21k.cc: Confirmed Generic Phishing Site Targeting Credentials

Analysis conducted on July 25, 2026, confirms that the domain 21k.cc is an active phishing infrastructure exhibiting high-risk characteristics. The domain is registered through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. and remains operational, returning an HTTP 200 status code, which indicates a live and accessible web resource. Infrastructure analysis reveals the use of Vue.js for frontend development and Apache HTTP Server for hosting, alongside HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) implementation, suggesting an attempt to present a technically legitimate appearance. The SSL certificate is issued by 泰尔认证中心有限公司, a Chinese certificate authority, which may not align with typical phishing domains that often rely on free or less scrutinized certificates. The domain is currently flagged by one security blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy, and is detected by 4 out of 91 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating cross-industry recognition of its malicious nature.

Nameservers are hosted under share-dns.com and share-dns.net, a pattern observed in other phishing campaigns leveraging shared DNS providers for resilience. No specific brand impersonation or scam type has been confirmed in the available data, and the exact content of the phishing page remains unanalyzed. However, the combination of active hosting, detection by multiple vendors, and inclusion on a dedicated phishing blocklist supports its classification as a generic credential-harvesting site. Defenders are advised to treat 21k.cc as a confirmed phishing domain and implement blocking measures at the DNS, network, and endpoint levels.

Organizations should monitor for connections to this domain in logs and investigate any associated user activity. Given the use of HSTS, users may be unable to bypass certificate warnings, increasing the likelihood of successful phishing if the domain is accessed. No evidence of takedown requests or registrar enforcement actions has been observed as of this report, and the domain remains active.

## 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.
