## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
CRITICAL THREAT — DO NOT VISIT
Composite threat score: 83/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, SOCRadar
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      168.76.227.176 (HK, Hong Kong)
ASN:             AS137951 ASLINE LIMITED
Hosting org:     Free State Education Department
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

263by.com — Generic Phishing Investigation

The domain 263by.com is currently active and serves a page whose title reads "必赢 · Bwin 中国官方网站," indicating a possible attempt to masquerade as the Bwin China official site. Technical resolution points to the IPv4 address 168.76.227.176, and the domain is hosted on name servers ns1.domainnamedns.com and ns2.domainnamedns.com, both registered through NameSilo, LLC. An HTTP request to the host returns a 200 OK status, confirming that the site is reachable. Threat intelligence shows the domain appears on a single security blocklist and has been flagged by PhishDestroy, reinforcing its classification as a phishing vector. VirusTotal analysis reports that 2 of 91 security vendors have identified the domain as malicious, providing additional corroboration of its risk profile. The available evidence confirms the domain’s active status and its use in a generic phishing campaign, but details such as the specific phishing kit, payloads, or credential collection mechanisms have not been disclosed publicly. Defenders should block network traffic to 168.76.227.176 and add 263by.com to URL filtering policies. Monitoring for DNS queries to the listed name servers can aid in early detection of related infrastructure. Given the limited detection count, continuous scanning with reputable AV and sandbox services is advised to capture any evolving malicious components. Organizations using Bwin services should educate users about unsolicited login prompts and enforce multi‑factor authentication to mitigate credential theft risks.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       0787f9e936cd9c5339c94062b3b200b4
TLS cert SHA-256:      e8fd5123016082bd45603b75c7cc8c52b5677f457ff06ec4bf14bdf2dce823a8

## 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.
