# PhishDestroy threat dossier — download-version.1-5-8.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-20 18:22:31 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/download-version.1-5-8.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 67/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 20/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, ArcSight Threat Intelligence, BitDefender, Certego, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Kaspersky, Lionic, MalwareURL, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, Viettel Threat Intelligence, VIPRE, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Registrar: Realtime Register B.V. Nameservers: ["gordon.ns.cloudflare.com", "novalee.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-01 Page title: 403 Forbidden ## 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: 2026-06-01 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-02 01:30:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 03:46:09 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-20 20:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-02 18:29:09 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 16:41:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain download-version.1-5-8.com carries an elevated risk level and has been identified as a generic phishing threat, designed to trick users into downloading malicious software or revealing sensitive information. Although the site is currently offline, its history and security indicators suggest it was part of a broader phishing campaign targeting users seeking software downloads. PhishDestroy's analysis confirms the domain's malicious intent, and users should remain cautious of similar domains that may appear in the future. This domain was registered on June 01, 2026, through Realtime Register B.V., and its creation date so far in the future is highly unusual, often a sign of speculative or fraudulent registration. VirusTotal flagged the domain with 20 out of 95 security vendors marking it as malicious, indicating strong consensus among security tools. The domain appears on one security blocklist, and its current status is offline, likely after being taken down due to abuse reports. The page title "403 Forbidden" further confirms that the site was either restricted or already neutralized. These technical indicators collectively point to a high-confidence phishing operation. To protect against generic phishing threats like this, users should always verify the legitimacy of download sites by checking the official source. Avoid clicking on links from unsolicited emails or pop-up ads offering software updates. Use reputable antivirus software with web protection features, and enable two-factor authentication on important accounts. If you have already interacted with this domain, run a full system scan and monitor your accounts for suspicious activity. Staying informed through security reports like this one is key to maintaining digital safety. ## 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/download-version.1-5-8.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=download-version.1-5-8.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.
