Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] penguinonsol.com is confirmed to be operating as a credential harvesting site, actively targeting victims to steal login credentials under the guise of a legitimate service. The domain leverages a freshly registered name and a free SSL certificate to appear trustworthy while hosting a fake login portal designed to capture user credentials. As of the latest analysis, the campaign remains active with no current detections on VirusTotal, indicating a low-profile but high-risk operation aimed at unsuspecting users. This domain was flagged with a risk level of under_investigation and exhibits multiple red flags across several technical indicators. VirusTotal reports 0 detections out of 95 scanning engines, showing that it has evaded detection by antivirus solutions as of seed 98c747. The domain was registered through NAMECHEAP INC on January 23, 2026, and resolves to the IP address 216.198.79.1. The domain is secured with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which is commonly exploited by threat actors to lend credibility to phishing sites. Notably, there are no entries on public blocklists at the time of this assessment, and trust scores remain uncalculated due to the domain's recent creation. To mitigate the risk posed by this credential harvesting campaign, users and organizations should take immediate action. Block the domain penguinonsol.com and its associated IP address 216.198.79.1 at the network perimeter to prevent access to the phishing portal. Educate users to verify the authenticity of websites, especially those requesting login credentials, and encourage the use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) to reduce the impact of stolen credentials. Organizations should monitor for any new subdomains or variations of this domain and report the activity to relevant cybersecurity authorities such as CISA or local Computer Emergency Response Teams (CERTs). Additionally, updating endpoint protection solutions to include behavioral analysis and sandboxing can help detect and block similar low-signature threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: ddc76d226fb91a45c873083687186d79 TLS cert SHA-256: 825ea58f84c10c6c5725b1327e387c4f685acead51cee499e0e5c5dfa2f906db ## 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/penguinonsol.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=penguinonsol.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.
