# PhishDestroy threat dossier — usdintelligence.lat ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-23 08:07:04 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/usdintelligence.lat/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Investment Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 5/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Seclookup, Sophos Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: Dynadot LLC Nameservers: christian.ns.cloudflare.com, opal.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-04-02 Page title: $CHIP | USD AI ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-07-01 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 001c591ed0e73a7d7e9591be80cd941e57dd260ee0c8775739e56cd47734c9f6 ## 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: 2026-04-02 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-10 16:16:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-22 01:40:24 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 00:28:00 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d7787-718b-7434-a632-8a88ddd65424/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/usdintelligence.lat crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.usdintelligence.lat Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=usdintelligence.lat AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/usdintelligence.lat URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/usdintelligence.lat/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-10 16:17:39 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies usdintelligence.lat as a malicious domain actively engaged in cryptocurrency drainer operations, luring victims under the guise of financial intelligence services. The site masquerades as a legitimate source for USD financial insights while covertly siphoning cryptocurrency from unwitting visitors' wallets through deceptive transaction prompts. Security researchers note that drainer domains often employ urgent language, fake token approvals, and cloned interfaces to trick users into authorizing malicious transactions that drain assets directly from connected wallets. This domain exhibits multiple red flags consistent with such attacks, warranting immediate attention from users and security teams. This domain presents multiple technical indicators of compromise that solidify its malicious classification. VirusTotal analysis confirms detection by 5 out of 95 security vendors, indicating moderate but meaningful coverage despite its recent emergence. The domain was registered through Dynadot LLC on April 2, 2026, suggesting a deliberately planned campaign rather than opportunistic registration. It resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3 and has already been blacklisted by two security systems including ScamSniffer and Hagezi. Additionally, the domain utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate, while its recent creation date (April 2, 2026) indicates a very recent deployment in the threat landscape. These combined factors elevate the risk level to 'active' and warrant urgent defensive action. Users who have visited this domain should immediately disconnect any cryptocurrency wallets or browser extensions and revoke any transaction approvals made while on the site. Clear browser cache and cookies, then run a full antivirus scan using updated definitions. If any cryptocurrency was transferred out, file incident reports with relevant blockchain explorers, wallet providers, and local law enforcement cybercrime units. Organizations should block this domain at DNS and proxy levels using the IP address 188.114.97.3 and domain name usdintelligence.lat across all endpoints and network security systems. Monitor for any signs of lateral movement or additional compromise indicators across the network. Report this domain to threat intelligence platforms and update detection rules to prevent future exposures. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 0c38ccc76d7fd1e5ec76c6f0852253a0 TLS cert SHA-256: 001c591ed0e73a7d7e9591be80cd941e57dd260ee0c8775739e56cd47734c9f6 ## 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/usdintelligence.lat/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=usdintelligence.lat 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.
