16050.xyz: Confirmed Phishing Site

Analysis of the domain 16050.xyz indicates active phishing infrastructure as of July 19, 2026. The domain resolves to the authoritative name servers a5.share-dns.com and b5.share-dns.net and returns HTTP status code 200, confirming that a web service is reachable. Registration data shows the domain was purchased through Dynadot Inc, a registrar frequently used for short‑lived malicious sites. VirusTotal scans have recorded detections from 16 of 91 security vendors, suggesting that multiple anti‑malware engines have identified malicious behavior associated with the host. The domain is listed on a single public blocklist and appears in one AlienVault OTX pulse, providing additional corroboration of its abusive use. PhishDestroy currently blocks the domain, reinforcing the consensus that it is being leveraged for phishing attacks. The specific payload, lure content, or targeted brand have not been publicly disclosed, so the exact phishing vector remains uncertain. Defenders should treat 16050.xyz as high‑risk: add the domain to DNS and URL filtering policies, monitor outbound connections for attempts to resolve or contact the host, and consider sharing the indicator with threat‑intel platforms to improve community detection. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as the site may evolve its tactics or host additional malicious resources.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      a26f1c7dc543b87774959185756788896d68187a3f1fb3a489673f71e37661c1

## 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 (operator 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.
