0d5829 ## 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/trustwallet-pay.world/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=trustwallet-pay.world 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.
