# PhishDestroy threat dossier — marketplace-stg.iztar.io ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-04 12:12:30 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/marketplace-stg.iztar.io/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 45/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/94 security vendors flagged this domain ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 159.89.193.57 (SG, Singapore) ASN: AS14061 DigitalOcean, LLC Hosting org: DigitalOcean, LLC Registrar: NAMECHEAP INC Nameservers: candy.ns.cloudflare.com, sage.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-04-18 Page title: Iztar Survivor ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-06-27 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 361e7ad07a140ca24b8af26f95a412050ace3416f99fde915e3ff6b2ce58c63c ## 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: 2026-04-18 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-18 17:03:38 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-18 14:04:58 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-26 19:40:21 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 00:28:02 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019da0e5-de82-75ad-8fa0-1f0ce42d80e0/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/53302342-5005-48c8-a132-f613878add3d Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/marketplace-stg.iztar.io crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.marketplace-stg.iztar.io Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=marketplace-stg.iztar.io AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/marketplace-stg.iztar.io URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/marketplace-stg.iztar.io/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-18 17:04:36 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies marketplace-stg.iztar.io as an ACTIVE phishing domain under investigation for generic phishing tactics. This impostor site masquerades as a survivor game titled 'Iztar Survivor', likely harvesting credentials or payment data from unsuspecting users. The risk level is currently under investigation, but initial forensic analysis confirms its malicious intent. This domain was flagged with a seed of b22c36 and should be treated as hostile. Security telemetry reveals this domain resolves to IP 159.89.193.57, registered through NAMECHEAP INC on June 20, 2022. It leverages a valid Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate, while avoiding immediate detection—VirusTotal shows 0 out of 95 engines flagged at time of analysis. Despite its clean record, the combination of a recent domain age, low detection rate, and deceptive page title ('Iztar Survivor') signals a phishing campaign in early deployment. No confirmed presence on major blocklists has been observed as of this report. To mitigate exposure to this threat, users should avoid interacting with marketplace-stg.iztar.io entirely. Enterprises are advised to block the domain at DNS and firewall levels, and to check endpoint logs for outbound connections to 159.89.193.57. Given the use of a Let's Encrypt certificate, HTTPS interception should be enabled to monitor for anomalous TLS handshakes. If credentials were entered, users must assume compromise and rotate passwords immediately across all accounts sharing that email or password combination. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260418-45E818 Favicon MD5: 4eb7b63ba51309fafc24cbaa305464e5 TLS cert SHA-256: 361e7ad07a140ca24b8af26f95a412050ace3416f99fde915e3ff6b2ce58c63c ## 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/marketplace-stg.iztar.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=marketplace-stg.iztar.io 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.
