Nameservers: ["ns.gransy.com", "ns2.gransy.com", "ns3.gransy.com", "ns4.gransy.com", "ns5.gransy.com"] Registered: 2026-05-08 Page title: Accounts Centre ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-05 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 5ddb8539c669d37867bdcf9f19e9151c4a139ec2727e2c2d90d2bef57a8b93e1 ## 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: 2026-05-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-08 11:13:32 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-08 08:14:43 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-10 13:40:03 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-09 01:19:18 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e06a4-3b76-76fc-a510-40a645566622/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/7b43b525-8df6-4499-b2d6-c8c11268959f Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/facebook-payment.invoice-ads-process.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.facebook-payment.invoice-ads-process.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=facebook-payment.invoice-ads-process.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/facebook-payment.invoice-ads-process.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/facebook-payment.invoice-ads-process.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-08 11:14:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies facebook-payment.invoice-ads-process.com as an active Facebook invoice payment scam domain designed to impersonate legitimate Facebook payment portals. This threat exhibits high-risk characteristics and is currently operational, with confirmed malicious intent targeting users through brand impersonation tactics. This domain was flagged by 22 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating widespread recognition of its malicious nature. Registered through Gransy, s.r.o. on May 03, 2026, it resolves to IP address 172.66.0.96 and holds a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, which attackers often exploit to appear legitimate. The domain appears on three major security blocklists, including Phishunt, OpenPhish, and PhishingArmy, further confirming its malicious status. These technical indicators collectively demonstrate a sophisticated phishing operation with high deceptive potential. To mitigate exposure to this threat, users should avoid clicking links from unsolicited emails or messages claiming to be from Facebook payment services. Verify any payment requests directly through Facebook’s official website or app, and report suspicious communications. Organizations should block this domain at the network level and educate users about recognizing invoice payment scams. If compromised, users should change passwords immediately and monitor financial accounts for unauthorized transactions. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260508-2C33FF TLS cert SHA-256: 5ddb8539c669d37867bdcf9f19e9151c4a139ec2727e2c2d90d2bef57a8b93e1 ## 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/facebook-payment.invoice-ads-process.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=facebook-payment.invoice-ads-process.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.
