Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies paypal-signin.blogspot.com as an active brand impersonation domain engineered to mimic the legitimate PayPal login portal. This domain was flagged as malicious by 21 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, confirming its elevated threat profile. It resolves to IP 142.251.14.132, leverages a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, and is currently hosted on the Blogspot platform. Technical metadata indicates this domain is actively distributing a PayPal credential harvesting page designed to intercept user login details and initiate unauthorized fund transfers. Risk assessment places this domain at an elevated danger level due to its combination of brand exploitation, high VirusTotal detection ratio, and operational hosting on a trusted platform (Blogspot) that may lull users into false security. Current status remains active with no observed takedown at time of analysis. Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with any links or content from paypal-signin.blogspot.com. If exposure has occurred, immediately change PayPal account passwords, enable two-factor authentication, scan connected devices for malware using PhishDestroy’s browser extension, and report the incident to PayPal’s fraud department. Always verify URLs via the official PayPal.com domain before entering sensitive information. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 47788078b14704badf149f54cdedaf05 TLS cert SHA-256: 9eee4b569af4936f4bb2ec420401283750b25f6522bfcf0bed5758c346c078fe ## 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/paypal-signin.blogspot.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=paypal-signin.blogspot.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
