# PhishDestroy threat dossier — io-intel.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-01 05:01:05 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/io-intel.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 62/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/91 security vendors flagged this domain Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 76.223.105.230 (US, Seattle) ASN: ASAS16509 AMAZON-02 - Amazon.com, Inc., US Hosting org: AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ns11.domaincontrol.com, ns12.domaincontrol.com Registered: 2026-06-25 Expires: 2027-06-25 Page title: io-intel.com ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: GoDaddy.com / GoDaddy TLS Intermediate CA DV - R1v1 Expires: 2026-09-23 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: ba8f63cad8ec44efe4878bc9351ce5fdcf1c2cb50f8a3ad5f22899a8c468ce39 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - www.io-intel.com ## 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: 2026-06-25 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-27 07:28:32 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-27 05:32:17 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-01 04:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-27 12:17:39 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f078b-348e-76d8-846b-14dd190ad6ff/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/3ffe885a-d3b7-48de-8b02-cd203c527530 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/io-intel.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.io-intel.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=io-intel.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/io-intel.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/io-intel.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-27 07:35:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain io-intel.com is currently under investigation for hosting a generic phishing threat. While the specific phishing mechanism is not yet confirmed, the domain's infrastructure and registration details warrant caution. Typically, generic phishing domains are used to harvest sensitive user information through deceptive forms, misleading login portals, or fraudulent communications that mimic legitimate entities. Technical analysis reveals that io-intel.com is registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC, with an initial creation date of June 25, 2026. At present, the domain resolves to IP address 76.223.105.230 and employs an SSL certificate issued by the registrar, suggesting an attempt to project legitimacy. VirusTotal reports 0 out of 95 security vendors flagging this domain, indicating that it is not yet widely recognized or blocked by conventional threat intelligence feeds. The lack of current blocklist detections does not guarantee safety, but rather highlights the domain's newness and potential to evade early detection mechanisms. Individuals who have accessed io-intel.com are advised to take precautionary steps. Users should monitor their accounts for unauthorized activity, avoid entering any credentials or personal information, and consider running security scans on their devices. Organizations are encouraged to update security policies, monitor for traffic to this domain, and educate users about emerging phishing threats. Staying vigilant is critical, as domains with little to no detection footprint can escalate in risk as more intelligence becomes available. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260627-573DB4 Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: ba8f63cad8ec44efe4878bc9351ce5fdcf1c2cb50f8a3ad5f22899a8c468ce39 ## 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/io-intel.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=io-intel.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.
