# PhishDestroy threat dossier — moonferrous.shop ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-03 03:52:46 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/moonferrous.shop/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/91 security vendors flagged this domain AlienVault OTX: 4 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 125.124.123.122 (CN, Yanguan) ASN: AS58461 CT HangZhou IDC Hosting org: Chinanet Registrar: Namecheap, Inc. Registered: 2026-06-06 Expires: 2027-06-06 HTTP response: 530 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2026-06-06 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-12 22:30:39 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-03 04:20:37 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-13 03:48:39 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 19:28:46 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, moonferrous.shop, is currently under investigation for facilitating credential theft campaigns. Analysis indicates it may be designed to harvest login credentials, payment details, or other sensitive user data through deceptive landing pages or fraudulent forms. The infrastructure appears tailored to mimic legitimate services, increasing the likelihood of successful social engineering attacks against unsuspecting visitors. Technical indicators reveal the domain was registered on June 6, 2026, through Namecheap, Inc., a registrar frequently associated with newly observed malicious domains. As of the latest assessment, the domain resolves to the IP address 125.124.123.122 and lacks an SSL certificate, which is atypical for legitimate services. Detection metrics show 0 out of 95 security engines on VirusTotal flagged the domain, suggesting it remains undetected by most automated systems. However, it has been listed on one security blocklist, indicating preliminary concerns from at least one threat intelligence source. Users who have visited moonferrous.shop or interacted with its content should take immediate action to mitigate potential risks. Disconnect any active sessions, clear browser caches and stored credentials, and monitor financial accounts for unauthorized activity. If login credentials were entered, reset passwords for all associated accounts, prioritizing those linked to financial or sensitive services. Consider deploying endpoint detection tools to scan for malware or unauthorized access attempts. Given the domain's recent registration and limited detection, heightened vigilance is advised for any communications or transactions involving this address. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/moonferrous.shop/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=moonferrous.shop 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
