# PhishDestroy threat dossier — x.wtn-market.cc ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-25 00:33:18 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/x.wtn-market.cc/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 91/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cloned_site Targeted brand: wethenorth ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 8/92 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, BitDefender, CRDF, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Sophos URLQuery: 2 detections ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.53.13 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: DYNADOT LLC Nameservers: kallie.ns.cloudflare.com, marvin.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-11 Page title: Wethenorth Market | Official Onion Links & Mirrors ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-06-13 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d362a51e91a09a79ef2bb7cc43eaf8c9a2813d99de46e7d500e9a31981930834 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wtn-market.cc ## 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: 2026-05-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-11 01:37:02 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-05-10 22:38:28 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-24 01:40:03 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-14 20:55:21 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/019e1407-836a-73b3-bc7f-868d9d027a50/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/b6cc7f64-d4d6-4156-b085-dc8fa2492f01 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/x.wtn-market.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.x.wtn-market.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=x.wtn-market.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/x.wtn-market.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/x.wtn-market.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-11 01:38:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies wtn-market.cc as a high-risk phishing domain that masquerades as Wethenorth Market, a legitimate Tor-based marketplace, to harvest user credentials and cryptocurrency. The page title 'Wethenorth Market | Official Onion Links & Mirrors' is intentionally misleading, tricking visitors into believing they are accessing the authentic service while directing them to a malicious replica designed for credential theft and financial fraud. This domain is part of an active campaign targeting darknet market users who rely on onion links for anonymity and security. Immediate avoidance is strongly advised to prevent account compromise and financial loss. This domain was flagged by 6 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating widespread detection as malicious. It was registered on July 24, 2025, through DYNADOT LLC and resolves to IP address 104.21.53.13. The site holds a valid SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services, which threat actors often exploit to lend false legitimacy to their fraudulent pages. Despite the SSL certificate, the domain lacks reputation on established blocklists and maintains low trust scores across threat intelligence platforms, further corroborating its malicious intent. To mitigate exposure to this threat, users should avoid accessing wtn-market.cc entirely and verify any onion links through official Wethenorth Market channels or trusted community resources. Organizations should block the domain at the network perimeter and update endpoint protections to include the domain and IP address in blocklists. If credentials or cryptocurrency were entered, users must immediately change passwords, revoke API keys, and report the incident to relevant authorities. Proactive monitoring of darknet market discussions can help identify similar campaigns before they gain traction. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260510-A01AFB TLS cert SHA-256: d362a51e91a09a79ef2bb7cc43eaf8c9a2813d99de46e7d500e9a31981930834 ## 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/x.wtn-market.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=x.wtn-market.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
