## Stored PhishDestroy analysis

Overview
PhishDestroy’s automated assessment classified ankerrgames.net as an impersonation phishing domain. The recorded page title was “AnkerGames » Free Pre‑installed PC Games - Download & Play”, which does not indicate impersonation of another brand. Intake recorded the domain on 2026-10-26 because it redirected, via an HTTP 301 response, to the confirmed phishing site ankergamers.com. PhishDestroy first observed the domain on 2026-10-27.

How the scam works
Impersonation phishing typically involves registering a look‑alike domain and using redirects or fake pages to capture credentials or other sensitive information from visitors who believe they are interacting with a legitimate service.

Evidence
VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-10-27 with 92 engines and reported zero detections. Google Safe Browsing checked the same day and did not flag the domain. Spamhaus DBL listed the domain as spam on 2026-10-27. OTX recorded four pulses referencing the domain as of 2026-10-27. PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist marked the domain as malicious. urlscan.io captured the redirect chain on 2026-10-27; its engine verdict flagged the redirect as malicious with a score of 84, while the overall verdict was non‑malicious.

Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-10-23 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. Recorded DNS records on 2026-10-27 listed A addresses 188.114.96.3 and 188.114.97.3 and AAAA addresses 2a06:98c1:3120::3 and 2a06:98c1:3121::3 served by Cloudflare nameservers kaiser.ns.cloudflare.com and suzanne.ns.cloudflare.com. The observed IP address was 188.114.96.3, belonging to the CloudFLARENET‑EU network in GB. A Let’s Encrypt certificate for ankerrgames.net was observed with validity from 2026-10-23 to 2027-01-21.

What to do
Users should avoid entering any credentials or personal data on ankerrgames.net or the redirected site and change passwords if they may have been submitted. Organizations should block the domain at the network perimeter, monitor outbound traffic to the redirect target, and follow standard phishing response procedures. Security teams can use the recorded IP, DNS records, and redirect chain to enrich threat intelligence and update detection rules.
