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: 2026-03-27 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-19 02:31:58 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-19 00:40:28 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-26 16:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-19 03:04:36 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019edd48-d3a5-73ed-8902-ec97a9b915b4/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/c1d12215-96db-4a09-a02b-0cfd419b3080 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/linkfinancesl.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.linkfinancesl.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=linkfinancesl.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/linkfinancesl.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/linkfinancesl.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 18:17:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] linkfinancesl.com poses a significant threat as a fake login phishing domain aimed at deceiving users into providing sensitive information. This domain utilizes social engineering tactics that may lead users to believe they are interacting with legitimate financial services, thus compromising their credentials and personal data. Evidence gathered indicates that linkfinancesl.com has been flagged by VirusTotal with a detection count of 1 out of 95 security vendors. The domain was registered through Metaregistrar BV, with its creation date recorded as March 27, 2026. Furthermore, it appears on one known security blocklist and has been actively monitored, having been blocked by PhishDestroy due to its fraudulent nature. The domain resolves to the IP address 209.99.17.56, which is located in the US under AS23005 SWITCH, LTD. Users who have interacted with linkfinancesl.com are strongly advised to take immediate action. It is crucial to change any passwords that may have been compromised and enable two-factor authentication where possible. Users should also monitor their accounts for any unauthorized transactions or changes. It is recommended to run a full security scan on their devices to detect any potential malware or residual threats. Reporting any suspicious communications or activities to appropriate authorities can further help mitigate risks associated with this phishing domain. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260619-605AD7 Favicon MD5: e36fcde565242c1398bad4f3ce05e8e6 TLS cert SHA-256: 92416baade271057028815cc8c3ef7e53c3592c00e3464f5a988793fdaf7cbff ## 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/linkfinancesl.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=linkfinancesl.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.
