# PhishDestroy threat dossier — wallet-trust.cc ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-14 18:33:40 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/wallet-trust.cc/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 69/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.142.138 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com Nameservers: cartman.ns.cloudflare.com, cortney.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-07-06 Expires: 2027-07-06 Page title: TrustCard - The Future of Credit Cards HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-10-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: f874b3d07ef5dcc87a7aa8a7e5e5ded1a36abf1ddeb8f588521f8abfcb90b70b ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-07-06 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-06 14:12:07 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-14 20:20:45 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f3756-3053-748d-99bf-4fab39c419aa/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/wallet-trust.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.wallet-trust.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=wallet-trust.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/wallet-trust.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/wallet-trust.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-06 14:16:26 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as a high-risk crypto drainer, specifically designed to siphon cryptocurrency assets from unsuspecting users by impersonating the legitimate platform NewsTrustApp. Crypto drainers operate by tricking victims into connecting their wallets to malicious smart contracts or scripts, which then execute unauthorized transactions, transferring funds to attacker-controlled addresses. The threat posed by wallet-trust.cc is particularly severe due to its active status and targeted deception tactics, which exploit trust in the impersonated brand to facilitate financial theft. Analysis indicates that wallet-trust.cc resolves to the IP address 104.21.79.60, a Cloudflare-associated endpoint that may obscure the true origin of the malicious infrastructure. The domain was registered on July 06, 2026, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, a registrar frequently exploited for fraudulent activities due to its low barrier to entry and minimal oversight. VirusTotal detection rates show that 3 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain as malicious, a relatively low ratio that may indicate evasion techniques or recent deployment. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, providing a veneer of legitimacy while failing to mitigate the underlying threat. No reputable blocklists or trust scores currently reflect this domain, suggesting it may still be in the early stages of broader detection. Mitigation against crypto drainers like wallet-trust.cc requires a multi-layered approach. Users should immediately cease all interactions with the domain and revoke any connected wallet permissions via blockchain explorers or dedicated revocation tools. Wallet software should be updated to the latest version to ensure protection against known vulnerabilities. Organizations and individuals are advised to implement strict allowlisting of smart contracts and domains, restricting wallet interactions to verified and audited platforms only. Network-level blocking of the domain and its resolving IP (104.21.79.60) can prevent access from internal systems. Additionally, monitoring for unusual transaction patterns or unauthorized access attempts is critical, as crypto drainers often leave traces in wallet activity logs. Security teams should prioritize educating users about the risks of connecting wallets to unfamiliar or unverified platforms, emphasizing the importance of verifying domain authenticity and contract addresses before any interaction. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: f874b3d07ef5dcc87a7aa8a7e5e5ded1a36abf1ddeb8f588521f8abfcb90b70b ## 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/wallet-trust.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=wallet-trust.cc 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.
