## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-06 21:27:14 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies usdt-frontend-cku.pages.dev as an active fake USDT wallet scam posing elevated risk to cryptocurrency users. The site mimics legitimate Tether wallet interfaces to harvest private keys and seed phrases through credential-harvesting forms. Visitors risk irreversible asset loss if they input wallet information, as the threat actor behind this domain operates under the guise of a trusted service while exfiltrating sensitive data to external servers.  

This domain was flagged by 1 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating minimal detection despite malicious intent. It is registered through Cloudflare, Inc. and resolves to IP address 172.66.44.111, which is part of Cloudflare’s edge network infrastructure. The domain uses a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, giving it the appearance of legitimacy, but no independent trust score or blocklist inclusion data is publicly available at this time.  

To mitigate exposure to this scam, users should avoid accessing usdt-frontend-cku.pages.dev entirely. Never enter cryptocurrency wallet credentials, private keys, or seed phrases into web forms hosted on unfamiliar domains. Enable hardware wallet authentication, use bookmarked official URLs, and verify site certificates against known issuers. Report this domain to Cloudflare Trust & Safety and to relevant cryptocurrency scam databases to aid in wider detection and takedown efforts.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       cff90fc1e2b021e715882789ac83aff1
TLS cert SHA-256:      fd12d1617ae843a7e81b92af0f6fa99bb3947440262a1bf72111efbb28be5aeb

## 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.
