No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-06-29 03:20:01 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-29 01:27:02 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 09:46:59 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f10f5-0ff6-720e-9342-ccdb795c311b/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/46b7a155-f551-421a-8fe8-8d6ed9093d9c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/detect-idevice.us crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.detect-idevice.us Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=detect-idevice.us AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/detect-idevice.us URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/detect-idevice.us/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-29 03:25:32 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, detect-idevice.us, is currently active and classified as a credential harvesting phishing site specifically targeting Apple ID users. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to mimic legitimate Apple device verification portals, likely to capture login credentials, payment details, or personal information under false pretenses. The domain remains operational and poses an elevated risk to unsuspecting users. Infrastructure analysis reveals detect-idevice.us resolves to the IP address 162.144.180.56, a host with a history of malicious activity. The domain is flagged by 10 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating moderate consensus on its phishing classification. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common tactic among threat actors to lend superficial legitimacy to fraudulent sites. No additional registrar details or creation date metadata were available at the time of analysis, but the domain's active status and vendor detections warrant immediate scrutiny. Current status confirms detect-idevice.us remains accessible and operational. Organizations and individuals are advised to block the domain and its associated IP (162.144.180.56) at the network perimeter. Endpoint protection solutions should be updated to include this domain in phishing and malicious site blocklists. Users who may have interacted with the domain should reset their Apple ID credentials immediately and enable multi-factor authentication. Network logs should be reviewed for connections to 162.144.180.56 to identify potential compromise. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 11/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260629-1C2CE1 Favicon MD5: 0a81714b61002c2c25a197ce6c45e694 ## 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/detect-idevice.us/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=detect-idevice.us 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.
