Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The risk level associated with xaodao.app is elevated, categorized specifically as generic phishing. This domain poses a direct threat by attempting to deceive users into providing sensitive information through fraudulent means related to the XRP Community Day. Detailed analysis presents multiple data points concerning xaodao.app. The domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3 and was created on June 27, 2026. Security evaluation via VirusTotal indicates that 2 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain, which is a significant indicator of its malicious nature. Furthermore, the SSL certificate for the domain is issued by Google Trust Services, underscoring its potential to appear credible while facilitating phishing attempts. To mitigate risks associated with this threat type, users should exercise caution and refrain from engaging with the domain or providing any personal information. Organizations should educate employees about the warning signs of phishing attacks, including domain discrepancies and suspicious URLs. Implementing robust email filtering and web blocking can also reduce exposure to similar phishing attacks. Regular training and updates on security protocols will contribute to a more secure environment against evolving phishing threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260701-87B068 Favicon MD5: 4bff9990c32401940cc317b2416c0606 TLS cert SHA-256: f84445f5d6b8e27a02d964bdf334eaa3cd2b5511b175ebd0259d35f2fc8b1ca7 ## 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/xaodao.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=xaodao.app 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.
