No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-02 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-02 17:45:21 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-21 16:07:08 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d4ea5-8b89-779d-b77c-d952972913c1/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/validation-sync.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.validation-sync.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=validation-sync.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/validation-sync.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/validation-sync.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-02 17:46:32 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies validation-sync.pages.dev as an active phishing domain posing as a generic validation portal. The campaign is currently live and employs a generic phishing lure intended to harvest user credentials or personal information. No specific brand is known to be impersonated at this time, but the page’s design suggests a false authentication or account-validation interface. This domain was flagged by 1 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors on the day of analysis. It is registered through Cloudflare, Inc. and resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3. The domain utilizes a Google Trust Services SSL certificate for enhanced visual credibility. The page is hosted on Cloudflare Pages at validation-sync.pages.dev, which provides anonymity through Cloudflare’s proxy infrastructure. Current threat intelligence indicates elevated risk with no active blocklist entries beyond the single VirusTotal detection. The campaign is active and should be treated with elevated caution. Users are advised to avoid visiting or interacting with validation-sync.pages.dev and to report any suspicious exposure. Organizations should consider blocking the domain at DNS and network levels using the IP and domain indicators. If credentials or sensitive data were entered, immediately rotate passwords and enable multi-factor authentication where applicable. Monitor accounts for unusual activity and report potential compromise to relevant security teams. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: c499954e2d568151fa5459c1b50afb26683a44632ca8bfd6627b0649f50866a8 ## 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/validation-sync.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=validation-sync.pages.dev 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.
