# PhishDestroy threat dossier — escbook.vip ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-22 13:30:07 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/escbook.vip/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 10/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, ESET, Fortinet, G-Data, Kaspersky, Lionic, Sophos Public blocklists: listed on 5 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 2606:4700:3033::6815:575 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NameCheap, Inc. Nameservers: ["molly.ns.cloudflare.com", "martin.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: 403 Forbidden HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-04-23 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 74e044a228b4e59ed2edb1a601073082684bc4982c10bd57ae9fb09bc4b8df32 ## 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 23:21:14 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-18 13:17:00 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-03 03:10:28 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019aabfd-2308-76df-b105-db24d34e910b/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/escbook.vip crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.escbook.vip Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=escbook.vip AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/escbook.vip URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/escbook.vip/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 15:23:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies escbook.vip as a high-risk generic phishing domain designed to deceive users. It was registered on February 21, 2026, and classified as malicious based on its behavior and threat indicators. The domain appeared on multiple security blocklists and was flagged by 10 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors. It was registered through a dead domain registrar, indicating suspicious infrastructure and poor reputation. Currently, escbook.vip is taken offline, and its operation has ceased. This proactive response mitigates ongoing risk and prevents further user exposure to phishing attacks. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 74e044a228b4e59ed2edb1a601073082684bc4982c10bd57ae9fb09bc4b8df32 ## 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/escbook.vip/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=escbook.vip 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.
