# PhishDestroy threat dossier — webuyemptyethereumwallets.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 14:39:04 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/webuyemptyethereumwallets.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 76/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Wallet Phishing Targeted brand: Ethereum ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: SOCRadar ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 92.112.189.86 (US, Boston) ASN: AS47583 Hostinger International Limited Hosting org: Hostinger International Limited Registrar: HOSTINGER operations, UAB Nameservers: ["ns1.dns-parking.com", "ns2.dns-parking.com"] Registered: 2026-04-13 Page title: Sell Empty Ethereum Wallets | Instant Wallet Value Scan ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-07-11 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: a78bf7d9ee15eb0495f0b9107140592b58c109b7b87eefe6d0ce86bc54553fd2 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - www.webuyemptyethereumwallets.com ## 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: 2026-04-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-13 03:42:33 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-13 00:43:31 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-22 07:40:18 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 02:23:41 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d8449-7711-74ce-8f7f-33d902e0c53d/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/847ee6f5-d102-431e-bdd9-837145f951a9 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/webuyemptyethereumwallets.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.webuyemptyethereumwallets.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=webuyemptyethereumwallets.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/webuyemptyethereumwallets.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/webuyemptyethereumwallets.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-13 03:42:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies webuyemptyethereumwallets.com as a malicious site masquerading as an Ethereum wallet service. Visitors risk having their cryptocurrency drained by a crypto-drainer hidden inside the site’s code. Unlike generic phishing pages, this domain specifically targets empty or low-balance Ethereum wallets to maximize theft while minimizing victim awareness. This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy’s seed-06718e pipeline with 0 detections on VirusTotal out of 95 engines checked. Domain registration records show the site went live on December 14, 2025, and is hosted on IP 92.112.189.86. The SSL certificate is issued by Let’s Encrypt, and the domain is registered through HOSTINGER operations, UAB, a common hosting provider abused by low-cost malicious operators. If you visited webuyemptyethereumwallets.com, immediately revoke any wallet connections via your wallet’s “connected apps” or “connected sites” menu. Do not approve any transactions you did not initiate. Scan your device with updated antivirus and consider rotating private keys or using a new wallet address. Report the domain to PhishDestroy using seed 06718e so other users can be warned. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260413-23D2D2 Favicon MD5: cbaba3d86f9bfbc9c1fa10278ea252de TLS cert SHA-256: a78bf7d9ee15eb0495f0b9107140592b58c109b7b87eefe6d0ce86bc54553fd2 ## 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/webuyemptyethereumwallets.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=webuyemptyethereumwallets.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
