# PhishDestroy threat dossier — capitolelectrics.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-26 16:04:58 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/capitolelectrics.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 72/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 20/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, DNS8, ESET, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, MalwareURL, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, Trustwave, URLQuery, VIPRE AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 144.172.102.112 (US, Ogden) ASN: ASAS14956 ROUTERHOSTING - RouterHosting LLC, US Hosting org: AS14956 RouterHosting LLC Registrar: Wild West Domains, LLC Nameservers: ["ns1.bdm.microsoftonline.com", "ns2.bdm.microsoftonline.com", "ns3.bdm.microsoftonline.com", "ns4.bdm.microsoftonline.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Verifying your connection ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-05-31 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 7fd20cf02280628dc722931b6c1b41b204a14cd98486dad38785ea6b7a84deed ## 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: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-19 12:12:14 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-07-26 16:21:23 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-15 06:14:17 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c75ce-a0aa-757f-a174-4fbf246b553e/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/capitolelectrics.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.capitolelectrics.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=capitolelectrics.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/capitolelectrics.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/capitolelectrics.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 21:25:23 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] capitolelectrics.com credential theft site – avoid fake This domain is flagged as an elevated-risk credential theft operation targeting users through fake connection verification prompts. Analysis indicates the site masquerades as a legitimate login or security check page to harvest account credentials, likely for financial or corporate account compromise. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain capitolelectrics.com was registered through Wild West Domains, LLC on February 21, 2026, and resolves to IP 144.172.102.112, hosted under AS14956 (RouterHosting LLC) in the United States. The site uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate (R12) and displays a page titled 'Verifying your connection.' Security telemetry shows 20 out of 95 vendors on VirusTotal detect the domain as malicious, and it appears on at least one security blocklist. Despite its current offline status, historical data confirms active phishing campaigns. To mitigate credential theft risks, organizations should block the domain and IP at perimeter security controls. End users should verify the legitimacy of any login or verification prompt by inspecting the URL, avoiding links from unsolicited communications, and enabling multi-factor authentication on critical accounts. Security teams are advised to monitor for credential reuse attempts and conduct password resets for accounts potentially exposed to this campaign. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260219-ED4943 TLS cert SHA-256: 7fd20cf02280628dc722931b6c1b41b204a14cd98486dad38785ea6b7a84deed ## 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/capitolelectrics.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=capitolelectrics.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
