Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies uselesscoin.claims as a medium-risk domain associated with a crypto drainer threat. This domain was designed to target cryptocurrency users by deploying the Angel Drainer kit, aiming to steal digital assets under the guise of a legitimate token called "$USELESS Token." The domain resolves to IP 172.67.170.194 and was registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited on December 10, 2025. It appeared on four security blocklists and was flagged by 5 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, confirming suspicious activity. The presence of the Angel Drainer kit further supports the domain’s use for malicious crypto asset theft. Currently, uselesscoin.claims has been taken offline, reducing immediate risk to users. To mitigate exposure, users should avoid interacting with this domain or any related URLs and ensure their crypto wallets are secured with strong authentication. Monitoring for any unauthorized transactions is also recommended. PhishDestroy advises caution and vigilance when encountering similar suspicious crypto domains. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 12d41c591ebe97b958bc6c9960c30993 TLS cert SHA-256: cea5de592275c5ced4e8d7f7e72452f99ea7c80362b113e3e8a269ff399ccd77 ## 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/uselesscoin.claims/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=uselesscoin.claims 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.
