16845.xyz Used for Credential Harvesting – Block

On July 19, 2026 the domain 16845.xyz was observed serving HTTP 200 responses and resolving to the address 103.27.177.164. VirusTotal records show that 15 of 91 scanning engines flagged the domain as malicious, and it appears on at least one public security blocklist. The domain is currently listed as active and has been blocked by the PhishDestroy feed. Classification in the supplied intelligence labels the activity as generic phishing with a high risk rating. No public page title, brand, or specific phishing kit has been disclosed, so the exact content of the site remains unverified. The combination of a positive detection count, active HTTP service, and inclusion on a blocklist indicates that the infrastructure is being used to harvest credentials or otherwise deceive users. Defenders should add 16845.xyz to DNS and proxy blocklists, enforce outbound filtering for the associated IP address, and monitor for any traffic patterns that reference the domain. Continuous re‑scanning of the host and periodic review of threat‑intel feeds are advised to detect any changes in the payload or hosting configuration. Until further analysis is available, the domain should be treated as malicious and denied by security controls.

## 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.
