# PhishDestroy threat dossier — trx.store ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-23 00:08:49 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/trx.store/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 67/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, G-Data, SOCRadar, Sophos ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

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: 2026-04-06 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-06 16:40:12 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-23 01:16:46 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 00:16:33 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d6300-3d49-70ad-8f89-dd03047989bd/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/trx.store crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.trx.store Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=trx.store AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/trx.store URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/trx.store/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-06 16:45:12 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies trx.store as an active crypto drainer mimicking the TRON blockchain ecosystem. This domain operates under a generic phishing threat type focused on cryptocurrency asset theft through unauthorized wallet connections and credential harvesting. The site currently remains active as of the latest assessment cycle. trx.store resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3 and is flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating a low immediate detection rate despite clear malicious intent. The domain uses a Google Trust Services SSL certificate for authenticity signaling, hosted on infrastructure associated with known high-risk activity. While the precise creation date and registrar remain unverified in open sources, the domain’s operational status and infrastructure choices reflect deliberate evasion tactics targeting cryptocurrency users. Trust indicators are artificially inflated to deceive visitors into believing the site is legitimate. Given the confirmed intent to deceive users into connecting cryptocurrency wallets or entering private keys under the guise of TRON-based services, this domain represents an immediate financial threat. Users are strongly advised to avoid accessing trx.store entirely. If accidentally visited, disconnect any connected wallets immediately, clear browser cache and cookies, and scan devices using updated antivirus software. Report the domain to your wallet provider and relevant cybersecurity authorities to aid in blocking and takedown efforts. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 4/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 8c017443f2eda379ca29396043afd60d601d54700360e065a97bdceddb9c9bb0 ## 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/trx.store/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=trx.store 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.
