Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is grammarlyad.com a Phishing Scam? The domain grammarlyad.com was registered on June 14, 2026 through the registrar Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com. The zone is served by four CloudNS nameservers (ns71.cloudns.net, ns72.cloudns.com, ns73.cloudns.net, ns74.cloudns.uk) and resolves to the IPv4 address 196.251.107.1. Threat intelligence indicates that the domain is actively used for generic phishing, as reflected by its classification in the supplied data. It appears on a single public blocklist and is specifically blocked by the PhishDestroy filtering service. Google Safe Browsing has listed the domain for social‑engineering abuse. VirusTotal analysis shows that 13 of 91 scanned security vendors flagged the domain, suggesting a non‑trivial detection rate across independent scanners. The current DNS records remain unchanged, confirming the domain is still online as of the report date, July 20, 2026. No public SSL certificate information, HTTP response codes, or page title data have been published for grammarlyad.com, leaving the content of the hosted site unverified. Consequently, the exact phishing lure, target brand, or credential‑capture mechanism cannot be described beyond the generic classification. The limited blocklist presence (one listing) and the moderate detection count imply that the domain may be newly deployed or operating under a low‑profile infrastructure. Defenders should treat grammarlyad.com as high‑risk. Immediate actions include adding the domain to network‑level deny lists, updating endpoint URL filtering policies, and ensuring that any email security gateway blocks messages containing the domain. Continuous monitoring of the IP address 196.251.107.1 for new activity, as well as periodic rescans on VirusTotal or similar platforms, is recommended to capture any escalation in detection rates. Because the registrar information is publicly visible, coordination with Fewmoretaps OU to request takedown may be pursued if organizational policy permits. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 3102dfab6b33a6f2db9ad1ab8e24babc TLS cert SHA-256: ca94269af34985424819f39181d49dad6b78c897cc72619dcc23ce092b5c39ff ## 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/grammarlyad.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=grammarlyad.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
