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: 2025-08-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-08-15 02:55:15 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-27 04:53:45 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-15 06:12:04 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/0198ac4b-c9cb-74cc-b5c7-e6342d96d51a/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/apptool.site crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.apptool.site Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=apptool.site AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/apptool.site URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/apptool.site/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 02:17:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies apptool.site as a low-risk generic phishing domain. The domain is used to deceive users into divulging sensitive information through fraudulent means. While the threat level is currently low, vigilance is advised to prevent potential credential theft or data compromise. The domain apptool.site resolves to the IP address 103.224.182.242 and was registered on August 12, 2025, via ABOVE.COM PTY LTD. It remains active and appears on four security blocklists. VirusTotal analysis indicates minimal detection, flagged by only one out of 95 security vendors, suggesting this domain is relatively new or under limited scrutiny. Currently active, apptool.site should be treated with caution. Users are recommended to avoid interacting with unsolicited links or requests originating from this domain. Organizations should consider adding apptool.site to internal blocklists and monitor for any unusual activity related to it to mitigate potential phishing risks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: b965644ed462a20eb619268284787a4abb2a026fec5cd3c44554242a70a3880a ## 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/apptool.site/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=apptool.site 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.
