No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-27 18:23:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-29 12:30:17 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-27 18:24:40 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] paypal.com.mx Fake PayPal Alert On July 27, 2026 the domain paypal.com.mx was observed serving HTTP 301 redirects. The domain is currently listed on one public security blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy mitigation service. VirusTotal records indicate that the domain has been scanned by 91 antivirus and URL‑reputation engines; none of the engines have raised a detection at the time of analysis. The lack of detections does not constitute a safety assurance, as the domain continues to exhibit characteristics typical of credential‑harvesting infrastructure. The domain’s registration details, hosting IP address, autonomous system number, and TLS certificate information have not been disclosed in the available intelligence, limiting the ability to attribute the infrastructure to a specific actor or to assess its geographical origin. No Safe Browsing, Open Threat Exchange, or other reputation feeds have reported additional findings beyond the single blocklist entry. The HTTP 301 response suggests that the site may be redirecting visitors to another location, a common technique used to evade static analysis and to funnel traffic to a credential‑collection page. Because the domain name incorporates the PayPal brand, it is reasonable to infer an attempt to deceive PayPal customers, although the exact content of the landing page has not been captured. Defenders should continue to monitor the domain for changes in DNS resolution, SSL deployment, and content signatures. Networks should enforce existing URL filtering rules that block known malicious domains, and security teams should add paypal.com.mx to deny lists in proxy and endpoint protection solutions. Incident responders who encounter traffic to this domain should treat any associated credentials as compromised and advise affected users to reset their authentication factors. Ongoing intelligence collection is required to determine whether the domain is part of a larger phishing campaign or an isolated operation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 6e107db3ac75cc896b0584c8c4e1361ef49d57e5ed8d898473067b8c4360aa50 ## 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/paypal.com.mx/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=paypal.com.mx 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.
