Hosting org: IP Vendetta Inc 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.

Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is 979216.com a Phishing Site? Analysis as of July 23, 2026 indicates that the domain 979216.com was registered through NameSilo, LLC on July 22, 2026. The authoritative name servers are chad.ns.cloudflare.com and dolly.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating the use of Cloudflare’s DNS service. DNS resolution returns the IPv4 address 91.92.35.67. The IP belongs to a hosting provider not identified in the supplied data, but the association with Cloudflare name servers suggests the infrastructure may be leveraging Cloudflare’s CDN or proxy services. The domain is currently listed on a single security blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy, which classifies it as a generic phishing site. No additional blocklists or reputation feeds have been observed. VirusTotal has processed the domain with scans from 91 antivirus and URL‑reputation vendors; none of the vendors reported a detection at the time of analysis. While the absence of detections does not constitute a safety guarantee, it aligns with the blocklist classification. The threat status is marked as active, and the risk level remains under investigation. No public page title, SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, Safe Browsing verdicts, or Open Threat Exchange (OTX) indicators are available in the current intelligence set, leaving the precise content and targeting of the site unconfirmed. Defenders should treat 979216.com as a high‑confidence phishing indicator based on its presence on PhishDestroy and recent registration. Recommended actions include adding the domain to outbound and inbound filtering rules, monitoring DNS queries for the associated IP address, and employing threat‑intel feeds that reference the domain. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised as additional telemetry, such as web payload analysis or user‑reporting, becomes available. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 84374b483762a734bf81f5bd067154185f27272149e00d21860dfc671cbc0c70 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/979216.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=979216.com Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
