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: 2026-06-17 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 15:56:12 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-28 14:34:39 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 08:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-29 00:18:17 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0e82-e3b4-7043-b673-6f9018ffb43b/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/82367f10-1f1e-4274-bad8-59ef96a61a9d Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/hoteliersummit.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.hoteliersummit.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=hoteliersummit.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/hoteliersummit.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/hoteliersummit.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 18:00:19 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, hoteliersummit.com, is currently under investigation for brand impersonation phishing targeting the hospitality industry. Analysis indicates the site mimics a legitimate event, specifically the Hoteliers Elite Summit, to deceive professionals into engaging with fraudulent content. The domain presents itself as an official platform for the Hoteliers Elite Summit Las Vegas 2026, a high-profile industry event, suggesting an intent to exploit trust in established brands for malicious purposes. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 17, 2026, through Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com. It resolves to the IP address 104.21.92.252 and has been flagged in 2 AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses. Despite its active status, the domain has not been detected by any of the 95 vendors on VirusTotal, though it appears on 1 security blocklist. The page title, "Hoteliers Elite Summit Las Vegas 2026 — Global Hospitality Leadership," aligns with the impersonation theme, reinforcing the likelihood of a coordinated phishing campaign. Current assessment places the domain in an active state, with no takedown or mitigation measures observed as of this report. Organizations and individuals in the hospitality sector are advised to block access to this domain at the network level and monitor for related indicators of compromise. Security teams should update detection rules to include the domain, its resolving IP, and associated registrar details. Users are urged to verify event authenticity through official channels before engaging with any communications or websites claiming affiliation with the Hoteliers Elite Summit. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-8C780A Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: 98f4b55a2ca726189256d40eef8a8cec7a3915bf5f168a5ca79e421db121d451 ## 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 (volunteer 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/hoteliersummit.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hoteliersummit.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
