Is 197hp.com a Fake Hewlett-Packard Support Scam?

Analysis of 197hp.com as of July 19, 2026 identifies it as an active phishing domain targeting Hewlett-Packard (HP) users. The domain returns an HTTP 200 status, indicating a live server hosting content, though the exact nature of the page remains unconfirmed due to lack of full content analysis. One of 91 security vendors on VirusTotal flags the domain, and it is blocked by PhishDestroy, appearing on at least one security blocklist. No registration or hosting details are currently available to determine infrastructure ownership or geographic origin. Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk for credential theft or technical support fraud, particularly given its HP-related naming convention. Network-level blocking is recommended until further analysis confirms the site's removal or takedown. The domain's persistence despite limited detection suggests it may be operating with low visibility, potentially targeting specific regions or user groups. No evidence confirms whether this is part of a larger campaign or a standalone operation.

## 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.
