Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies up-holdd-io.created.app as a high-risk domain that impersonates Uphold, a legitimate crypto and metals trading platform, to potentially drain user crypto assets, this generic phishing threat does not appear to utilize a known drainer kit. The domain up-holdd-io.created.app has a VirusTotal score of 3/95, was registered through Tucows Domains Inc, resolves to IP 216.150.1.193, and was created on May 21, 2026, furthermore, Google Safe Browsing flags this domain for phishing, and it appears on 3 security blocklists, indicating a significant threat to users. This domain is currently offline, which suggests that response actions have been taken to mitigate the threat, however, due to its high risk level and the fact that it was able to evade detection by 92 out of 95 security vendors, users are still advised to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of any domains claiming to be Uphold before entering sensitive information, PhishDestroy recommends users to stay vigilant and report any similar domains to help prevent crypto phishing attacks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: cff90fc1e2b021e715882789ac83aff1 TLS cert SHA-256: 927656e07b11c1b9142869c6a6c1996526993b64fd76d6b8ad10c405cebaa0f8 ## 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 (operator 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/up-holdd-io.created.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=up-holdd-io.created.app 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
