# PhishDestroy threat dossier — walletchecks.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-26 04:10:24 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/walletchecks.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 57/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: CRDF, Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- ASN: ASAS395000 DELUXE-DEC, US Registrar: Hostopia Canada Corp Nameservers: dns2.register.com, dns1.register.com Registered: 1998-08-07 Expires: 2026-08-06 Page title: www.checksunlimited.com HTTP response: 301 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: GlobalSign Extended Validation CA - SHA256 - G3 Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 1998-08-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-11-18 07:15:58 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-26 04:21:38 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 15:27:35 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019a8141-0c8f-77bb-9a68-120b7bf85838/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/walletchecks.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.walletchecks.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=walletchecks.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/walletchecks.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/walletchecks.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-27 04:09:09 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is walletchecks.com a Crypto Drainer Scam Site? This domain, walletchecks.com, is identified as a crypto_drainer, a type of malicious infrastructure designed to siphon cryptocurrency from connected wallets. The domain is currently offline, but prior activity indicates it was actively targeting users through deceptive wallet verification prompts. No legitimate brand impersonation was confirmed, though the page title www.checksunlimited.com suggests an attempt to mimic financial or verification services. Analysis of walletchecks.com reveals multiple technical indicators of compromise. The domain is flagged by 2 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating detection by specialized cryptocurrency threat engines. It appears on one security blocklist and holds a trust score of 0/100, reflecting high-risk classification. Registered through Hostopia Canada Corp on August 07, 1998, the domain’s age does not correlate with legitimacy, as malicious actors frequently repurpose older domains to evade detection. Infrastructure analysis shows the domain was blocked by PhishDestroy, a system targeting phishing and fraudulent financial sites. Current status confirms walletchecks.com is offline, reducing immediate risk of direct interaction. However, the domain’s historical activity and technical indicators warrant caution. Users who previously interacted with this domain should immediately revoke wallet permissions, audit connected applications, and monitor transaction histories for unauthorized transfers. Security teams are advised to add the domain to blocklists and alert users to potential exposure. Given the elevated risk classification, any residual DNS or proxy traffic associated with walletchecks.com should be investigated for signs of compromise. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 2/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## 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/walletchecks.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=walletchecks.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
