Is meritking5007.com.tr a phishing site?

Analysis of meritking5007.com.tr indicates that the domain is actively used for malicious purposes and is classified as a high‑risk generic phishing operation. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 181.174.166.73, which is registered to the Offshore Racks S.A. facility in Pennsylvania and is currently listed on a single security blocklist. PhishDestroy has already taken measures to block the domain, and nine out of ninety‑one VirusTotal scanners have flagged it as malicious, reinforcing the suspicion of phishing activity. The threat intelligence feed shows the domain is still operational as of the report date, July 19, 2026, suggesting that mitigation actions have not fully neutralised the underlying infrastructure. No public page content, landing‑page screenshots, or brand impersonation details have been released, leaving the exact phishing payload and victim‑targeting tactics unconfirmed. Defenders should immediately add meritking5007.com.tr to URL filtering and firewall deny lists, monitor traffic to 181.174.166.73 for anomalous connections, and consider network‑level sinks for any outbound communications to the IP. Continued observation of the associated blocklist entry is advised to detect any subsequent re‑registration attempts or related domains that may share the same hosting environment.

## 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.
