Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, mertiking50999.com, is actively engaged in credential theft phishing targeting users of the Meritking platform. The site presents itself as an official login portal, using the page title 'Meritking Resmi Giriş 2026 - Meritking - Meritking Güncel Adresi' to mimic legitimate entry points for the service. Analysis indicates the domain is designed to harvest user credentials, likely for unauthorized access to accounts or financial exploitation. The use of localized language and branding elements suggests a targeted campaign aimed at Turkish-speaking users familiar with the Meritking service. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple indicators of malicious intent. The domain was registered on June 17, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. VirusTotal detection shows 3 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while it appears on one security blocklist and has been referenced in two threat intelligence pulses on AlienVault OTX. The domain resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3 and employs an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services, which may lend an appearance of legitimacy to unsuspecting users. Gridinsoft assigns the domain a trust score of 0/100, further corroborating its high-risk status. Users who have visited mertiking50999.com or entered credentials on the site should take immediate action to mitigate potential risks. First, any passwords entered on the site should be changed immediately across all platforms where the same credentials may have been reused. Affected users are advised to monitor their accounts for unauthorized activity and enable multi-factor authentication where available. Additionally, system scans using updated security tools are recommended to detect any secondary payloads or malware that may have been delivered. Organizations should consider blocking the domain and associated IP address (188.114.96.3) at the network level to prevent further access by employees or clients. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 3/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: 265a3fd1be06d863e0fc1bbd9e7d43a5e0e0de33ecce8e6b4a2e8793df2177b2 ## 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/mertiking50999.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=mertiking50999.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.
