Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, xrpl-distributions.live, is flagged as a high-risk generic phishing threat and remains active as of July 12, 2026. Analysis of known intelligence reveals several concrete indicators supporting this assessment. The domain was registered on July 10, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar associated with high volumes of malicious registrations. It resolves to IP 188.114.97.3, hosted by CloudFlare, Inc. in Canada, and uses Cloudflare nameservers (ada.ns.cloudflare.com and will.ns.cloudflare.com). VirusTotal reports 4 of 91 security vendors flagging the domain, and it appears on three security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), and the site responds with HTTP status 200, indicating it is live and serving content. Detected technologies include Cloudflare Browser Insights, Cloudflare, and HTTP/3. The exact content of the site has not been analysed, so the specific brand or page visuals are unknown; however, the domain name suggests a connection to XRP Ledger distributions, a common lure for cryptocurrency-related phishing. Defenders should treat this domain as confirmed malicious based on the registration recency, blocklist presence, and security vendor flags. Recommended actions include blocking the domain at DNS and web proxy levels, monitoring for related subdomains or IPs, and alerting users to avoid interaction. No further intelligence on the phishing kit, target brand, or page structure is available at this time. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260713-69DB55 TLS cert SHA-256: 2afa5a46268b3ddf1c7e0764079b2471df2dba12adda9034d8e15447d4a8b782 ## 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/xrpl-distributions.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=xrpl-distributions.live 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.
