No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-07-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-08 13:56:57 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-08 16:45:09 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f4195-5cb2-70bd-bb05-30e05a546cee/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/gov-umbra.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.gov-umbra.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=gov-umbra.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/gov-umbra.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/gov-umbra.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-08 15:00:46 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, gov-umbra.xyz, is actively engaged in credential theft operations targeting users under the guise of government-related services. Analysis of the page title, 'Umbra,' and domain structure suggests an attempt to impersonate secure or official portals, likely to deceive victims into submitting sensitive login credentials. Such campaigns are commonly used to gain unauthorized access to email accounts, administrative systems, or other protected resources, with subsequent exploitation for financial fraud, data exfiltration, or lateral movement within compromised networks. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators supporting this assessment. The domain resolves to the IP address 172.67.141.157, a host that has been associated with other malicious activities. It was registered on July 07, 2024, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, a registrar frequently utilized in phishing campaigns due to its accessibility and low verification thresholds. Detection metrics further corroborate the threat: VirusTotal reports 6 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while AlienVault OTX lists it in one threat intelligence pulse, indicating cross-industry recognition of its harmful nature. The domain remains active as of this analysis, increasing the risk of exposure to unsuspecting users. Users who have visited gov-umbra.xyz or interacted with its content should take immediate remedial action. Any credentials entered on the site must be considered compromised and should be reset across all platforms where they were reused. System scans using updated security tools are recommended to detect potential malware or unauthorized access. Network administrators should block the domain and its associated IP address (172.67.141.157) at the perimeter level to prevent further exposure. Organizations are advised to monitor for signs of credential abuse, such as unusual login attempts or unauthorized access to sensitive systems, and to educate users on recognizing impersonation tactics targeting government or enterprise services. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: b88244b9e1739bcd0aaa84ad844d527e5842895c74282412c9beb33fdf9f6dbc ## 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/gov-umbra.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=gov-umbra.xyz 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.
