No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-17 00:38:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-25 13:40:03 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e32b8-b43b-7159-a7a0-56084d37a682/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/apeterminal-restore.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.apeterminal-restore.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=apeterminal-restore.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/apeterminal-restore.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/apeterminal-restore.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-17 00:39:19 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies apeterminal-restore.pages.dev as a live credential-theft page disguised as an Apple account recovery portal. The site mimics Apple’s branding to trick users into entering their Apple ID and password, which are then harvested by the attackers. This is not a generic phishing scam; it is a targeted attempt to steal Apple credentials, potentially exposing users to financial fraud, unauthorized purchases, or device takeovers if the same password is reused elsewhere. This domain was flagged on Cloudflare Pages and resolves to IP 188.114.97.3 secured by a Google Trust Services SSL certificate. VirusTotal currently shows 0 detections out of 95 engines, indicating it has not yet been widely blacklisted. The site appears to be newly active, leveraging Cloudflare’s free Pages service to host the phishing content without immediate detection. Registrar data confirms Cloudflare, Inc. as the hosting provider, a common choice among threat actors for its anonymity and rapid deployment capabilities. If you visited this site, do not enter any credentials. Close the tab immediately and run a full antivirus scan. Change your Apple ID password from a trusted device using a verified link (appleid.apple.com), and enable two-factor authentication if not already active. Monitor bank accounts and iCloud-connected devices for suspicious activity. Report the domain to Apple and your network administrator to help block future access. Avoid clicking any links from emails or messages claiming to be from Apple unless you initiated contact and verified the source. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: f1a7d26f1024ea3ec25592768987a4d2 TLS cert SHA-256: 94b7ab7ce3e3d52256286e362af172ab3410267b651276d4a4da2d1e0f4f77be ## 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/apeterminal-restore.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=apeterminal-restore.pages.dev 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.
