Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies cyberinvestigations.online as a medium-risk phishing domain posing potential threats to users seeking specialized recovery services. Phishing attacks can lead to theft of personal information, credentials, or financial data, making vigilance critical when encountering unfamiliar domains claiming to offer investigative recovery services. The domain cyberinvestigations.online was registered recently on October 15, 2025, and has quickly attracted attention from multiple security analysts. It resolves to the IP address 146.70.118.226 and was registered via PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. The domain's trust score is extremely low, scoring 1 out of 100 on Scamadviser, and it appears on one security blocklist. VirusTotal analysis flagged it by 3 out of 95 security vendors, while AlienVault OTX found it in one threat intelligence pulse. Although the site is currently offline, these indicators suggest a history of phishing or malicious intent. Users are advised to avoid any engagement with cyberinvestigations.online or similar suspicious domains, particularly ones offering specialized services that seem too good to be true or request sensitive information. Remain cautious when clicking on links or responding to unsolicited messages related to this domain. Employ up-to-date security solutions and verify the legitimacy of recovery firms through trusted channels before sharing any personal data. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: c9f4a57f4a8ac016d2377b7de2bee11b4518669df065afd0344ce4d879bb924b ## 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/cyberinvestigations.online/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cyberinvestigations.online 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.
