Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] vote-zebec.network has been categorized as a generic phishing domain designed to function as a crypto drainer. This infrastructure specifically impersonates Zebec Protocol, a known DeFi protocol, in an attempt to trick users into connecting their cryptocurrency wallets and approve malicious token transfers. The domain leverages a spoofed interface and prompts for wallet connections under the guise of legitimate DeFi operations. Security telemetry confirms this setup is part of a wider campaign targeting users of decentralized finance platforms. Forensic analysis reveals several hard indicators of compromise. The domain was registered on April 23, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. It resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3 and uses a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. VirusTotal detection stands at 1 out of 95 security vendors as of the latest scan. The domain remains unblocked by Google Safe Browsing, indicating it has not yet been widely flagged by major browsers. Additional threat intelligence suggests this domain is part of a growing cluster associated with wallet-draining kits. As of today, vote-zebec.network is assessed as an active and elevated threat. Immediate response measures include blocking the domain at the DNS and network level, flagging the associated IP and SSL certificate, and updating browser-based blocklists. While detection signatures are improving, the risk remains elevated due to the domain’s recent registration and low initial detection rate. Users are strongly advised to avoid visiting this domain and verify any Zebec-related links using official channels or PhishDestroy’s real-time checks. The current risk profile reflects a high potential for financial loss if users interact with this site. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260423-96AB4C Favicon MD5: 39a7dd9ba91f89a74e0a4bfb0d4266dd TLS cert SHA-256: 913e87dbe5bab3b7de5deaa3d11ca196088d7bda1720c7e38f0ea11fc0526800 ## 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/vote-zebec.network/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=vote-zebec.network 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.
