Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies the domain valovct.icu as an active crypto drainer phishing campaign designed to trick users into connecting their crypto wallets to malicious smart contracts. The threat actor behind this domain employs deceptive tactics, such as mimicking legitimate login interfaces or crypto service branding, to harvest private keys or authorize unauthorized transactions. Once a victim interacts with the fake interface, the drainer silently transfers cryptocurrency assets to wallets controlled by the threat actor, often causing irreversible financial loss. This domain was flagged with a generic phishing threat type and remains under investigation due to its capacity to inflict significant damage to unsuspecting users. This domain exhibits multiple red flags that confirm its malicious nature. Registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, valovct.icu was created on April 30, 2026, and resolves to IP 178.16.52.249. Despite its recent creation, the domain hosts a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. At the time of analysis, valovct.icu evaded detection by 95 VirusTotal security engines, with a 0/95 detection rate. These characteristics suggest that the domain is either newly deployed or employs advanced evasion techniques to avoid immediate flagging. Given its low blocklist presence so far, it poses a high risk to users engaging with crypto-related services. If you have visited valovct.icu, immediately disconnect your crypto wallet from the site and revoke any unauthorized smart contract approvals through your wallet’s interface. Do not input any credentials or connect your wallet to unfamiliar domains. Use PhishDestroy to verify this domain and stay protected against similar threats. Report any suspicious interactions to PhishDestroy’s threat intelligence team to help disrupt ongoing campaigns. Stay vigilant and verify all domains before engaging. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 7/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260503-04A5FA Favicon MD5: 289ca844f56028a166ec70167eb7ec1d TLS cert SHA-256: b3844802ab43076ccf46b38bbfb556d2370f2bf31fe14a5741b8a586b1c845bb ## 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/valovct.icu/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=valovct.icu 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.
