Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Global Domain Group LLC Nameservers: ["brad.ns.cloudflare.com", "bristol.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-05-16 Page title: Trust - Crypto Card HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-09 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: cd0c9a549886b86cb1ca829cfc8a5b36a9347d650fc24df0c1b2a3b42453ac38 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: pending notification queue. No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-17 00:03:42 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-05-16 21:04:10 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-17 08:40:36 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable 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/019e3297-a313-770b-bf3a-425cce76ea0f/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/6b31e75a-cfc4-406a-afe8-8d511986a431 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/tw-protocol.org crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.tw-protocol.org Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=tw-protocol.org AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/tw-protocol.org URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/tw-protocol.org/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-17 00:04:54 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies tw-protocol.org as an active brand impersonation scam masquerading as Drift to deceive visitors. This domain leverages visual and textual cues to appear legitimate, aiming to trick users into divulging credentials or downloading malicious payloads under the guise of an official service. The domain was registered solely to impersonate Drift, exposing users to credential theft or crypto drainer attacks if any interaction occurs. Evidence confirms the threat: VirusTotal shows 0 out of 95 security engines flagging the domain, indicating it remains undetected by most antivirus solutions as of the latest scan. The domain was created on May 10, 2026, and is registered through Global Domain Group LLC. It resolves to IP 172.67.199.247 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear trustworthy. These indicators, combined with the domain's recent creation and impersonation intent, highlight a high-risk threat. If you visited tw-protocol.org, do not enter any credentials or download files. Clear your browser cache and cookies related to the site. Run a full antivirus scan on your device. Report the domain to your IT security team or use a trusted URL checker like VirusTotal to verify its status. Avoid clicking any links or interacting further to prevent potential credential theft or malware installation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260516-3225D0 Favicon MD5: 58fd2a12f571cafad976ed5feddeeacc TLS cert SHA-256: cd0c9a549886b86cb1ca829cfc8a5b36a9347d650fc24df0c1b2a3b42453ac38 ## 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/tw-protocol.org/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tw-protocol.org 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.
