Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is penguish.app a phishing site? Analysis of penguish.app, reported on July 19, 2026, indicates it is an active generic phishing infrastructure with a high risk rating. The domain resolves to 172.67.129.182, a Cloudflare‑hosted IP located in Canada, and uses Cloudflare nameservers (dakota.ns.cloudflare.com, kia.ns.cloudflare.com). Registration data shows the domain was created through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, but no further registrant details are disclosed. The site presents a minimal HTTP response of status 403 and a page title of “Just a moment…”, suggesting a possible challenge page or temporary block. SSL is issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 certificate, confirming a valid TLS handshake. Security telemetry places the domain on a single blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy, and VirusTotal reports that 4 of 91 scanners flagged the domain, reinforcing the suspicion of malicious activity. While the exact phishing campaign payload, target brand, or credential‑harvesting page content remains unknown, the combination of Cloudflare hosting, a valid Google certificate, and multiple vendor detections denotes a purposeful attempt to evade casual inspection while maintaining credibility. Defenders should continue to block the domain at perimeter filters, monitor DNS queries for the associated IP and nameservers, and incorporate the observed indicators—IP address, SSL fingerprint, and detection count—into threat intelligence feeds. Ongoing observation is advised to capture any evolution of the hosting or content that may reveal the targeted brand or expanded attack vectors. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: ba9012279e95fcacdc22ebab0241ff73c4f45747239ce36f3bb2a45256de3add ## 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/penguish.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=penguish.app 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.
