Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies microsoftquarantine.authorised-support.com as an active Microsoft impersonation scam domain posing high risk to visitors seeking support. This domain is specifically engineered to deceive users into believing they are interacting with official Microsoft technical support. By using exact branding terminology such as “quarantine” and “authorised-support,” it masquerades as a legitimate security alert from Microsoft. Threat analysis reveals this site leverages social engineering to trick users into revealing sensitive credentials or downloading malicious software. The presence of Amazon-issued SSL validates the site visually, but does not indicate trustworthiness of content. Without proper verification, victims may enter login details believing they are securing their systems, only to surrender control to attackers. Technical indicators confirm malicious intent. PhishDestroy analysis shows this domain was flagged by three major blocklists and detected by 12 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors. Registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC on September 20, 2024, it is a recently created threat with no legitimate operational history. Google Safe Browsing has already categorized it under SOCIAL_ENGINEERING, signaling active fraudulent activity. While the IP 3.174.46.92 hosts this site, its recent registration date and high blocklist coverage make it a clear and present danger. Users who have visited this site should immediately cease any interaction and avoid entering credentials or downloading files. If login details were entered, change passwords immediately and enable multi-factor authentication on all Microsoft and related accounts. Scan devices with updated antivirus software and monitor financial accounts for unusual activity. Report the domain to Microsoft via its official reporting portal and to local cybersecurity authorities if financial or identity theft is suspected. Exercise heightened caution with any unsolicited “security alert” claiming to originate from Microsoft, and always verify support channels through official Microsoft domains. ## 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/microsoftquarantine.authorised-support.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=microsoftquarantine.authorised-support.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.
