================================================================

Fetched:   2026-07-22 01:52:55 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/admin.sherlock.patiobydesign.com/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 54/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      8/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Fortinet, G-Data, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       GoDaddy.com, LLC
Nameservers:     ["ns1.dreamhost.com", "ns2.dreamhost.com", "ns3.dreamhost.com"]

## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-07-19 13:00:11 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-07-22 00:20:28 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-20 00:25:44 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

Is admin.sherlock.patiobydesign.com a phishing site?

The domain admin.sherlock.patiobydesign.com is currently classified as a generic phishing infrastructure with a high risk rating. Intelligence indicates the domain remains active as of the report date, July 19, 2026, and has been blocked by the PhishDestroy mitigation service. It appears on a single security blocklist, suggesting limited but confirmed exposure in threat‑sharing feeds. VirusTotal analysis shows that eight of ninety‑one scanning engines have flagged the domain, providing modest corroboration of malicious intent. The HTTP response for the host is a 301 redirect, a common technique used to conceal the final landing page or to route victims through intermediate infrastructure. No further details about hosting provider, ASN, or geographic location are available from the supplied data, and the page content has not been examined. Defenders should continue to block the domain at the network perimeter, incorporate its indicator into endpoint detection rules, and monitor for any related sub‑domains or payloads that may appear in future traffic. Ongoing observation is advised to capture any changes in detection counts or additional blocklist listings that could indicate an evolution of the campaign.

## 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.
