PhishDestroy has added 500intal.com to its internal blocklist as a suspicious domain. The domain was first observed by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-20. No page title was captured during the analysis.
How the scam works
The domain is flagged based on multiple security vendor detections, but no specific malicious behavior has been observed, so a concrete scam type cannot be assigned. Visitors should treat the site as untrusted and avoid submitting credentials or personal data.
Evidence
VirusTotal reported 14 detections out of 92 scanning engines, with vendors such as alphaMountain.ai, DNS8, ESET, Emsisoft, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky and LevelBlue flagging the domain; the results were retrieved on 2026-10-20 and the scan was performed on 2026-10-12. Google Safe Browsing checked the domain on 2026-10-20 and did not flag it. PhishDestroy’s internal list marks the domain as malicious, while external blocklists showed no entries as of 2026-10-20, and OTX recorded four pulses mentioning the domain on the same date.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2023-02-08 through MainReg Inc., 1350 days before its first sighting by PhishDestroy. Network records show the domain resolving to IP address 188.114.96.1 at the time of analysis.
What to do
If you have entered any credentials or personal information on 500intal.com, change the associated passwords and monitor the accounts for unauthorized activity. Users should avoid interacting with the site and delete any downloaded files until they can be verified safe. Defenders should add 500intal.com to blocklists and monitor logs for traffic to 188.114.96.1, without extending blocks to the entire IP range or registrar.

After a phishing incident
Recommendations & Advice for Victims
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site
What information should I collect for my report?
FBI guidelines
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including 500intal.com)
Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used
Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.
Where should I report the scam?
FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
"Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
