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 23:38:59 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-31 04:20:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-21 03:25:51 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ef144-7bda-7762-8002-d770e9babe2d/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/applyit-blue-badge.surge.sh crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.applyit-blue-badge.surge.sh Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=applyit-blue-badge.surge.sh AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/applyit-blue-badge.surge.sh URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/applyit-blue-badge.surge.sh/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-07 21:39:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] applyit-blue-badge.surge.sh — Phishing Investigation Report This domain, applyit-blue-badge.surge.sh, is identified as a high-risk generic phishing site. The threat posed by this domain includes the potential for stealing personal information, such as login credentials and financial data, from unsuspecting users who visit the site. Analysis indicates that 16 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal have flagged this domain as a phishing site. The domain resolves to the IP address 159.203.50.177, which is located in the Netherlands and is part of the DigitalOcean network (AS14061). The domain is registered through Surge.sh, and the SSL certificate is issued by Sectigo Limited. The site has been active and appears on one security blocklist, specifically being blocked by PhishDestroy. Google Safe Browsing also flags the domain as a phishing site. If a user has visited this domain, it is recommended to immediately change passwords for any accounts that may have been compromised and monitor financial statements for any unauthorized transactions. Additionally, users should run a full system scan using up-to-date antivirus software and consider contacting their network administrator or IT support to report the incident and seek further guidance. Visiting such sites can lead to the installation of malware or the theft of sensitive information. ## 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/applyit-blue-badge.surge.sh/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=applyit-blue-badge.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.
