No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2025-10-09 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-02 22:43:25 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-02 20:44:39 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-22 20:20:28 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f2491-aac6-76e7-8fd9-5ee7a4f40490/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/3af812ab-9bce-426b-ab12-81ad687df806 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/openaicli.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.openaicli.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=openaicli.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/openaicli.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/openaicli.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-02 22:44:54 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is openaicli.com a Fake AI Tool Phishing Site? This domain, openaicli.com, is currently under investigation for brand impersonation targeting AI development tools. Analysis indicates the site presents itself as a legitimate command-line interface for AI-assisted coding, with a page title reading 'Codex CLI - Build, debug & deploy with AI.' The domain does not currently host a known crypto drainer or payment skimmer, but its infrastructure aligns with credential harvesting phishing campaigns impersonating developer services. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain was registered on October 09, 2025, through Gandi SAS and resolves to IP address 172.67.135.245. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, and no detections were recorded on VirusTotal (0/95) at the time of assessment. No entries were found on Google Safe Browsing or major blocklists, though this may reflect the domain's recent registration and limited exposure. Current status remains active with risk level classified as under_investigation. No takedown requests have been initiated, and the domain continues to resolve. Users are advised to avoid entering credentials or downloading files from this site. Organizations should monitor network traffic to 172.67.135.245 and consider implementing DNS-based blocking for openaicli.com pending further analysis. The lack of detections does not confirm safety; recent phishing domains often evade initial scans. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260702-39534B TLS cert SHA-256: 2d076ef2716d9a8e7649b93a2012f73aa25bffbcc2d0b5bc2e011a94225f605a ## 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/openaicli.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=openaicli.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.
