# PhishDestroy threat dossier — withdrawal.transactionshield.info ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-17 13:45:03 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/withdrawal.transactionshield.info/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 91/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Trust Wallet ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/92 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.14.198 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: HOSTINGER operations, UAB Nameservers: ["nora.ns.cloudflare.com", "uriah.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-05-16 Page title: Transfer Trust Wallet ## 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: 2026-05-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-16 21:17:18 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-17 13:40:02 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-16 23:54:02 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e31fe-9d2b-725d-8062-e595738d012d/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/withdrawal.transactionshield.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.withdrawal.transactionshield.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=withdrawal.transactionshield.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/withdrawal.transactionshield.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/withdrawal.transactionshield.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-16 21:19:16 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Security researchers at PhishDestroy have identified withdrawal.transactionshield.info as an active crypto-phishing domain designed to mimic legitimate withdrawal interfaces and harvest user credentials. The domain resolves to IP 104.21.14.198 and is currently leveraging Google Trust Services SSL certificates to appear authentic, which increases the likelihood of user deception. Threat actors are known to rapidly deploy similar decoy portals to target cryptocurrency users during transactional workflows. This domain has been formally flagged by ScamSniffer and appears on a single security blocklist, indicating confirmed malicious activity. VirusTotal analysis shows 3 out of 95 participating security vendors have already marked the domain as malicious, underscoring its elevated risk profile. While the SSL certificate is issued by a reputable authority, the domain’s recent deployment and low detection rate suggest it is part of an emerging campaign rather than a well-established threat. Users who have visited withdrawal.transactionshield.info should immediately cease any ongoing interactions, avoid entering sensitive credentials, and scan their devices for potential compromise. If credentials were entered, rotate passwords immediately, revoke any API keys or withdrawal permissions associated with the account, and monitor for unauthorized transactions. Report the domain to your security team or platform for further action. Given the domain’s active status and SSL-backed appearance, heightened vigilance is strongly advised for anyone interacting with crypto-related web services. ## 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/withdrawal.transactionshield.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=withdrawal.transactionshield.info 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.
