Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is xrp-flare-connection.org a phishing domain? Analysis of xrp-flare-connection.org shows a newly registered domain created on July 23, 2026 and currently active. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 45.67.136.10 and is hosted on nameservers ns1.srv-console.com through ns4.srv-console.com, all of which are managed by the registrar TuringSign Inc. d/b/a Cosmotown. Google Safe Browsing classifies the site as a social engineering threat, and PhishDestroy has already added the domain to its blocklist. VirusTotal reports that 7 out of 91 scanned security vendors flag the domain, indicating a moderate level of consensus among detection engines. The domain appears on a single external security blocklist, reinforcing its malicious reputation. No public TLS certificate details, HTTP status codes, or page title information are available at this time, and the content of the landing page has not been captured for analysis. Defenders should immediately block DNS resolution for xrp-flare-connection.org and any associated IP address (45.67.136.10) at perimeter firewalls and endpoint protection solutions. Continuous monitoring of the registrar’s WHOIS records and the four srv-console.com nameservers is advised, as changes may indicate additional malicious infrastructure. Network logging should be configured to alert on outbound connections to the listed IP, and threat‑intel feeds should be updated to include the domain’s identifiers to improve downstream detection. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260731-72FABF TLS cert SHA-256: 44c53e3fa2dc4d9b558a6732c9a8812dc773c805354d552de04f2f605ba56d21 ## 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/xrp-flare-connection.org/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=xrp-flare-connection.org 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.
