18162.xyz Fake Brand Alert

The domain 18162.xyz is currently active and flagged for social engineering by Google Safe Browsing. It is also blocked by PhishDestroy, indicating a high risk of phishing. The domain is registered through GMO Internet Group, Inc. d/b/a Onamae.com and is supported by the nameservers a8.share-dns.com and b8.share-dns.net. Analysis indicates that the domain is accessible with an HTTP status of 200, suggesting it is operational and potentially being used for malicious activities. While the exact content of the domain has not been analyzed, the presence of social engineering flags and the block by PhishDestroy suggests that the site may be attempting to deceive users into divulging sensitive information. Defenders should monitor traffic to this domain and consider blocking it to prevent potential phishing attacks. The domain appears on one security blocklist, further reinforcing the need for caution. It is advised that users do not engage with or provide any personal data to this site.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      6cdef2f58d755294375667ebadd8bcbb664bf6fff97785bf513a3af4f7b9bf33

## 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.
