# PhishDestroy threat dossier — caffevergnano.xyz ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-27 21:59:24 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/caffevergnano.xyz/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 85/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Scam Targeted brand: across (and: apple, bank of america, facebook, google, instagram) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 12/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CRDF, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Google Safebrowsing, Gridinsoft, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 144.172.98.117 (US, Ogden) ASN: ASAS14956 ROUTERHOSTING - RouterHosting LLC, US Hosting org: AS14956 RouterHosting LLC Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Bank of America - Banking, Credit Cards, Loans and Merrill Investing ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: www.bankofamerica.com 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: 2026-02-26 23:24:08 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-02-26 23:24:08 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-27 20:21:10 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-09 12:44:01 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019bf2aa-91b5-72d9-b5ff-80e793c93a1e/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/caffevergnano.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.caffevergnano.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=caffevergnano.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/caffevergnano.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/caffevergnano.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-23 09:12:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is caffevergnano.xyz a Bank of America impersonation? Analysis indicates that the domain caffevergnano.xyz was registered on February 21 2026 and is currently inactive. The site was observed serving a page whose title matches the official Bank of America branding, specifically “Bank of America - Banking, Credit Cards, Loans and Merrill Investing”. The TLS certificate presented for the site belongs to www.bankofamerica.com, suggesting a deliberate attempt to leverage the legitimate certificate to increase perceived authenticity. The domain resolves to IP address 144.172.98.117, which is hosted in the United States under AS14956 (RouterHosting LLC). The infrastructure has been flagged by multiple security tools: VirusTotal reports 12 of 93 scanners detecting malicious activity, and the domain appears on at least one public blocklist. AlienVault OTX includes the domain in a single threat‑intel pulse, and PhishDestroy has listed it as blocked. The campaign was classified as a crypto scam, and the activity has been taken offline as of the reporting date. Defenders should continue to block the domain at network perimeter and DNS layers, monitor for any re‑hosting of the same payloads or similar certificate misuse, and consider adding the IP address to reputation lists. Because the site is no longer serving content, active probing is not possible, and the precise payload or victim‑interaction flow remains unknown; further forensic capture would be required to detail the phishing or malware delivery mechanisms. Until additional indicators emerge, the domain should be treated as high‑risk for brand impersonation targeting Bank of America customers. ## 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/caffevergnano.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=caffevergnano.xyz 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.
