PhishDestroy threat report

Overview

works.montela.org is an impersonation phishing page that presents itself as the Ministry of Works and Housing of the Borno State Government in Nigeria. It sits on a subdomain of montela.org, which has no connection to any official government domain. That makes it a trap for people who expect to deal with a state ministry. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-19, and the page was still online with its content live as of 2026-10-19.

How the scam works

The page carries the title "Ministry of Works and Housing | Borno State Government" to borrow the authority of a public body. Fake ministry sites like this usually target people hoping for public works contracts, housing allocations or government jobs. They push visitors to submit personal details, upload identity documents, or pay "registration", "processing" or "tender" fees that never lead to anything real. Victims can lose that money and hand over identity data that is later reused for further fraud.

Evidence

Six of 91 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain when it was checked on 2026-09-29: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, SOCRadar and VIPRE. That is a modest count. It still means several vendors reached the same conclusion independently, from both reputation feeds and web-filtering products. Spamhaus lists the domain on its DBL as spam, and PhishDestroy carries it on its own blocklist.

Infrastructure

The parent domain was registered on 2025-05-28 through TuringSign Inc. d/b/a Cosmotown. That was roughly sixteen months before PhishDestroy detected the ministry page, so the domain was not freshly bought for this campaign. The site is hosted on the NEW DHAKA HARDWARE network in the US, far from the Nigerian state it claims to represent. Placing a government lookalike on a subdomain of an unrelated name lets the operator spin up new themed pages without registering new domains.

What to do

Do not submit forms, documents or payments through this site. If you paid a fee, contact your bank or payment provider immediately to dispute the charge, and keep receipts and any messages that sent you there. If you uploaded an ID or personal details, watch for identity misuse and report the incident to the relevant Nigerian authorities and to the Borno State Government through its verified channels. Change any password you entered. Security teams should block montela.org and its subdomains and report the page to the hosting provider and registrar.

Empfehlungen und Ratschläge für Betroffene

Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.

Was soll ich sofort tun?

Dringend

Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.

  • Alle Passwörter ändern — E-Mail, Exchange-Konten, alles, wofür dasselbe Passwort verwendet wird
  • 2FA aktivieren mit einer Authentifizierungs-App (nicht per SMS). Deaktivieren Sie die SMS-basierte Wiederherstellung
  • Karten einfrieren Falls Sie auf der Phishing-Seite Ihre Bankdaten eingegeben haben

Welche Informationen sollte ich für meinen Bericht sammeln?

FBI-Richtlinien

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.
  • Genaue Daten und Uhrzeiten — jeder Transaktion und des ersten Kontakts mit dem Betrüger
  • Screenshots — betrügerische Websites, Chat-Nachrichten, E-Mails, Wallet-Transaktionen, soziale Medien
  • Alle URLs und Domains die der Betrüger verwendet (einschließlich works.montela.org)
  • Kommunikation — E-Mails, SMS, Telefonnummern, Benutzernamen, die der Betrüger verwendet hat

Auch wenn dir nicht alle Details bekannt sind — trotzdem Anzeige erstatten. Auch unvollständige Informationen sind für die Ermittlungen hilfreich.

Wo soll ich den Betrugsfall melden?

  • FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (Meldestelle der US-Bundesbehörden)
  • Europol — Meldungen zu Cyberkriminalität in Europa (EU)
  • Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
  • Ortspolizei — sorgt für eine offizielle Dokumentation, auch wenn sie nicht sofort handeln können

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?

  • Gefälschte Websites — pixelgenaue Kopien legitimer Websites mit leicht abgeänderten Domains
  • Schweineschlachtung — über Wochen hinweg über Telegram, WhatsApp und Dating-Apps aufgebautes Vertrauen, dann wurde Geld gestohlen
  • Betrugsmaschen im Zusammenhang mit der Rückforderung von Geldern — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
  • Durch KI gestützte Betrugsmaschen — Deepfakes, automatisiertes Phishing und KI-generierte Websites, die es erschweren, Betrugsversuche zu erkennen

Wie kann ich mich in Zukunft schützen?

  • Offizielle Websites als Lesezeichen speichern — Klicken Sie niemals auf Links in E-Mails, Direktnachrichten oder Anzeigen
  • Domains überprüfen — nachsehen, ob PhishDestroy Bevor Sie Kontakt aufnehmen: Überprüfen Sie HTTPS, die Rechtschreibung und das Alter der Domain.
  • „Zu schön, um wahr zu sein“ = Betrug — garantierte Renditen, Prominente als Werbeträger, dringende Fristen

About this reportSources, observation dates and corrections

This report combines saved page captures, registration and network records, scanner results and PhishDestroy reporting history. Each source keeps its own observation date. Open a source report to inspect the original result.

A capture documents what was shown. A scanner result records that provider’s assessment at the time of its check. Neither a valid certificate nor a zero-detection result is a guarantee of safety.
