================================================================

Fetched:   2026-06-26 05:32:55 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/ontario.safedrivinggovby.cc/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 54/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      8/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Sophos, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      43.166.232.20
Registrar:       Gname.com Pte. Ltd.
Nameservers:     ["a12.share-dns.com", "b12.share-dns.net"]
Registered:      2026-06-12

## 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: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-13 00:30:58 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-26 06:18:19 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 09:01:37 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-25 21:48:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, ontario.safedrivinggovby.cc, was designed to deceive users into disclosing sensitive login credentials by impersonating official government driving services. The site likely presented fake login portals or forms requesting personal information, such as driver’s license numbers, usernames, and passwords, under the guise of legitimate traffic or licensing services. Such credential theft campaigns are commonly used to gain unauthorized access to accounts, enabling further fraud or identity theft.  Analysis indicates the domain was registered on June 12, 2026, through Gname.com Pte. Ltd., a registrar frequently associated with malicious infrastructure. It resolved to the IP address 43.166.232.20 and was flagged by 8 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, including detection by two major security blocklists. The domain’s creation date and rapid inclusion on blocklists suggest it was part of a short-lived but targeted phishing operation, likely automated to maximize reach before takedown.  If you visited ontario.safedrivinggovby.cc or entered any information on the site, immediate action is required. First, change passwords for any accounts that may have been exposed, prioritizing email, banking, and government service logins. Enable multi-factor authentication where available to add an additional layer of security. Monitor accounts for unusual activity, such as unauthorized logins or transactions, and report any suspicious incidents to relevant financial or identity protection services. Additionally, scan your device for malware using updated security software to ensure no secondary infections were introduced.

## 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.
