# PhishDestroy threat dossier — mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-22 06:08:02 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: PayPal ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/91 security vendors flagged this domain Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 162.159.143.12 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Wix.com Ltd. Nameservers: NS_NOT_FOUND Page title: 404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR1 Expires: 2026-09-22 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4d824d023de01f229e601938edcdb7020802d167c0d85fac21c644cf194c9450 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wixstudio.com ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-21 15:22:39 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-22 06:20:20 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-22 00:26:32 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f84d6-41ac-72f7-a09b-3607519dadc8/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-21 15:23:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com — Banking Phishing Report Analysis of the domain mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com indicates that it is actively being used in a banking‑phishing campaign targeting PayPal users. The domain is registered through Wix.com Ltd., a legitimate website‑builder service, which can be abused to obtain short‑lived subdomains. DNS resolution returns the address 162.159.143.12; this IP is part of a Cloudflare network that hosts many unrelated sites, limiting the ability to attribute malicious activity to a single host. The domain appears on one security blocklist and is currently blocked by the PhishDestroy feed, confirming that at least one threat‑intel source has observed malicious use. VirusTotal records show that the domain was submitted to 95 scanning engines, none of which flagged it as malicious; the report explicitly notes that the lack of detections does not constitute proof of safety. Nameserver data could not be retrieved (NS_NOT_FOUND), which may indicate intentional obfuscation or a transient DNS configuration. No additional evidence such as page title, SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, or Safe Browsing verdicts is available in the provided intelligence. Consequently, the primary indicators are the registrar association, the blocklist entry, and the Cloudflare IP resolution. Defenders should add mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com to their deny lists for web traffic and email filtering, monitor DNS queries for resolutions to 162.159.143.12, and enforce strict URL reputation checks. Because the hosting environment is shared, broader network‑level controls such as blocking the entire IP range may cause collateral impact; therefore, rule‑based blocking at the domain level is recommended. Continuous re‑evaluation is required as additional intelligence, such as content analysis or new blocklist entries, may emerge. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b3a28e80142aa4908d146d48f8f4cfdf TLS cert SHA-256: 4d824d023de01f229e601938edcdb7020802d167c0d85fac21c644cf194c9450 ## 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/mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=mypaypalcdn.wixstudio.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
