# PhishDestroy threat dossier — apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-31 08:20:13 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 59/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, Sophos, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.166.132.94 (CA, Toronto) ASN: ASAS14061 DIGITALOCEAN-ASN - DigitalOcean, LLC, US Hosting org: AS14061 DigitalOcean, LLC Registrar: Surge.sh Nameservers: NS_NOT_FOUND Registered: 2026-06-22 Page title: Unavailable HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Sectigo Limited / Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36 Expires: 2026-12-16 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 97b6f955e414ca95a3c57ecae57c2cba8532736157112d6cc11f56a5a790058a Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - surge.sh ## 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: 2026-06-22 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-22 23:38:32 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-31 08:20:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-21 03:25:53 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ef144-21f0-708f-bb9c-f466a6c7f49e/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 15:26:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh: Fake Login Portal Confirmed in This domain, apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh, is flagged as a high-risk fake login portal designed to harvest user credentials. Analysis indicates the site mimics legitimate authentication pages, tricking visitors into entering sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and potentially multi-factor authentication codes. The infrastructure supports rapid credential exfiltration, with backend systems likely configured to relay stolen data to attacker-controlled servers for immediate exploitation or resale on underground markets. The threat extends beyond individual compromise, as stolen credentials may enable further attacks, including account takeovers, financial fraud, or lateral movement within corporate networks. Infrastructure analysis reveals concrete indicators of malicious activity. The domain resolves to IP address 188.166.132.94, hosted on AS14061 (DigitalOcean, LLC) in Canada, and is registered through Surge.sh, a platform often abused for rapid deployment of phishing pages. VirusTotal reports 4 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while one security blocklist has already listed it. The SSL certificate, issued by Sectigo Limited under the Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R3, provides a veneer of legitimacy but does not mitigate the underlying threat. No creation date is publicly available, but the domain remains active and unblocked by most security controls, increasing its potential reach. Users who have visited apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh or entered credentials on the site should take immediate action. First, revoke any sessions associated with the compromised account and reset passwords using a secure, unrelated device. Enable multi-factor authentication if not already active, and monitor accounts for unauthorized activity, including login attempts, password changes, or unfamiliar transactions. If corporate credentials were exposed, notify internal security teams to assess potential lateral movement risks. Additionally, scan the device used to access the site for malware, as phishing pages may deploy secondary payloads. Finally, report the domain to relevant security teams or threat intelligence platforms to aid in broader mitigation efforts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 97b6f955e414ca95a3c57ecae57c2cba8532736157112d6cc11f56a5a790058a ## 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/apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=apply-tick-easy-getfree.surge.sh 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.
