# PhishDestroy threat dossier — freight.vortexpro-cargo.top ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-29 20:21:17 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/freight.vortexpro-cargo.top/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 59/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: across (and: reddit, x.com) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Gridinsoft, Trustwave Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 163.61.188.5 (US, New York City) ASN: ASAS153568 NEWDHAKAHARDWARE-AS-AP NEW DHAKA HARDWARE, BD Hosting org: AS153568 NEW DHAKA HARDWARE Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

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: 2025-07-22 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-08-07 18:03:31 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-29 07:48:22 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/01988658-840d-714a-a2f2-1a713cd4a9cd/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/freight.vortexpro-cargo.top crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.freight.vortexpro-cargo.top Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=freight.vortexpro-cargo.top AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/freight.vortexpro-cargo.top URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/freight.vortexpro-cargo.top/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 00:16:56 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies freight.vortexpro-cargo.top as a generic phishing domain, primarily targeting users with deceptive cargo-related branding. The domain was registered recently on July 22, 2025, and its page title references "Home - VORTEXPRO-CARGO," suggesting an attempt to mimic legitimate freight or logistics services. Technical indicators include its registration via NameSilo, LLC, and resolution to IP address 163.61.188.5. VirusTotal analysis flagged this domain by 2 out of 95 security vendors, and it appears on one security blocklist, indicating some level of community detection though the overall risk remains low. The domain infrastructure shows typical characteristics of phishing setups, including a generic page and short lifespan. Currently, freight.vortexpro-cargo.top is offline and inaccessible, reducing immediate risk to users. PhishDestroy recommends avoiding any interaction with this domain if encountered, refraining from submitting sensitive information, and ensuring endpoint protections are up to date. Monitoring for potential reactivation or similar domains is advised as part of ongoing vigilance. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: efa1bd9a4ca72b8d750d676d7f27bb98e5eb439bb4d24e07a5ae13ea1785996d ## 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/freight.vortexpro-cargo.top/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=freight.vortexpro-cargo.top 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.
