# PhishDestroy threat dossier — lightsource.co.in ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-02 17:24:17 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/lightsource.co.in/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 68/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/91 security vendors flagged this domain URLQuery: 1 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 63.176.8.218 (DE, Frankfurt am Main) ASN: ASAS16509 AMAZON-02 - Amazon.com, Inc., US Hosting org: AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. Registrar: GoDaddy Nameservers: dns1.p06.nsone.net, dns2.p06.nsone.net, dns3.p06.nsone.net, dns4.p06.nsone.net Registered: 2026-02-28 Expires: 2027-02-28 Page title: Light Source - Company Introduction ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-07-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d7a91add3752de0f86363429a4950c1bb339c5d83f3da424f5ae1ea6b5de86ea ## 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: 2026-02-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-28 20:00:12 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-28 17:03:41 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-02 16:20:38 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 17:29:38 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e6f86-8e94-753b-b30f-d9f35ef0e5ed/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/5545b4bb-07dd-4c77-ae61-6b5fde6b1d90 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/lightsource.co.in crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.lightsource.co.in Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=lightsource.co.in AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/lightsource.co.in URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/lightsource.co.in/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 04:25:40 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, lightsource.co.in, is flagged as a generic phishing site targeting users through a fabricated corporate introduction page. The site presents itself under the title 'Light Source - Company Introduction,' likely designed to deceive victims into entering sensitive credentials by impersonating a legitimate business entity. No specific brand or drainer kit has been conclusively identified at this stage, though the page structure and content suggest a credential harvesting objective. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on February 28, 2026, through GoDaddy, an unusual future date indicating potential domain spoofing or registry manipulation. It resolves to the IP address 63.176.8.218 and employs a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, providing a false sense of security. The site is hosted on Netlify and enforces HSTS, which may complicate detection by less sophisticated security tools. VirusTotal reports 0 detections out of 95 engines, and the domain appears on a single security blocklist. No entries were found in Google Safe Browsing at the time of analysis. The domain has been taken offline, likely following detection and reporting. While no longer active, the infrastructure remains a residual risk due to the future-dated registration and the use of legitimate hosting services to evade initial scrutiny. Organizations are advised to monitor for related domains registered through the same registrar or resolving to the same IP range. Users who accessed the site should reset credentials immediately and enable multi-factor authentication on critical accounts. The anomalous creation date warrants further investigation into potential registry abuse or domain generation algorithm activity. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260528-4DAE15 TLS cert SHA-256: d7a91add3752de0f86363429a4950c1bb339c5d83f3da424f5ae1ea6b5de86ea ## 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/lightsource.co.in/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=lightsource.co.in 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.
