On July 27, 2026 the domain gclidapis.com was registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. The zone is hosted on Cloudflare using nameservers pete.ns.cloudflare.com and poppy.ns.cloudflare.com and resolves to the IPv4 address 188.114.96.3. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and is presently listed as active by threat‑intel sources.
The blocklist entry is currently enforced by PhishDestroy, indicating that at least one downstream protection service is already filtering traffic to the address. VirusTotal reports that the domain has been scanned by 91 AV engines; none of the engines raised a detection, but the absence of a flag does not constitute a safety assurance. No public SSL certificate details, HTTP status codes, or page title information have been disclosed in the available intelligence, leaving the content of the hosted site unverified.
The limited attribution suggests a short‑lived infrastructure typical of opportunistic phishing campaigns that rely on rapid domain turnover and cloud‑based DNS. Defenders should continue to block the domain at the network perimeter, monitor outbound connections to 188.114.96.3, and add the domain to internal blocklists. Additional analysis of the web payload, TLS fingerprint, and any observed traffic patterns is recommended to confirm the threat vector and to assess whether the domain is part of a larger campaign.
