# PhishDestroy threat dossier — hcdistrictclerk.lgbah.vip ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-16 16:51:08 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/hcdistrictclerk.lgbah.vip/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 8/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: Namemart Limited Nameservers: ["gwen.ns.cloudflare.com", "alex.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-12 Page title: lgbah.vip | 521: Web server is down HTTP response: 521 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-18 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: c3e7b9efc113c451d576dbc812b7ca98d3a0d37a9db17c9b97e6b6df64dcbe0a Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - lgbah.vip ## 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 detected: 2026-06-12 22:30:31 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 06:37:37 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-16 16:20:47 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-18 00:23:39 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 22:02:17 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, hcdistrictclerk.lgbah.vip, is identified as a credential theft phishing operation. Analysis indicates the infrastructure impersonates a county district clerk or government service portal, likely designed to harvest login credentials, personal identification details, or sensitive documents from victims under false pretenses. No direct association with known crypto drainer kits or brand-specific impersonation (e.g., financial institutions) was observed, but the use of a government-themed lure suggests a focus on high-value data exfiltration for identity fraud or subsequent targeted attacks. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 12, 2026, through Namemart Limited, a registrar frequently utilized in phishing campaigns. The domain is flagged by 8 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, with one confirmed blocklist entry. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, a common tactic to lend legitimacy to malicious domains. No associated IP address or Google Safe Browsing (GSB) status was recorded at the time of analysis, though the domain’s rapid detection by security vendors suggests prior malicious activity or heuristic red flags. The domain is currently offline, likely due to takedown actions or voluntary abandonment by the threat actor. However, residual risk remains elevated due to the potential for re-registration under a similar naming scheme or migration to a new domain. Organizations should monitor for recurring patterns, such as government-themed subdomains under newly registered or low-reputation TLDs. Users are advised to verify government portals via official channels, enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) on sensitive accounts, and report suspicious domains to their security teams for further investigation and blocklisting. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 7204850560e39efe1510bdf38e09b2da TLS cert SHA-256: c3e7b9efc113c451d576dbc812b7ca98d3a0d37a9db17c9b97e6b6df64dcbe0a ## 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/hcdistrictclerk.lgbah.vip/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hcdistrictclerk.lgbah.vip 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.
