Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged under active investigation for credential harvesting phishing, a threat type targeting user authentication data through deceptive login interfaces. Analysis indicates the site mimics legitimate search or portal services, as suggested by its 'LunaSearch' page title, to trick victims into submitting sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, or multifactor authentication codes. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain lunasearch.net was registered on May 15, 2025, through NAMECHEAP INC and currently resolves to the IP address 35.157.26.135. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, providing HTTPS encryption that may enhance the site's perceived legitimacy. As of the latest scan, VirusTotal reports 0/95 detections, indicating no antivirus engines or security vendors have flagged the domain at this time. No entries exist on major blocklists or threat intelligence feeds, and the domain remains operational without takedown or sinkholing. Mitigation steps specific to credential harvesting phishing include immediate network-level blocking of the domain and its associated IP address (35.157.26.135) at firewalls and DNS resolvers. Security teams should monitor for internal traffic to lunasearch.net and conduct retrospective log analysis to identify potential exposure. End-user education should emphasize verifying domain authenticity before entering credentials, particularly for sites mimicking search portals or login pages. Given the domain's recent registration and lack of prior detection, proactive hunting for related infrastructure (e.g., domains with similar naming patterns or hosted on the same IP) is recommended to preempt further campaigns. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 2/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260712-DEFB53 Favicon MD5: 8ff7161205477165e78990019166dfea TLS cert SHA-256: af63cdb0a7a9ce6c4717fdbf2e1ad2defa32ca137005df81405da560f645aa7f ## 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/lunasearch.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=lunasearch.net 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.
