# PhishDestroy threat dossier — connect-bridged.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-01 15:15:38 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/connect-bridged.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 67/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, CRDF, Gridinsoft ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 34.144.206.118 (US, Kansas City) ASN: AS396982 Google LLC Hosting org: Google Cloud Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"] Registered: 2026-04-25 Page title: 404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-06-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 79b690ec6aae60ba0de52d269638de0a570e5a2c2e467d8b649454d39b9edaab Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wixstudio.com ## 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: 2026-04-25 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-25 10:14:28 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-28 01:37:10 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-26 15:52:59 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019dc37c-8266-75ac-b783-df8f17f702d3/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/connect-bridged.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.connect-bridged.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=connect-bridged.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/connect-bridged.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/connect-bridged.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-25 10:15:16 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies connect-bridged.wixstudio.com as an active credential-harvesting phishing portal currently under investigation for impersonating Wix Studio login pages. This domain was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors at the time of analysis and resolves to IP 34.144.206.118. The site holds a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate and operates under Wix’s infrastructure, indicating a likely compromise of a Wix user account used to host malicious content rather than a direct Wix platform breach. Historical WHOIS data suggests recent domain creation, low domain trust scores, and placement on 0 known threat blocklists—signals consistent with newly spun-up phishing infrastructure designed to evade detection. The current status remains active; however, the low detection count and absence from major blocklists indicate the campaign is still in its early stages and could escalate rapidly. Users are advised to avoid clicking links to connect-bridged.wixstudio.com, report any interactions to their security teams, and configure browser-based phishing filters to block access. Administrators should monitor outbound traffic for connections to 34.144.206.118 and scan endpoints for unsanctioned Wix-hosted content. Immediate takedown requests should be submitted to Wix abuse channels with full URL evidence. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 4/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 6b0c3a937095705c09335887d2269e9d TLS cert SHA-256: 79b690ec6aae60ba0de52d269638de0a570e5a2c2e467d8b649454d39b9edaab ## 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/connect-bridged.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=connect-bridged.wixstudio.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
