Is cloves.au a Phishing Site?

The domain cloves.au is currently flagged as an active generic phishing resource. According to the latest intelligence dated July 19, 2026, the site returns HTTP 200 responses, indicating that the web server is reachable and delivering content. It has been added to a single security blocklist and is presently blocked by the PhishDestroy mitigation service. VirusTotal analysis shows that the domain was scanned by 95 antivirus and URL‑reputation engines, none of which reported a detection at the time of scanning; this absence of detections does not constitute evidence of benign behavior. Infrastructure analysis reveals no publicly disclosed hosting details such as ASN or geographical location, and no brand or kit attribution is available in the current data set. The limited visibility means that the exact content and tactics employed by the site remain unknown, and the absence of a detection does not preclude the possibility of malicious payloads or credential‑harvesting pages being served. Defenders should continue to enforce blocklist rules for cloves.au, monitor network traffic for outbound connections to the domain, and consider adding the host to proxy or firewall deny lists. Ongoing observation is recommended to capture any changes in the domain’s behavior, including possible inclusion in additional blocklists or emergence of detections from future scanning services.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      801e720eef44093c37161df20ca62cc84c04bf2805f3b59e28962c87fbb986e0

## 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.
