# PhishDestroy threat dossier — api.www.en.patiobydesign.com
================================================================

Fetched:   2026-07-21 23:25:08 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/api.www.en.patiobydesign.com/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 54/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      8/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Fortinet, G-Data, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       GoDaddy.com, LLC
Nameservers:     ["ns1.dreamhost.com", "ns2.dreamhost.com", "ns3.dreamhost.com"]
HTTP response:   502

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-07-19 13:00:13 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-07-22 00:20:28 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-20 00:25:43 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

api.www.en.patiobydesign.com — Phishing Investigation Report

The domain api.www.en.patiobydesign.com is currently listed as an active generic phishing indicator. Automated analysis shows the HTTP endpoint returns a 301 redirect, a behavior commonly used to forward victims to credential‑harvesting pages. The domain has been blocked by the PhishDestroy feed and appears on one external security blocklist, confirming that at least one trusted source has observed malicious activity. VirusTotal records indicate that 8 of 91 scanned scanners flagged the domain, providing independent corroboration of its suspicious nature. No additional context such as the landing page content, targeted brand, or phishing kit has been published, leaving the exact payload and victim profile unknown. Because the domain remains active and is already referenced by multiple threat intelligence sources, defensive teams should add it to URL filtering rules, enforce DNS sinkholing where possible, and continue to monitor for any new resolution or payload changes. Further investigation, including sandbox retrieval of the final redirect target, is advised to clarify the phishing campaign’s tactics and objectives.

## 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.
