# PhishDestroy threat dossier — usdt-qr.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 02:54:57 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/usdt-qr.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, CyRadar, Ermes, Fortinet, SOCRadar URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.56.47 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Sollutium EU sp. z o.o. Nameservers: ["milan.ns.cloudflare.com", "samara.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-04-08 Page title: Tether (USDT) QR Code Generator — Instant USDT Wallet QR Maker HTTP response: 429 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-07-07 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 59997d8bc209f8be31fbb856a07c2b951c0c95f2e4726ad085fa6356a3b2c751 ## 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: 2026-04-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-09 00:30:46 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-08 21:31:37 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-22 01:40:25 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-21 19:15:32 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) 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/019d6f00-77d8-750d-9fd4-7b3de53a095e/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/374325d0-76c7-459d-88ff-c1084593b0eb Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/usdt-qr.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.usdt-qr.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=usdt-qr.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/usdt-qr.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/usdt-qr.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-09 00:31:12 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies a live crypto-draining phishing site hosted at usdt-qr.com that masquerades as a legitimate USDT QR-code generator. This domain is engineered to trick visitors into scanning malicious QR payloads instead of genuine transaction codes, tricking wallets into approving unauthorized transfers that drain tokens without warning. This domain was flagged after rigorous analysis revealed zero detections on VirusTotal out of 95 engines (0/95), despite being newly created on December 11, 2025. The site resolves to IP 104.21.56.47 and is already blocked by ScamSniffer and Enkrypt. Registration was processed through SOLLUTIUM LLC using Google Trust Services SSL, giving it a deceptive veneer of legitimacy. If you visited usdt-qr.com, DO NOT scan any QR code shown and disconnect from the internet immediately. Check your crypto wallet for suspicious transactions or pending approvals, especially for USDT or other ERC-20 tokens. Clear any wallet approvals via tools like revoke.cash or your wallet’s built-in revoke feature, then run a malware scan. Report the domain to PhishDestroy and your wallet provider to help protect others from this drainer scam. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 6/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260408-21356F Favicon MD5: 99c10daad952643944ccca57d40dc197 TLS cert SHA-256: 59997d8bc209f8be31fbb856a07c2b951c0c95f2e4726ad085fa6356a3b2c751 ## 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/usdt-qr.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=usdt-qr.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.
