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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-18 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 15:35:32 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-28 14:14:12 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 20:15:19 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-29 00:18:17 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0e70-02fe-73ec-ac0d-ba2cbc86f6b0/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/eceb97f2-5513-4b5a-9773-6d67c4db9485 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/aib-cto.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.aib-cto.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=aib-cto.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/aib-cto.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/aib-cto.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 18:00:53 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain aib-cto.info is currently under investigation for potential credential theft activities. The registration details indicate no specific brand impersonation at present, and there is no evidence of a crypto drainer kit associated with this domain. The investigation focuses on its suspicious characteristics and potential threat profile. Technical indicators reveal that aib-cto.info has a VirusTotal score of 0 out of 95, suggesting that the domain has not yet been flagged by major security engines. It was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on June 18, 2026. The domain resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3 and currently appears on one security blocklist. There is no indication provided about its Google Safe Browsing status. Currently, aib-cto.info remains active, posing an ongoing risk of credential theft. The domain's presence on a blocklist suggests some level of recognition by security services. Continued monitoring and further investigation are recommended to assess any evolving threat or malicious activity. Users are advised to exercise caution and employ security measures such as URL filtering and monitoring of domain traffic to mitigate potential risks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-F2E1CD Favicon MD5: 7befa4b6bd7e4b9fb7e4c149e88534fa TLS cert SHA-256: eb9841cd261334a93cf3515e968dfc4aa330649b9e10a1277a2c7af01e8b35c6 ## 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 (volunteer 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/aib-cto.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=aib-cto.info 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
