# PhishDestroy threat dossier — hcdistrictclerk.lgbri.vip ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-16 16:51:00 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/hcdistrictclerk.lgbri.vip/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Brand Impersonation ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 10/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: BitDefender, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Sophos, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.174.63 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Namemart Limited Nameservers: ["venus.ns.cloudflare.com", "maxim.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-12 Page title: lgbri.vip | 521: Web server is down HTTP response: 521 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-13 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 86624ad46df69f9e254a564a0859b103763897fe22d4b73abbcee99fb6e985e4 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - lgbri.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 22:30:37 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-16 16:20:47 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-13 13:02:09 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-12 17:50:56 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.lgbri.vip, is flagged as a high-risk phishing resource impersonating a government district clerk portal. Analysis indicates the subdomain was registered on June 12, 2026, through Namemart Limited, a registrar frequently associated with recently deployed phishing infrastructure. The domain currently resolves to 172.67.174.63, a Cloudflare IP address located in Canada, which is consistent with adversaries leveraging content delivery networks to obscure origin servers and evade takedowns. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain uses Cloudflare nameservers (venus.ns.cloudflare.com and maxim.ns.cloudflare.com) and presents a Google Trust Services SSL certificate (WE1), suggesting an attempt to appear legitimate to targets. However, the server returns an HTTP 521 status, indicating the web server is intentionally down or misconfigured, a common tactic to avoid immediate detection while maintaining domain control for future campaigns. The page title, 'lgbri.vip | 521: Web server is down,' further supports this observation, as it aligns with temporary staging behavior rather than a fully operational phishing kit. Security vendor detections on VirusTotal show 10 out of 95 engines flagging the domain, while it appears on at least one blocklist. The Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100 reinforces the high-risk classification. Defenders should note that while the domain is not currently serving active phishing content, its infrastructure remains intact and may be reactivated. Network-level blocking of 172.67.174.63 and the domain itself is recommended, alongside monitoring for changes in HTTP status or new subdomains under lgbri.vip. The use of 'hcdistrictclerk' in the subdomain suggests a focus on local government impersonation, which may correlate with targeted campaigns against municipal employees or residents. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 10/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 7204850560e39efe1510bdf38e09b2da TLS cert SHA-256: 86624ad46df69f9e254a564a0859b103763897fe22d4b73abbcee99fb6e985e4 ## 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.lgbri.vip/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hcdistrictclerk.lgbri.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.
