# PhishDestroy threat dossier — mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-30 17:11:08 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 83/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 12/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Sophos, URLQuery, Webroot ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: NameSilo, LLC !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!! NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com) for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence. Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket — NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/namesilo-killed-our-twitter https://phishdestroy.io/xmrwallet-namesilo-exposed Nameservers: ["meiling.ns.cloudflare.com", "morgan.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-04-21 Page title: reCAPTCHA Demo ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-07-02 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 5102617115897d08acab9afbfc58d8082aff6260cad83852153917633e037732 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - dvhtechnology.com ## 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: 2026-04-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-21 15:20:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-29 19:40:27 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-21 19:10:59 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019daffa-5ce7-7017-bed1-52e53052a6d1/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-21 15:21:33 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com as a live credential-harvesting phishing site under active investigation. This domain is designed to mimic legitimate mail services and trick users into surrendering login credentials. The immediate risk level is classified as under_investigation pending deeper behavioral analysis, but current indicators strongly suggest active exploitation in the wild. This domain was flagged with 0 out of 95 VirusTotal detections as of the latest scan, indicating no antivirus signatures or behavioral rules yet flag it as overtly malicious. The domain resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3 and operates under a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which may enhance its credibility. Registered through NameSilo, LLC on November 26, 2025, the domain is newly minted and has not yet appeared on major threat intelligence blocklists or domain reputation feeds. However, the combination of recent registration, low detection rate, and SSL certificate suggests an emerging threat likely leveraging fresh infrastructure to avoid early detection. To mitigate risk, organizations should immediately block inbound and outbound traffic to mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com at the network perimeter using DNS sinkholing or firewall rules. Users should be warned via security awareness training to avoid clicking links or entering credentials on suspicious mail login pages. If credential exposure is suspected, prompt password resets and multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforcement are strongly recommended to prevent account takeover. Security teams should also monitor for related domains registered through NameSilo or using similar naming patterns (e.g., mail-*.dvhtechnology.com) as this campaign may expand rapidly. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 6eb4a43cb64c97f76562af703893c8fd TLS cert SHA-256: 5102617115897d08acab9afbfc58d8082aff6260cad83852153917633e037732 ## 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/mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=mail-nwsteel.dvhtechnology.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.
