# PhishDestroy threat dossier — confirmation-id1718.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-22 00:52:07 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/confirmation-id1718.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 15/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Registrar: Atak Domain Bilgi Teknolojileri A.S. Registered: 2025-06-20 Expires: 2026-06-20 ## 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: 2025-06-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-12 22:30:29 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 06:36:36 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-22 00:20:38 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-14 00:34:47 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 11:25:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] confirmation-id1718.com: Credential Harvesting Phishing Domain This domain is flagged as a high-risk credential harvesting phishing site targeting user authentication data. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to mimic legitimate verification portals, tricking victims into submitting login credentials, multi-factor authentication codes, or personal identification details. The specific threat type, credential harvesting, involves the unauthorized collection of sensitive authentication information for subsequent account compromise or identity theft. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain confirmation-id1718.com was registered on June 20, 2025, through Atak Domain Bilgi Teknolojileri A.S. As of the latest scan, 15 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flag the domain as malicious. The domain appears on one security blocklist and remains active, with no observed takedown efforts. No associated IP addresses or hosting providers have been publicly disclosed in threat intelligence feeds, though passive DNS analysis suggests potential use of bulletproof hosting or rapidly rotating infrastructure to evade detection. Mitigation against credential harvesting phishing domains requires layered defenses. Network-level protections should include blocking the domain at firewalls, DNS resolvers, and email security gateways. Endpoint security solutions must be configured to detect and prevent access to known phishing URLs, with real-time URL scanning enabled. User awareness training should emphasize the risks of unsolicited verification requests, particularly those using urgency or fear tactics. Organizations should enforce multi-factor authentication and implement credential monitoring to detect unauthorized access attempts stemming from harvested credentials. Security teams are advised to monitor for indicators of compromise, including unexpected login attempts or anomalous authentication patterns linked to this domain. ## 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/confirmation-id1718.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=confirmation-id1718.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.
