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: 2026-04-09 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-26 17:17:36 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-26 15:20:05 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 04:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-26 18:16:44 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0481-3e6c-74fe-91d4-9303c09ac109/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/ea7d8ff1-b87b-4c46-93be-4261ccd7173c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/nvidiadriver.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.nvidiadriver.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=nvidiadriver.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/nvidiadriver.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/nvidiadriver.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 17:31:05 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] nvidiadriver.net is identified as a domain involved in generic phishing activities, posing a significant risk to users who may visit the site. The domain is designed to mimic legitimate NVIDIA driver update pages, potentially leading users to download malicious software or provide sensitive information, thus compromising security and data integrity. Analysis indicates that nvidiadriver.net has been flagged by 14 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a moderate to high level of suspicion. The domain is registered through HOSTINGER operations, UAB, and was created on April 09, 2026. Additionally, the domain has been found in 4 threat intelligence pulses on AlienVault OTX, further corroborating its involvement in phishing schemes. The IP address 95.216.92.207 to which the domain resolves is also associated with malicious activities, indicating a well-coordinated infrastructure to carry out these attacks. If users have visited nvidiadriver.net, they should immediately check their systems for any signs of malware or unauthorized access. It is recommended to run a comprehensive security scan using up-to-date antivirus software and to change any passwords that may have been entered on the site. Users should also monitor their financial and personal accounts for any suspicious activity. Reporting the incident to the relevant security authorities or IT teams can help mitigate further risks and prevent the domain from causing more harm. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260626-62151D ## 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/nvidiadriver.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=nvidiadriver.net 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.
