# PhishDestroy threat dossier — brandrancegradess.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-29 19:13:35 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/brandrancegradess.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 57/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: base (and: google) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/95 security vendors flagged this domain Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 163.61.188.5 (US, New York City) ASN: ASAS153568 NEWDHAKAHARDWARE-AS-AP NEW DHAKA HARDWARE, BD Hosting org: AS153568 NEW DHAKA HARDWARE Registrar: Cosmotown, Inc. Nameservers: dns1.lytehosting.com, dns2.lytehosting.com, dns3.lytehosting.com, dns4.lytehosting.com Registered: 2024-10-25 Expires: 2025-10-25 Page title: brandrancegradess.com HTTP response: 530 ## 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: 2024-10-25 (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: 2025-08-07 16:32:08 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-29 13:17:32 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/01988604-d3d1-73a4-9bcd-2598bd041f67/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/brandrancegradess.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.brandrancegradess.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=brandrancegradess.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/brandrancegradess.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/brandrancegradess.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 01:09:57 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies brandrancegradess.com as a domain associated with phishing risks, currently under investigation. Although no antivirus engines have flagged it yet, it appears on one security blocklist and is now offline. This phishing domain likely aims to trick users into revealing sensitive information by masquerading as a legitimate site. Users may receive deceptive messages or be prompted to input personal data, leading to potential identity theft or financial loss. If you visited brandrancegradess.com, avoid entering any personal details and monitor your accounts for suspicious activity. Running a malware scan and changing passwords can help mitigate risks. Always confirm website authenticity before sharing sensitive information. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: a1c11c766795b480a2037b18aff0e36048a16b6f88b9561bfd423b8bedbeaf19 ## 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/brandrancegradess.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=brandrancegradess.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
