Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] A generic scam site, verify-restore[.]com, is currently taken down and offline. With a platform risk score of 100, it presents itself as a security check page. The site has a cloaking score of 2, indicating it actively evades security scanners. Registered through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu, it was hosted on IP 188.114.96.3 in San Francisco, US, under AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Created on 2026-06-18, verify-restore[.]com was first detected by PhishDestroy on 2026-06-20. According to VirusTotal, 13 of 91 vendors flag it as malicious, and it is listed on 3 public blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. Its SSL issuer is Google Trust Services. Defenders should update their blocklists to include verify-restore[.]com. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260620-B92D36 TLS cert SHA-256: 3a7251b8cd8d034fee1a951e86655058c53b2f3064214a57b012dec3eddf57cc ## 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/verify-restore.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=verify-restore.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.
