# PhishDestroy threat dossier — io-online.eu.cc ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-28 15:04:03 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/io-online.eu.cc/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Microsoft ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.207.65.197 (US, Santa Monica) Hosting org: AS22612 Namecheap, Inc. Registrar: Gname.com Pte. Ltd. Nameservers: a.rsp-dns.com, b.rsp-dns.com, brenna.ns.cloudflare.com, scott.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 1997-10-13 Expires: 2031-03-26 Page title: Suche – Microsoft Bing ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR1 Expires: 2026-09-08 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 8a075c45a3000569f5f29f835e0d4f2bc11cc291aa0637d60e991d12b290521d Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - weblnps.eu.cc ## 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: 1997-10-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-11 08:07:54 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-11 06:09:06 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 16:20:38 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-18 00:09:31 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019eb549-eaf4-704f-93a4-5c43d0bfa773/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/d676f628-e604-4884-8ff9-99e88035194d Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/io-online.eu.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.io-online.eu.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=io-online.eu.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/io-online.eu.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/io-online.eu.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 23:56:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, io-online.eu.cc, represents a confirmed brand impersonation threat targeting Microsoft users. Analysis indicates the site mimics legitimate Microsoft services, specifically presenting a page titled 'Suche – Microsoft Bing,' likely designed to deceive users into entering sensitive credentials or downloading malicious payloads. The impersonation tactic leverages familiar branding elements to lower user vigilance, increasing the likelihood of successful credential harvesting or malware distribution. Given the elevated risk level, this domain poses a significant threat to both individual and organizational security, particularly for those relying on Microsoft accounts for authentication or cloud services. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators supporting the malicious classification of io-online.eu.cc. The domain resolves to the IP address 104.207.65.197 and was registered through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. on October 13, 1997, though the creation date may reflect domain re-registration or historical data inconsistencies. VirusTotal detections report 3 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while it appears on three distinct security blocklists, including MetaMask, PhishDestroy, and SEAL. Additionally, the domain has received a trust score of 0/100 from Gridinsoft, further corroborating its high-risk status. The combination of brand impersonation, low detection but non-zero vendor flags, and blocklist presence underscores the need for caution. Users who have visited io-online.eu.cc or interacted with its content should take immediate remedial actions. First, revoke any credentials entered on the site, particularly Microsoft account passwords, and enable multi-factor authentication if not already active. Conduct a full system scan using updated security tools to detect potential malware or unauthorized access. Monitor account activity for unusual logins or transactions, and report the incident to relevant security teams or incident response platforms. Organizations should also consider implementing network-level blocks for the domain and its associated IP address (104.207.65.197) to prevent further exposure. Proactive measures, such as user education on recognizing brand impersonation tactics, are recommended to mitigate future risks. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 3/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260611-B6424C TLS cert SHA-256: 8a075c45a3000569f5f29f835e0d4f2bc11cc291aa0637d60e991d12b290521d ## 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-online.eu.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=io-online.eu.cc 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.
