# PhishDestroy threat dossier — catpchabot.vercel.app ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-07 08:35:47 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/catpchabot.vercel.app/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 72/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: MalwareURL Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 64.29.17.195 (US, Walnut) ASN: ASAS16509 AMAZON-02, US Hosting org: AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. Registrar: Tucows Domains Inc. Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: 404: NOT_FOUND HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WR1 Expires: 2026-05-27 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4b377d7d8e1770bbe1519b5896246c116ab3aea968434658b330f054f7ea4338 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - vercel.app ## 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 23:20:17 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-06-02 17:20:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-24 03:00:34 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019a2cb8-2a50-737b-a01e-e38a87dff6af/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/catpchabot.vercel.app crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.catpchabot.vercel.app Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=catpchabot.vercel.app AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/catpchabot.vercel.app URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/catpchabot.vercel.app/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 00:38:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies catpchabot.vercel.app as a generic phishing domain registered on February 21, 2026. Classified as a low-risk threat, this domain was likely created to deceive users through fraudulent means, though no specific brand impersonation or targeted campaign was evident. It was registered via Tucows Domains Inc., a common registrar. Technical analysis reveals that catpchabot.vercel.app resolved to IP address 64.29.17.195 and appeared on one security blocklist, indicating some level of detection by security vendors. VirusTotal flagged the domain by only 1 out of 95 scanning engines, suggesting minimal but notable suspicion. The landing page returned a "404: NOT_FOUND" error, implying the phishing content was either removed or never fully deployed. Currently, catpchabot.vercel.app is offline and no longer active, reducing immediate risk to users. PhishDestroy recommends continued monitoring of this domain and related infrastructure for any reactivation attempts. Users should remain cautious and avoid interacting with this domain or similar suspicious URLs to maintain cybersecurity hygiene. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 4b377d7d8e1770bbe1519b5896246c116ab3aea968434658b330f054f7ea4338 ## 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/catpchabot.vercel.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=catpchabot.vercel.app 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.
