Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies the domain fbadsmanager.com as an active Facebook Ads Manager phishing scam. This domain poses a severe credential theft risk, as it impersonates Facebook’s Ads Manager platform to deceive users into entering login credentials or sensitive payment data. As of this advisory, PhishDestroy confirms fbadsmanager.com remains active and resolvable. PhishDestroy’s analysis reveals this domain was flagged by 16 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating significant malicious activity. Registered through NAMECHEAP INC on May 21, 2025, the domain resolves to IP 63.250.38.111 and is secured by an SSL certificate issued by Sectigo Limited. This combination of recent registration, malicious detection rate, and active infrastructure underscores a high-risk threat. Given the domain’s active status and confirmed malicious intent, PhishDestroy strongly advises users and organizations to immediately block fbadsmanager.com at the network and DNS levels. Additionally, security teams should update firewall rules and SIEM signatures to detect and prevent connections to 63.250.38.111. Users who may have interacted with this domain should reset their Facebook Ads Manager credentials and enable multi-factor authentication. Organizations are encouraged to conduct phishing awareness training and verify all third-party ad management tools against official Facebook domains. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 2a98f0c0325f24d533d0e3b8c3ac04e6deaccdbf8b3b9289fe98ee050d42289f ## 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/fbadsmanager.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fbadsmanager.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.
