# PhishDestroy threat dossier — api-api.cc ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-21 18:51:19 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/api-api.cc/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 7/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 62.60.226.26 (DE, Frankfurt am Main) ASN: AS214351 FEMO IT SOLUTIONS LIMITED Hosting org: Femo IT Solutions Limited Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/namesilo-killed-our-twitter https://phishdestroy.io/xmrwallet-namesilo-exposed Nameservers: ns1.dnsowl.com, ns2.dnsowl.com, ns3.dnsowl.com Registered: 2025-05-08 Expires: 2027-05-08 HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-07-01 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 721914b53f2847174b049511a44c572668dddbd1a8fc48a18ab9b1b49106d2a2 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - www.api-api.cc ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2025-05-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-19 09:12:51 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-21 20:20:21 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-20 00:13:28 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f7937-ba30-70ea-9665-21864e4c59ce/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/api-api.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.api-api.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=api-api.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/api-api.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/api-api.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-19 09:13:06 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] api-api.cc Credential Harvesting Site The domain api-api.cc is currently active and has been observed resolving to the IPv4 address 62.60.226.26. Registration records indicate the name was created on May 08, 2025 through the registrar NameSilo, LLC. VirusTotal analysis shows that seven of ninety‑five security vendors have flagged the domain, suggesting malicious activity consistent with the generic_phishing classification. Infrastructure analysis reveals a single A‑record pointing to the same IP, with no additional hostnames or subdomains reported in public datasets. No public content analysis is available, so the exact look‑and‑feel of the site, the targeted brand, or the credential‑capture mechanism remain unknown. The combination of recent registration, use of a low‑cost registrar, and multiple security‑vendor detections warrants a high risk rating. Defenders should block outbound connections to api-api.cc and its resolved IP, add the domain to DNS‑based blocklists, and monitor network logs for any attempted connections. Threat‑intel feeds should be updated to include the domain and its associated IP, and incident response teams should be prepared to investigate any credential‑theft reports that reference this indicator. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 721914b53f2847174b049511a44c572668dddbd1a8fc48a18ab9b1b49106d2a2 ## 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/api-api.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=api-api.cc 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.
