No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-10 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-10 16:02:25 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-21 16:11:57 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d777a-fdb9-75ac-adad-9d8516512d6d/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/vip-api.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.vip-api.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=vip-api.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/vip-api.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/vip-api.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-10 16:02:57 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies vip-api.pages.dev as an active crypto drainer domain under investigation for stealing cryptocurrency assets. The threat involves a malicious script designed to drain connected wallets upon interaction, posing severe financial risk to unsuspecting users. Technical analysis reveals this domain is part of a rapidly evolving campaign targeting crypto investors through deceptive API-themed lures. Such attacks often masquerade as legitimate services to trick users into connecting wallets, enabling unauthorized fund transfers. Immediate action is required to prevent asset loss. This domain was flagged with a risk level of "under_investigation" despite zero detections on VirusTotal (0/95 engines), indicating it evades detection through obfuscation or novel techniques. Registered via Cloudflare, Inc., it resolves to IP 172.66.44.126 and utilizes a Google Trust Services SSL certificate for deceptive legitimacy. The use of Cloudflare's Pages.dev infrastructure suggests an attempt to blend with legitimate development platforms while executing malicious activities. No historical blocklist entries were identified at the time of analysis, highlighting the domain's recency or evasion tactics. To mitigate risk, users must avoid interacting with this domain entirely, including clicking links or entering credentials. If exposed, revoke wallet connections immediately via blockchain explorers or wallet interfaces that support connected app management. Report the domain to PhishDestroy and crypto-focused threat intelligence platforms like ImmuneFi or Chainalysis Reactor to aid in takedown efforts. Enable hardware wallet confirmations for all transactions to add an additional layer of security. Monitor transaction histories for unauthorized activity and consider using wallet filters that block known malicious contract addresses. Share indicators of compromise (IPs, domains, wallet addresses) with security communities to prevent further victimization. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: b8674d5fe130f8f43554805243d306d25ad136dc634b2429ba26fa31c97bfdc2 ## 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/vip-api.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=vip-api.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.
