Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Natcodev.com.ng phishing form steals investor credentials – Analysis of the domain investors.natcodev.com.ng, registered through Upperlink Limited, reveals an active phishing campaign targeting individuals through a falsified Expression of Interest Form. The domain resolves to IP address 163.61.188.7, hosted on infrastructure located in the United States under MIT's network. As of July 19, 2026, the page returns an HTTP 200 status, confirming operational status. The domain appears on one security blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy, and is flagged by 5 of 91 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating moderate detection but persistent risk. Infrastructure analysis shows the domain uses nameservers dns1.lytehosting.com through dns5.lytehosting.com, suggesting shared or reseller hosting commonly exploited for phishing operations. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt (R12), providing HTTPS encryption that may lend false legitimacy to potential victims. The page title, Expression of Interest Form - Natcodev, implies a targeted attempt to harvest sensitive information from individuals seeking investment or business opportunities, though the exact brand being impersonated remains unconfirmed. Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk due to its active status, confirmed phishing intent, and limited but present detection across security platforms. Network-level blocking of the IP 163.61.188.7 and domain investors.natcodev.com.ng is recommended. Further investigation into the hosting provider and registrar may reveal additional linked infrastructure used in this campaign. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: b9c395144942ce8c32184941339f0204bc926f94e2154d834af0239d92668c71 ## 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/investors.natcodev.com.ng/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=investors.natcodev.com.ng 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.
