# PhishDestroy threat dossier — hm-treasury-uk.ca ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-13 09:54:30 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/hm-treasury-uk.ca/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Generic Phishing Phishing kit: Airdrop Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, LevelBlue, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.144.168 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: CENTRALNIC CANADA INC Nameservers: donna.ns.cloudflare.com, drew.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-11 Expires: 2027-05-11 Page title: HM-Treasury HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-09 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 377e26a7e5b242ccd4a2d7597d8fbe10b8c83397e26471f0c434d5c80d920b9a ## 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: 2026-05-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-22 18:52:42 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-22 16:53:42 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-13 08:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-23 00:01:45 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ef03e-dc9e-7000-be4d-c9d72d811528/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/da55eb3c-fbad-444d-a9f7-26fb6bb07925 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/hm-treasury-uk.ca crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.hm-treasury-uk.ca Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=hm-treasury-uk.ca AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/hm-treasury-uk.ca URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/hm-treasury-uk.ca/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-12 17:27:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain hm-treasury-uk.ca was registered on May 11, 2026 through CENTRALNIC CANADA INC and is presently active. Its authoritative nameservers are donna.ns.cloudflare.com and drew.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating that the domain is hosted behind Cloudflare’s edge network. The site presents the page title "HM-Treasury" and serves content over HTTPS using a Let’s Encrypt certificate (E7). An HTTP GET returns a 200 status code, confirming that the web service is operational. Infrastructure analysis shows the domain resolves to IP address 172.67.144.168, which belongs to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc., located in the United States. The use of Cloudflare’s CDN suggests attempts to hide the true origin server and to benefit from built‑in DDoS mitigation. The SSL certificate is valid, but its presence does not mitigate the malicious intent of the site. Detection telemetry reveals that six out of ninety‑five VirusTotal scanners have flagged the domain as malicious, and Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100. The domain appears on three independent security blocklists and is specifically blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL, reinforcing the consensus that it is being used for phishing. The observed phishing kit is identified as an "Airdrop Scam," which typically lures victims with promises of free token distributions to harvest credentials. Analysis concludes that hm-treasury-uk.ca is a high‑risk generic phishing operation targeting users with a fabricated treasury‑related theme. Defenders should block the domain at DNS and proxy layers, monitor outbound connections to the associated Cloudflare IP, and update detection signatures to include the observed page title and SSL fingerprint. Continuous threat‑intel feeds should be consulted for any emerging indicators linked to the Airdrop Scam kit, and incident response teams should advise users to verify any unsolicited treasury communications against official sources. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260622-799038 Favicon MD5: c30c7d42707a47a3f4591831641e50dc TLS cert SHA-256: 377e26a7e5b242ccd4a2d7597d8fbe10b8c83397e26471f0c434d5c80d920b9a ## 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/hm-treasury-uk.ca/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hm-treasury-uk.ca 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.
