Is 898a138.com a Phishing Site?

The domain 898a138.com is currently classified as a high‑risk generic phishing infrastructure. Automated scans return HTTP 200, indicating that the web server is responding to requests. VirusTotal analysis shows that three of ninety‑one scanned security vendors have flagged the host, suggesting the presence of malicious components or suspicious behavior. The domain is listed on a single security blocklist and has been actively blocked by the PhishDestroy mitigation service, confirming that it is being used in ongoing phishing campaigns. Its status remains active as of the report date, July 19 2026, and no additional intelligence such as hosting ASN, geographic location, or associated malware kit has been disclosed. The limited visibility leaves uncertainty regarding the specific payloads delivered or the victim demographic targeted. Defenders should continue to block network connections to 898a138.com, incorporate the domain into intrusion‑detection and web‑filtering rules, and monitor outbound traffic for any attempts to reach the host. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised in case additional detections are reported by scanning services.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       1383544cf5f52e3d01c248ebaaf4e391
TLS cert SHA-256:      7228e22756b5a429aa700fbc574b9b8ef7c08ac71ba2bf9022d0095bfb1fee06

## 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.
