Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain wagyuw.xyz is identified as a high-risk generic phishing site. The domain claims to offer a private cross-chain bridge service, potentially leveraging the Wagyu brand to attract unsuspecting users. No specific drainer kit or additional malicious tools have been identified in the initial analysis, but the domain's activities suggest a sophisticated phishing operation designed to steal user credentials or cryptocurrency. Infrastructure analysis reveals that wagyuw.xyz has been flagged by 7 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating a moderate level of detection. The domain is registered through Spaceship, Inc. and resolves to the IP address 185.165.169.123. It was created on January 13, 2026. The domain has also been listed in one threat intelligence pulse on AlienVault OTX, further corroborating its malicious nature. The Google Safe Browsing (GSB) status is not explicitly mentioned, but the presence in threat intelligence and VirusTotal suggests it may be marked as unsafe. The domain is currently active and poses a significant risk to users who may interact with it. Immediate response actions include blocking the domain at the network level and educating users about the risks of visiting unverified cross-chain bridge services. Despite the domain being flagged by a minority of security vendors, the remaining risk is high due to the potential for credential theft and financial loss. Continuous monitoring and updating of blocklists are recommended to mitigate this threat. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: cd9f7c8720086c3f29ccf3c9a8c8e49d TLS cert SHA-256: 4b0166cc970804c9885c15b5bf1a3341bd6a5eb7c45002e0c07ef2dc5280ab84 ## 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 (operator 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/wagyuw.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=wagyuw.xyz 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
