# PhishDestroy threat dossier — dbencrypt.tv ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 20:31:20 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/dbencrypt.tv/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 80/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["ns54.domaincontrol.com", "ns53.domaincontrol.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Secure What's Next | LevelBlue ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:24:43 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-12 19:50:32 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-17 06:04:18 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019cb6a4-e62f-729f-888a-1b51c0e131ba/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/dbencrypt.tv crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.dbencrypt.tv Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=dbencrypt.tv AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/dbencrypt.tv URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/dbencrypt.tv/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:19:59 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies dbencrypt.tv as a medium-risk generic phishing domain. The domain was used to impersonate legitimate services, potentially aiming to steal sensitive user information through deceptive web pages. Its presence in threat intelligence feeds and security blocklists highlights its involvement in malicious activities designed to exploit unsuspecting users. Technically, dbencrypt.tv was registered with GoDaddy.com, LLC on February 21, 2026. It appears in one AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulse and is listed on one security blocklist, indicating ongoing monitoring by security researchers. VirusTotal flagged the domain through 4 out of 95 security vendors, reflecting some consensus about its suspicious nature. The domain’s PageSpeed score is notably low at 20/100, consistent with the rapid deployment tactics often used in phishing campaigns. Currently, dbencrypt.tv is taken offline, reducing immediate risk to users. However, given its poor trust score of 0/100 from Gridinsoft and prior detections, users and organizations should remain cautious. It is recommended to block the domain at network perimeters and educate users to avoid clicking on links related to dbencrypt.tv. Continuous monitoring for any resurgence or similar phishing domains using the same branding or infrastructure is advised. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 4/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 5c3ea35fe0d29012a1c63346cc720e2a ## 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/dbencrypt.tv/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=dbencrypt.tv 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.
