# PhishDestroy threat dossier — assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-30 19:36:30 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 95/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, CRDF, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Webroot URLQuery: -1 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 198.12.66.123 (US, Buffalo) ASN: ASAS36352 AS-COLOCROSSING, US Hosting org: AS36352 HostPapa Registrar: Entrust Domains, LLC Nameservers: ["ns1.afternic.com", "ns2.afternic.com", "verification-d3jclucsp89ganyqbydeny.ns101.verify.hn"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Home - AssetsPilots HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:21:56 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-02-26 23:21:56 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-30 20:21:12 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/01989c49-6cc7-71f4-a89b-573315ce76b0/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-24 00:20:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com Phishing Intelligence Report - PhishDestroy The domain assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com presents a page titled "Home - AssetsPilots," suggesting a website related to asset management or investment services. The threat posed is likely a fraudulent investment or phishing scheme, as the site is flagged for malicious activity and lacks security measures. Technical evidence shows the domain has 3 out of 95 VirusTotal detections, flagged by alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, and Webroot, and appears on 1 blocklist. It is registered with Entrust Domains, LLC, hosted on IP 198.12.66.123 in the US under AS36352 HostPapa, and was created on 2026-02-21. No SSL certificate is present, and nameservers include ns1.afternic.com and ns2.afternic.com. The site is currently down or offline, with a GridinSoft trust score of 0 out of 100 and a DOM risk score of 56, indicating a high-risk, untrustworthy domain. The overall risk level is elevated due to the recent creation date, lack of encryption, and multiple security flags. ## 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/assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=assetspilots.com.avkresearch.com 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.
