Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is beaconlayer.co a Phishing Site? Analysis as of July 26, 2026 indicates that beaconlayer.co is an active malicious infrastructure used for generic phishing. The domain was registered on April 24, 2026 through Web Commerce Communications Limited dba WebNic.cc and is served by Cloudflare nameservers dee.ns.cloudflare.com and isaac.ns.cloudflare.com. DNS resolution points to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which is currently listed on a single security blocklist and has been blocked by the PhishDestroy feed. VirusTotal reports a single positive detection out of 91 scanned vendors, confirming at least one security product has identified the domain as malicious. No additional public threat intelligence sources such as OTX or Google Safe Browsing are referenced in the available data, and no SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, or page title information have been disclosed. Consequently, the confidence in the malicious classification rests on the registrar information, the active blocklist entry, the PhishDestroy block, and the VirusTotal positive. Defenders should treat beaconlayer.co as hostile and enforce network‑level deny rules for the domain and its resolving IP 188.114.96.3. Email filtering solutions should add the domain to blocklists, and DNS sink‑hole configurations may be used to intercept queries. Continuous monitoring of the IP reputation and periodic re‑scans on VirusTotal are advised to capture any changes in detection coverage. Until further forensic analysis of the hosted content is available, the domain should be assumed to be unsafe for users. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260726-E610D9 Favicon MD5: fa22073127bc89db8e1ef375d7859948 TLS cert SHA-256: ed6ecbbc805523f22aeaafe013cb265b7dc86d1bebd6503ed5064496a0bd5d02 ## 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/beaconlayer.co/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=beaconlayer.co 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.
