# PhishDestroy threat dossier — 121z2.catex.at ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-25 21:10:36 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/121z2.catex.at/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 19/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, LevelBlue, Lionic, MalwareURL, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 31.59.121.53 Registrar: Cloudbackbone HTTP response: 200 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-06-10 14:37:14 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-10 13:00:58 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-25 22:45:08 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-11 03:46:09 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019eb19c-4aa7-7103-a3fe-694d4e133917/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/e0e24e92-8c26-435b-8985-e55fc53b55f9 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/121z2.catex.at crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.121z2.catex.at Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=121z2.catex.at AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/121z2.catex.at URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/121z2.catex.at/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 22:01:30 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, 121z2.catex.at, is identified as a fake login phishing site designed to harvest user credentials. Analysis indicates it impersonates legitimate login portals to deceive visitors into entering sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, or other authentication details. The site does not host legitimate services and operates solely to capture and exfiltrate stolen data to malicious actors. Visitors are likely redirected here through phishing emails, fake advertisements, or compromised links, increasing the risk of account takeovers or identity theft. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators confirming its malicious nature. The domain is flagged by 19 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, a key metric indicating widespread detection as a phishing threat. It appears on at least one security blocklist and was registered through Cloudbackbone, a registrar occasionally associated with abusive domains. The domain resolved to the IP address 31.59.121.53, which may have hosted additional malicious content. Currently, the site is offline, but this does not eliminate the risk, as attackers often reactivate or migrate phishing infrastructure. If you visited 121z2.catex.at or entered any credentials on the site, immediate action is required. First, change passwords for any accounts accessed or entered on the site, prioritizing email, financial, and work-related accounts. Enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) where available to add an additional security layer. Monitor accounts for unauthorized activity, such as unfamiliar logins, transactions, or password reset attempts. If financial information was exposed, contact your bank or payment provider to report potential fraud. Run a full scan of your device using updated security software to detect any malware or keyloggers that may have been installed. Finally, report the domain to your organization’s security team or relevant authorities to aid in broader threat mitigation efforts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260610-918C09 ## 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 (volunteer 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/121z2.catex.at/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=121z2.catex.at 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
