Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] adspace-ads.com phishing site impersonates ad networks – July Analysis of adspace-ads.com as of July 19, 2026 indicates an active phishing domain targeting the digital advertising sector. The domain currently returns HTTP status 202 (Accepted), suggesting server-side processing or a waiting state commonly used in credential-harvesting workflows. Infrastructure records show the domain remains operational, with no takedown or sinkholing detected. A single security vendor, PhishDestroy, has flagged the domain on its blocklist, while aggregate scanning data from 91 security engines reveals no current detections at the time of this assessment. The absence of detections does not confirm legitimacy, particularly given the domain's recent appearance on a specialized phishing blocklist. Defenders should note that the domain's content and exact phishing mechanism have not yet been fully analyzed. The name 'adspace-ads' implies an attempt to mimic legitimate advertising networks or supply-side platforms, a tactic frequently employed to deceive publishers, media buyers, or ad operations personnel into entering credentials or payment details. No brand-specific targeting has been confirmed, and the phishing kit or payload remains unidentified. The registrar and hosting provider details are not included in current intelligence, limiting attribution at this stage. Recommended actions include blocking the domain at the DNS or proxy level, monitoring for connections from internal assets, and reviewing logs for any interaction with adspace-ads.com since its registration. Security teams should treat HTTP 202 responses as potential indicators of active phishing infrastructure and prioritize further investigation if user reports or network telemetry confirm exposure. Given the domain's presence on at least one reputable blocklist, defenders are advised to maintain heightened vigilance until additional analysis or takedown occurs. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 997d36adc2afe074537cd7ec77fcbd344a8aeccff19f2d7d590275ff80e4dfa6 ## 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/adspace-ads.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=adspace-ads.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.
