Intelijen Keamanan Jaringan Registrar context
Registrar contextTrustname
Stored registration data identifies Trustname / Fewmoretaps OÜ (IANA 4318) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains a separate registrar investigation; that material is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
pdf-exploit.com presents itself as "PDF Exploit - EXE to PDF Converter," a tool that supposedly hides executable programs inside PDF documents. PhishDestroy classifies it as an impersonation phishing page. Its audience is people shopping for offensive tooling, including would-be attackers and the curious. We first flagged the domain on 2026-09-05, and it was still online with live content on 2026-10-19.
How the scam works
The page title advertises a malware-building service, while our classification is impersonation phishing. Pages like this rely on a simple bet: anyone searching for an exploit builder is unlikely to complain to anyone when the product turns out to be fake. Victims are typically asked to pay, often in cryptocurrency, for a license or download. They then receive nothing, or they receive a file that compromises their own machine. The buyer's money is lost, and any download can expose their device, saved passwords and wallets.
Evidence
On 2026-09-18, VirusTotal showed 7 of 89 engines flagging the domain. The vendors were alphaMountain.ai, Bfore.Ai PreCrime, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar and Webroot. That is a modest count, but these vendors work independently and include both reputation feeds and predictive engines, which makes their agreement meaningful. The domain also appears in 4 AlienVault OTX pulses, so other researchers have tracked it as well. Among blocklists, it is currently listed by PhishDestroy.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-05-09 through Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com, roughly four months before we detected it. That gap suggests the site ran quietly for some time before anyone flagged it. Traffic passes through Cloudflare, Inc., with the serving address geolocated to Canada. Because of this, the origin server's real location is hidden behind the proxy.
What to do
If you paid this site, treat the money as gone and report the transaction to your payment provider or the exchange you sent funds from. Do not open any file downloaded from the site. If you already ran one, disconnect the machine, scan it with up-to-date security software, and move any cryptocurrency from wallets on that device to a fresh wallet created elsewhere. Then change your passwords and enable 2FA from a separate, clean device. Defenders should block the domain at DNS and proxy level and review logs for visits or downloads from it.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.

After a phishing incident
Rekomendasi & Saran bagi Para Korban
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
Apa yang harus saya lakukan segera?
Mendesak
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Ubah semua kata sandi — email, akun Exchange, apa pun yang menggunakan kata sandi yang sama
Aktifkan 2FA menggunakan aplikasi otentikator (bukan SMS). Nonaktifkan pemulihan berbasis SMS
Kartu pembeku jika Anda telah memasukkan detail perbankan di situs phishing tersebut
Informasi apa saja yang sebaiknya saya kumpulkan untuk laporan saya?
Pedoman FBI
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Tanggal dan waktu yang tepat — dari setiap transaksi dan kontak pertama dengan penipu
Tangkapan layar — situs web penipuan, pesan obrolan, email, transaksi dompet digital, media sosial
Semua URL & domain digunakan oleh penipu (termasuk pdf-exploit.com)
Komunikasi — email, pesan teks, nomor telepon, dan nama pengguna yang digunakan oleh penipu tersebut
Meskipun kamu belum mengetahui semua detailnya — tetap saja ajukan laporan. Informasi yang tidak lengkap tetap dapat membantu penyelidikan.
Ke mana saya harus melaporkan penipuan ini?
FBI IC3 — Pusat Pengaduan Kejahatan Internet (Laporan tingkat federal AS)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Polisi setempat — membuat catatan resmi, meskipun mereka tidak dapat bertindak segera
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
Situs web palsu — salinan yang persis sama dengan situs asli, dengan domain yang sedikit diubah
Pemotongan babi — kepercayaan yang dibangun selama beberapa minggu melalui Telegram/WhatsApp/aplikasi kencan, lalu uangnya dicuri
Penipuan pemulihan — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
Penipuan yang didukung oleh kecerdasan buatan — deepfakes, serangan phishing otomatis, dan situs yang dihasilkan oleh kecerdasan buatan (AI) yang membuat penipuan semakin sulit dideteksi
Bagaimana cara saya melindungi diri di masa depan?
Tandai situs resmi — jangan pernah mengklik tautan dari email, pesan langsung (DM), atau iklan
Memverifikasi domain — periksa PhishDestroy Sebelum berinteraksi. Periksa HTTPS, ejaan, dan usia domain
"Terlalu bagus untuk jadi kenyataan" = penipuan — imbal hasil yang dijamin, dukungan dari selebriti, tenggat waktu yang mendesak
