# PhishDestroy threat dossier — upwardsaverbc.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-01 16:12:52 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/upwardsaverbc.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Aave ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 8/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Bfore.Ai PreCrime, BitDefender, ESET, Fortinet, G-Data, Lionic, Sophos Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## 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: 2025-05-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-01 03:53:56 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-01 16:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-01 12:02:52 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1b60-874c-73bb-b345-9510417aaca4/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/upwardsaverbc.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.upwardsaverbc.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=upwardsaverbc.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/upwardsaverbc.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/upwardsaverbc.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-01 03:54:57 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, upwardsaverbc.com, is flagged for brand impersonation targeting Aave, a decentralized finance protocol. Analysis indicates the site presents itself as 'Upward Saver Bank Corporation,' a fabricated financial entity designed to deceive users into disclosing credentials or transferring assets. No explicit drainer kit signatures have been identified, but the infrastructure aligns with phishing campaigns leveraging fake banking interfaces to exploit trust in legitimate brands. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on May 20, 2025, through NameSilo, LLC, and currently resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, providing a veneer of legitimacy. VirusTotal reports 0/95 detections, indicating no antivirus engines have flagged the domain as malicious at this time. No entries exist in Google Safe Browsing or major blocklists, though this absence of detection does not preclude active fraudulent activity. The domain remains active and under investigation, with no takedown or sinkholing measures implemented as of this assessment. Users are advised to treat any interaction with upwardsaverbc.com as high-risk, particularly if solicited via email, social media, or advertisements. Organizations should monitor for references to this domain in logs or network traffic and consider proactive blocking of the IP 188.114.97.3. Given the zero-detection status on VirusTotal, reliance on traditional security tools may be insufficient; manual verification of financial or DeFi-related domains is recommended. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 8/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: 3257ded4a836d1bb698b9519e1fb77ae99508acda2138323762f74825feeab45 ## 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/upwardsaverbc.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=upwardsaverbc.com 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.
