# PhishDestroy threat dossier — lider-return.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-22 16:46:32 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/lider-return.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 85/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.144.200 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NameCheap, Inc. Nameservers: ["alberto.ns.cloudflare.com", "hazel.ns.cloudflare.com"] Page title: 404 Not Found HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-31 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: c1723e8ac880d1f34e60c4e24673b7315466b267730ed07ccd05c3c3fdd219a1 ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-19 12:38:34 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-22 16:20:24 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-20 00:23:15 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-19 23:10:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is lider-return.com a Fake Return Portal Scam? Analysis indicates that lider-return.com is an active phishing domain flagged by security vendors as a high-risk threat. The domain resolves to IP address 172.67.144.200, hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure in Canada, and currently returns an HTTP 301 redirect with a '404 Not Found' page title. This behavior is consistent with phishing campaigns that use Cloudflare to mask backend servers or temporarily hide malicious content. The domain is registered through NameCheap, Inc., and uses Cloudflare nameservers (alberto.ns.cloudflare.com and hazel.ns.cloudflare.com), a common tactic to evade takedowns and obscure hosting providers. The domain appears on at least one security blocklist, and four of ninety-one security vendors on VirusTotal have flagged it as malicious. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), which does not inherently indicate legitimacy, as phishing domains frequently use valid certificates to appear trustworthy. While the exact nature of the scam—such as whether it targets e-commerce returns, customer support, or another specific brand—is not confirmed in available data, the domain name suggests an attempt to impersonate a return or refund portal, a known phishing tactic. Defenders should treat this domain as compromised and block it at the network level. Given the HTTP 301 redirect and Cloudflare hosting, further investigation into the final destination of the redirect is recommended to identify any associated malicious infrastructure. The domain remains active as of July 19, 2026, and organizations should monitor for related indicators, such as connected IP addresses or newly registered domains with similar naming patterns. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: c1723e8ac880d1f34e60c4e24673b7315466b267730ed07ccd05c3c3fdd219a1 ## 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/lider-return.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=lider-return.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.
