No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-27 20:13:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-28 16:20:20 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-27 20:14:14 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] paypal.vn Fake Banking Phishing Alert The domain paypal.vn is currently flagged as a high‑risk banking phishing site. Analysis shows it is listed on one security blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy service. VirusTotal scans have recorded detections from two of ninety‑one security vendors, indicating that at least a small subset of scanning engines recognize malicious activity associated with the domain. The HTTP response for the root URL returns a 301 redirect, a behavior frequently observed in phishing infrastructure to mask the final landing page or to funnel traffic through intermediate hosts. No additional intelligence such as registrar details, hosting IP address, Autonomous System Number, SSL certificate information, or page title has been disclosed, leaving those infrastructure components undocumented at this time. The domain remains active as of the report date, July 27 2026, and its presence on a blocklist suggests that existing defenses may already be intercepting some traffic, yet the low detection count implies that many environments could still be exposed. Defenders should prioritize adding paypal.vn to URL filtering and DNS blocklists, monitor outbound connections for any attempted redirects to this domain, and consider tightening email gateway rules to flag messages that reference the domain or contain suspicious PayPal‑related language. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as further intelligence such as registrar data, hosting location, or additional vendor detections may emerge, potentially altering the threat posture. ## 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.vn/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=paypal.vn 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.
