Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] fastsmsverify.com.ng credential phishing site On July 19 2026 the domain fastsmsverify.com.ng was observed hosting a credential phishing campaign. The site presents the title “fastsmsverify - SMS Verification Service”, suggesting a service that could be abused to harvest SMS‑based verification codes. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 163.61.188.7, which is geolocated to the United States and is associated with a MIT‑affiliated network. The server presents a Let’s Encrypt certificate issued under the YR1 program, indicating recent TLS deployment. Infrastructure is hosted on TRUEHOST CLOUD and uses four LyteHosting name servers (dns1‑dns4.lytehosting.com). MX records point to the same domain, a pattern often used to receive victim communications. The domain is listed on one public blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy sinkhole. AlienVault OTX has indexed the domain in two separate threat‑intel pulses, and VirusTotal reports five detections out of ninety‑one scanners. While the page content has not been publicly dissected, the combination of a credential‑phishing classification, active status, high risk rating, and existing detections indicates a live threat. Defenders should add fastsmsverify.com.ng to URL filtering and DNS block lists, monitor outbound traffic for connections to 163.61.188.7, and consider isolating any internal accounts that rely on SMS‑based verification until the campaign is mitigated. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: e1a84c2b35b0739e778faebfdedd80b1e9b9c5fcf265d8130623462bf886539d ## 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 (operator 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/fastsmsverify.com.ng/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fastsmsverify.com.ng 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
