Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, bellonapoli.hostel.town, is currently under investigation for credential harvesting phishing activity targeting users seeking budget accommodations in Naples, Italy. The site mimics the legitimate Ostello Bello Napoli hostel brand, presenting a fabricated booking interface designed to capture login credentials, payment details, and personal information from unsuspecting travelers. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is actively soliciting sensitive data under the guise of a trusted hospitality service, posing significant risks of financial fraud and identity theft for visitors who engage with the site. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolves to IP address 172.86.104.14 and employs an SSL certificate issued by ZeroSSL GmbH, providing a false sense of security to potential victims. The page title, 'Ostello Bello Napoli - Naples, Italy,' precisely matches the legitimate hostel's branding, increasing the likelihood of successful deception. As of the latest scan, the domain has zero detections across 95 security engines on VirusTotal (0/95), suggesting the phishing infrastructure remains undetected by most automated systems. The domain's registrar and creation date are not publicly disclosed, limiting temporal attribution but indicating potential operational security measures by the threat actor. Users who have visited bellonapoli.hostel.town or entered any information on the site should immediately take corrective action. First, revoke any credentials shared with the site and enable multi-factor authentication on all accounts where the same credentials may have been reused. Second, monitor financial statements and credit reports for unauthorized transactions, as payment details may have been compromised. Third, report the incident to local cybercrime authorities and consider placing a fraud alert with credit bureaus. Organizations in the hospitality sector should proactively warn customers about this specific phishing domain and implement email filtering rules to block messages originating from or referencing bellonapoli.hostel.town. Network defenders are advised to block traffic to 172.86.104.14 and monitor for connections to this IP address as an indicator of compromise. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 10/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260702-1CE959 Favicon MD5: 8b82b402972f10d24edb90e234d4e23e TLS cert SHA-256: 67a97cd1381f6984c2c459990d9fa0599869b51cd80116585cb43067ba5f6a76 ## 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/bellonapoli.hostel.town/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bellonapoli.hostel.town 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.
