# PhishDestroy threat dossier — nachocebu.hostel.town ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-01 10:55:30 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/nachocebu.hostel.town/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 63/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 16/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, OpenPhish, SOCRadar, Sophos, Webroot URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.86.104.14 (US, Staten Island) ASN: AS14956 RouterHosting LLC Hosting org: FranTech Solutions Registrar: Spaceship, Inc. Nameservers: ["launch1.spaceship.net", "launch2.spaceship.net"] Page title: Nacho Hostel Cebu Bulacao - Bulacao, Philippines ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: ZeroSSL GmbH / ZeroSSL ECC DV SSL CA 2 Expires: 2026-08-19 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 67a97cd1381f6984c2c459990d9fa0599869b51cd80116585cb43067ba5f6a76 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - hostel.town ## 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: 2026-06-30 19:27:04 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-30 22:00:31 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-01 12:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-01 00:02:08 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1990-34a6-70dc-bad4-3323272e1638/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/bdacda46-ef7c-4f7c-ac10-7e5ed518056a Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/nachocebu.hostel.town crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.nachocebu.hostel.town Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=nachocebu.hostel.town AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/nachocebu.hostel.town URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/nachocebu.hostel.town/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-30 21:00:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] nachocebu.hostel.town is assessed as high risk due to ongoing generic phishing activity. The domain remains active and is currently being used for malicious campaigns that may target users with deceptive content to steal sensitive information. The threat type identified is generic phishing, which broadly encompasses tactics such as fraudulent forms, credential harvesting, or social engineering schemes. Technical analysis reveals several concrete risk indicators. VirusTotal reports that 16 out of 95 security vendors currently flag this domain as malicious, providing significant corroboration of the threat. nachocebu.hostel.town resolves to the IP address 172.86.104.14. The domain is listed on two separate security blocklists, further substantiating its inclusion on threat intelligence feeds. The website retains the page title "Nacho Hostel Cebu Bulacao - Bulacao, Philippines," which may be used to lure potential victims by impersonating a legitimate hostel or travel service. The domain is still active at the time of this assessment; the registrar and creation date are not provided, but the detection count and blocklist presence are strong indicators of risk. Mitigation steps should include immediate blocking of nachocebu.hostel.town at the network and endpoint level, especially across environments where users may be susceptible to phishing attempts. Security teams should monitor for any related infrastructure, such as associated IPs or similar domains, and update detection rules accordingly. Users should be warned not to interact with the site or input any personal or financial information. Regular awareness training is recommended to help identify similar phishing domains, particularly those leveraging brand impersonation or travel-related lures.

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/nachocebu.hostel.town/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=nachocebu.hostel.town 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.
