Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] congrts-invite-blue-badge.surge.sh: Confirmed Phishing Site The domain congrts-invite-blue-badge.surge.sh is currently active and has been identified as a generic phishing site. Registration records show that the domain is provisioned through the Surge.sh platform, a service that offers on‑demand static web hosting. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 138.197.235.123, which is associated with the hosting infrastructure used by Surge.sh. No authoritative nameserver entries are returned, indicating that the service relies on the platform’s default DNS configuration. Detection telemetry indicates that the domain has been flagged by 11 of 91 security engines on VirusTotal, demonstrating a measurable level of malicious classification across multiple vendors. The blocklist ecosystem reflects a single listing, and the domain is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy sinkhole, confirming that defensive operators have observed malicious activity originating from this host. No additional public blocklist entries are recorded at this time. The available intelligence does not include a page title, brand attribution, or detailed content analysis, leaving the exact phishing lure undefined. Consequently, the precise victim profile and the credential‑stealing mechanism remain uncertain. However, the combination of a high‑risk classification, active blocklist status, and multi‑engine detections suggests that the domain is being used to harvest user credentials or other sensitive data. Defenders should prioritize immediate containment by adding congrts-invite-blue-badge.surge.sh to network‑level deny lists and updating endpoint protection signatures to include the observed VirusTotal detections. Continuous monitoring of DNS queries for the IP address 138.197.235.123 is advised, as any shift in hosting or additional subdomains may indicate campaign expansion. Where possible, threat‑intel feeds should be enriched with this indicator to improve cross‑organization detection. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 97b6f955e414ca95a3c57ecae57c2cba8532736157112d6cc11f56a5a790058a ## 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/congrts-invite-blue-badge.surge.sh/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=congrts-invite-blue-badge.surge.sh 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.
