Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, docupdate.bid, is currently under investigation for credential phishing activity targeting enterprise users, specifically those associated with Microsoft 365 services. Analysis of the domain suggests it is designed to mimic legitimate document update or notification pages, likely employing social engineering tactics to harvest login credentials. No specific brand impersonation or drainer kit has been confirmed at this stage, though the infrastructure aligns with known phishing campaign patterns observed in recent months. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain resolves to IP address 162.255.119.18, with a VirusTotal detection score of 0/95, indicating no antivirus engines have flagged it as malicious at the time of this report. It was registered through NameCheap, Inc. on June 30, 2026, an anomalous creation date suggesting possible domain age manipulation or a placeholder registration. Google Safe Browsing status remains unconfirmed, and no blocklist entries have been recorded across major threat intelligence platforms. The domain remains operational and accessible. Current status is classified as active, with ongoing monitoring to determine the full scope of the threat. Response actions include continuous scanning for associated subdomains, payload analysis, and coordination with registrar abuse teams for potential takedown. Despite the lack of detections, the domain poses a residual risk due to its operational state and targeted phishing design. Organizations are advised to block the domain and IP at the perimeter, monitor for user access attempts, and educate employees on recognizing unsolicited document update prompts. Further investigation will focus on identifying linked infrastructure and potential threat actor attribution. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - Public blocklists: now listed on 3 feeds - VirusTotal detections: now 1/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260701-764CBC ## 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/docupdate.bid/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=docupdate.bid 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.
