Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies bristolremit.us as a domain engaged in generic phishing activities. Classified under a medium threat level, this domain is designed to deceive users by impersonating legitimate financial services or remittance platforms. Its purpose is to harvest sensitive information such as login credentials or payment details from unsuspecting victims. Technical analysis reveals that bristolremit.us was registered on June 8, 2025, through NAMECHEAP INC, a popular domain registrar often used by threat actors due to its accessibility. The domain resolves to the IP address 198.18.0.254, which is a non-routable address commonly used in private networks or testing environments, suggesting attempts to mask the true hosting infrastructure. Notably, the domain appears on at least one public security blocklist, indicating that security vendors have flagged it as suspicious or malicious. Currently, bristolremit.us remains active and continues to pose a risk to users. PhishDestroy recommends network defenders and end users exercise caution by blocking or monitoring traffic to this domain. Immediate removal or blacklisting of the domain in organizational security layers is advised to prevent potential data breaches or credential theft. Continued monitoring will be necessary to detect any changes in the domain’s infrastructure or threat tactics. ## 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/bristolremit.us/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bristolremit.us 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.
