hj18.net — Generic Phishing Investigation Report

On 26 July 2026, the domain hj18.net was observed as an active infrastructure supporting a generic phishing campaign. Registration data indicates the domain was created through Dominet (HK) Limited, a registrar based in Hong Kong, which is consistent with other malicious domains that exploit offshore registration services to obscure ownership. The authoritative name servers resolve to ns1.domainnamedns.com and ns2.domainnamedns.com, both of which are publicly listed and have been associated with multiple abusive sites in prior threat intelligence feeds. HTTP requests to the root of hj18.net return a 200 OK status, confirming that a web server is actively serving content.

Analysis by VirusTotal shows that eight of ninety‑one scanned security vendors flagged the domain as malicious, providing independent confirmation of its abusive nature. The domain is currently listed on at least one security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy service, indicating that upstream defenders are already taking mitigation steps. Despite these indicators, the domain remains reachable, suggesting that the threat actors maintain the site to harvest credentials or redirect victims.

No additional contextual information such as page title, target brand, or specific phishing kit was supplied, so the precise luring technique cannot be confirmed at this time. Defenders should continue to block hj18.net at network perimeter and DNS layers, monitor for any IP address changes associated with the listed name servers, and consider adding the domain to internal blocklists. Ongoing surveillance of the registrar’s future registrations and periodic rescanning with multi‑vendor platforms are recommended to detect any repurposing of the infrastructure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       5157ca70b5a47f903bda1b4341edfdb6
TLS cert SHA-256:      1b52fb57022f2a1bb70ee8ea36f2d7c49299fd0c663f34a2bf89f139f387535e

## 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.
