================================================================

Fetched:   2026-07-26 17:55:32 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/fl.hsdmv.cc/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Credential Phishing

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      9/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: BitDefender, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registered:      2026-06-12

## 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: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

First reported:    2026-06-15 06:37:34 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-26 16:20:40 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-18 00:10:02 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

fl.hsdmv.cc Fake Florida DMV Credential Theft Alert

The domain fl.hsdmv.cc is currently active and is flagged for credential theft. This domain impersonates the official Florida Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) website, aiming to deceive users into divulging sensitive information such as login credentials and personal data.

Analysis indicates that fl.hsdmv.cc has been flagged by 9 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, suggesting a moderate level of detection but also indicating that many vendors may not yet recognize the threat. The domain was created on June 12, 2026, and is registered with an unknown registrar. The IP address associated with this domain is not provided, but it appears on 1 security blocklist, which may include PhishDestroy. The domain's current status as active and the relatively low detection rate suggest that it is a relatively new or sophisticated campaign that has not yet been widely identified by security services.

Given the current status and the specific threat of credential theft, it is recommended that users avoid interacting with fl.hsdmv.cc. Security teams should monitor for any traffic to this domain and consider blocking it at the network level. Additionally, users should be educated on the importance of verifying the authenticity of websites, especially those purporting to be official government services, by checking for secure connections (HTTPS) and official domain names. Regular updates to security software and vigilance in recognizing phishing tactics can further mitigate the risk posed by this domain.

## 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.
