Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] 17043.xyz Safety Check — Social Engineering Phishing Detected Analysis of the domain 17043.xyz, conducted on July 19, 2026, confirms its classification as an active phishing infrastructure targeting users through social engineering tactics. The domain currently resolves to the IP address 103.27.177.164 and returns an HTTP 200 status, indicating operational availability. Google Safe Browsing has explicitly flagged the site for social engineering, a designation supported by detections from 15 of 91 security vendors on VirusTotal. While the exact content or targeted brand remains unconfirmed, the domain appears in one AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulse and is listed on at least one security blocklist, further corroborating its malicious classification. Defenders should prioritize blocking or monitoring access to 17043.xyz and its associated IP address, as the domain remains active and poses a high risk. The lack of additional context—such as the specific phishing kit, targeted brand, or victim demographics—limits granular mitigation strategies. However, the combination of vendor detections, blocklist inclusion, and Safe Browsing classification provides sufficient evidence to treat this domain as a confirmed threat. Organizations are advised to correlate logs for connections to 103.27.177.164 and review any user interactions with the domain to assess potential compromise. Further investigation into the domain's registration details or hosting provider may yield additional indicators for broader threat hunting. ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/17043.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=17043.xyz 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
