autocolourpaint[.]co[.]za

Analysis indicates that the domain autocolourpaint.co.za was registered on 13 September 2023 through Cybersmart Ltd and is hosted on a server in South Africa (IP 196.41.123.211). The web server identifies as Apache HTTP Server and presents a valid Let’s Encrypt certificate (R13). DNS resolution points to three MyWebServer nameservers (ns1‑ns3.mywebserver.co.za). The domain currently returns HTTP 403 Forbidden and its page title reflects this status, suggesting the front‑end may be intentionally concealed while backend services remain operational. An MX record is configured with the same host name, which is typical for credential‑phishing campaigns that aim to capture inbound mail. The indicator appears on one public blocklist and has been flagged by PhishDestroy. VirusTotal scans show 18 of 91 security vendors flagging the domain, reinforcing a high‑risk assessment. Defenders should add the domain and its IP address to network denial lists, monitor DNS queries for the associated nameservers, and consider sinkholing traffic to mitigate potential credential harvesting. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised as the site may become publicly visible if the 403 response is removed.
