Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, castellodisanmarcocharmg.spahotel.guru, has been identified as an active brand impersonation phishing campaign targeting the Castello Di San Marco Charming Hotel & Spa. Analysis indicates the site is designed to deceive visitors into believing they are interacting with the legitimate hotel website, likely for credential harvesting or fraudulent booking transactions. The domain remains operational as of the latest verification, posing a high risk to unsuspecting users seeking accommodation services in Calatabiano, Italy. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolves to the IP address 52.29.26.157, a host that has been flagged by 8 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal for malicious activity. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common tactic among phishing operators to lend superficial legitimacy to fraudulent sites. While the registrar details remain undisclosed in the current dataset, the detection count and active status underscore the domain's association with confirmed phishing infrastructure. No historical blocklist data or trust scores were provided, limiting further contextual assessment of the threat actor's operational patterns. Current status confirms the domain remains active, necessitating immediate mitigation measures. Network administrators are advised to block the IP address 52.29.26.157 at the perimeter and update web filtering rules to categorize castellodisanmarcocharmg.spahotel.guru as malicious. Users who may have interacted with the site should reset credentials for any accounts accessed during the visit and monitor financial transactions for unauthorized activity. Organizations in the hospitality sector are encouraged to proactively monitor for similar impersonation attempts targeting their brand, particularly domains leveraging Let's Encrypt certificates and generic top-level domains. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: f64ad864d87e446dc9f89caf5522936c TLS cert SHA-256: 727d6a8ceaad8a64c8f5fec1a7ccc97c46570e980ffbe51a4893284ec68f6c5e ## 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/castellodisanmarcocharmg.spahotel.guru/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=castellodisanmarcocharmg.spahotel.guru 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.
