# PhishDestroy threat dossier — att.drutb.cc ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-27 20:06:22 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/att.drutb.cc/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Brand Impersonation Targeted brand: x.com ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 21/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, Criminal IP, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, DNS8, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Google Safebrowsing, Gridinsoft, Lionic, MalwareURL, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Google Safe Browsing: FLAGGED Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 47.252.25.174 (US, Virginia Beach) ASN: ASAS45102 Alibaba (US) Technology Co., Ltd. Hosting org: AS45102 Alibaba (US) Technology Co., Ltd. Registrar: Dominet (HK) Limited Nameservers: ns7.alidns.com, ns8.alidns.com Registered: 2026-02-21 Expires: 2027-01-24 Page title: Welcome to nginx! ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Expires: 2026-04-25 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: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-01-27 15:10:08 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-07-27 20:21:29 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-09 01:17:08 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019bfff8-2253-7334-afef-d555bdb5fbe2/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/f7c9bcf8-7428-4441-8ed6-5124243f0ed1 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/att.drutb.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.att.drutb.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=att.drutb.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/att.drutb.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/att.drutb.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 20:45:01 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] att.drutb.cc — Brand Impersonation Phishing Domain Report This domain is flagged as a high-risk brand impersonation threat, specifically designed to mimic x.com and deceive users into disclosing authentication credentials. The infrastructure and content analysis confirm intent to replicate the targeted brand’s login interface, a common tactic in credential theft campaigns. The domain’s deceptive design and alignment with known phishing patterns elevate its risk profile significantly. Analysis indicates att.drutb.cc was registered on February 21, 2026, through Dominet (HK) Limited, a registrar frequently associated with abusive domains. It resolves to IP address 47.252.25.174, hosted under AS45102 (Alibaba (US) Technology Co., Ltd.), a network segment with a history of hosting malicious activity. The domain lacks an SSL certificate, a red flag for secure communication, and currently displays a default nginx welcome page, suggesting either a staging environment or a takedown in progress. Security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain 21 out of 95 times, while Google Safe Browsing explicitly labels it as phishing. Additionally, the domain appears on one security blocklist, further corroborating its malicious classification. Mitigation steps for this brand impersonation threat include immediate blocking of the domain and its associated IP address across all network security controls. Organizations should monitor for any attempts to access att.drutb.cc or similar domains mimicking x.com, particularly in web traffic logs and email filters. End-user education should emphasize verifying domain authenticity before entering credentials, especially for high-value targets like social media platforms. If the domain was accessed prior to takedown, affected accounts should undergo password resets and multi-factor authentication reviews to prevent unauthorized access. Network administrators are advised to scrutinize any connections to 47.252.25.174 or related Alibaba-hosted IPs for signs of compromise. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260127-4DD74B ## 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/att.drutb.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=att.drutb.cc 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.
