Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain imnew-whatsapp.hl.cn was created on July 11, 2026 and is currently active. Registration was performed through the Chinese entity 万商云集(成都)科技股份有限公司, and the domain is delegated to the Cloudflare name servers mallory.ns.cloudflare.com and ryan.ns.cloudflare.com. DNS resolution points to the IP address 104.21.68.92. Independent analysis on VirusTotal shows that eight of ninety‑one security vendors have flagged the domain as malicious, supporting its classification as a generic phishing site. The threat is assessed as high risk, consistent with its recent creation date and rapid appearance in security feeds. Concrete details about the phishing payload, targeted brand, or landing page content have not been disclosed, leaving the exact lure and victim interaction unknown. Defenders should treat the domain as hostile: block DNS resolution and HTTP traffic to 104.21.68.92, add the fully qualified domain name to endpoint and network denylists, and monitor for any outbound connections from internal hosts to the associated Cloudflare name servers. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised as further intelligence, such as sample URLs or payload analysis, becomes available.

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/imnew-whatsapp.hl.cn/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=imnew-whatsapp.hl.cn 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.
