16423.xyz Safety Check — Phishing Detected

Domain 16423.xyz is currently listed as active malicious infrastructure associated with generic phishing. The domain resolves to IP 103.27.177.163 and returns HTTP 200, indicating a live web service. Registration information shows the domain was created through Dynadot Inc, and its authoritative DNS is served by a4.share-dns.com and b4.share-dns.net. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy feed, confirming that threat‑intelligence sources have identified it as abusive. VirusTotal scans have resulted in five of ninety‑one security vendors flagging the host, providing additional corroboration of malicious intent. No further details about the hosted content, targeted brand, or phishing kit have been disclosed, so the precise lure remains unknown. Defenders should add 16423.xyz and its resolved address 103.27.177.163 to outbound allow‑list exclusions and inbound block rules, monitor DNS queries for the associated nameservers, and continue to track future detections from additional scanners. Ongoing observation is advised because the domain remains active and may evolve its payload or targeting.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      40417202f9d47a0049eaccabc13fa2ad3a8c38c4841c24711bd9602e753ead9a

## 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.
