16818.xyz Generic Phishing Alert

Analysis of 16818.xyz shows an active generic phishing infrastructure. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 103.27.177.163 and returns HTTP status code 200, indicating a live web server. It has been flagged by the PhishDestroy blocklist and appears on one additional security blocklist, confirming that it is already known to security operators. VirusTotal reports that 16 of 91 scanning engines have marked the domain as malicious, reinforcing the suspicion of malicious intent. The risk level is assessed as high, and the domain remains active as of the report date, July 19, 2026. No further intelligence such as target brand, page content, or additional infrastructure details is currently available. Defenders should add 16818.xyz and its resolving IP address to network deny lists, enforce URL filtering policies to block access, and monitor outbound traffic for connections to the host. Continuous re‑scanning of the domain on multi‑engine platforms is advised to capture any changes in detection rates. Organizations using threat‑intelligence feeds should ensure the domain is included in their blocklist updates to mitigate exposure to this phishing campaign.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      6d8bfcc68ccb61549791ea6044cb9c6c452b2d260274c87798fd05a5988b9405

## 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.
