# PhishDestroy threat dossier — hotgalaxydeals.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-29 01:53:42 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/hotgalaxydeals.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- CRITICAL THREAT — DO NOT VISIT Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Sophos, Webroot AlienVault OTX: 4 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 87.85.108.73 (DE, Düsseldorf) ASN: AS3257 GTT Communications Inc. Hosting org: GTT - EMEA Ltd Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-26 14:13:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-29 03:23:02 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-26 14:14:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] hotgalaxydeals.com — Phishing Investigation Report This analysis documents the current threat posture of hotgalaxydeals.com as observed on 26 July 2026. The domain is registered through NameSilo, LLC and is serviced by the authoritative name servers ns1.domainnamedns.com and ns2.domainnamedns.com. Infrastructure monitoring indicates the domain remains active and continues to resolve to its hosting environment, returning HTTP 200 responses for inbound requests. The site has been flagged by PhishDestroy and appears on a single external blocklist, confirming that at least one anti‑phishing feed is actively filtering it. VirusTotal scans show that six of ninety‑one security vendors have reported the domain as malicious, providing independent corroboration of its classification as a generic phishing vector. No additional detection counts are available beyond this aggregate, and the specific vendor signatures are not disclosed in the source data. The limited detection footprint suggests that the campaign may be in an early deployment phase or that some scanning services have not yet captured the payload. Publicly available intelligence does not disclose the hosting IP address, autonomous system number, or SSL certificate details, leaving those components of the infrastructure unverified. Likewise, the page title, brand impersonation, or any phishing kit identifiers have not been released, preventing a more granular attribution of the campaign’s target. Because the domain delivers a successful HTTP 200 response, automated crawlers and endpoint protection platforms are likely to encounter the site during normal web traffic. Defenders should prioritize immediate containment by adding hotgalaxydeals.com to DNS‑based deny lists and ensuring that existing web‑filtering solutions block the domain. Continuous monitoring of the name servers and periodic rescans on multi‑vendor platforms are recommended to capture any evolution in the malicious payload. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 0b33f0395d0b3b1bd228caa2e053b019 TLS cert SHA-256: 4681d90b2289cabc289564cfe431111a15fccdf08d463b65402f8839fd43a154 ## 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/hotgalaxydeals.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hotgalaxydeals.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
