================================================================

Fetched:   2026-07-23 00:44:23 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/phila.revenue-zq.cc/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 90/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      4/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, SOCRadar, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registered:      2026-06-12

## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------

phila.revenue-zq.cc Safety Check — Phishing Detected

PhishDestroy identifies phila.revenue-zq.cc as a generic phishing threat. This domain was designed to mimic legitimate revenue or tax-related services, likely targeting users with fake login pages or credential harvesting forms. The site posed a significant risk of stealing personal information, such as usernames, passwords, or financial data, through deceptive prompts. Its structure suggests a broad phishing campaign rather than a targeted attack, making it dangerous for anyone who might have encountered it.

Investigation reveals that phila.revenue-zq.cc was flagged as under investigation before being taken offline. VirusTotal data shows 4 out of 95 security vendors detected it as malicious, indicating it evaded initial scanning but was caught by PhishDestroy's analysis. The domain's registration details, while not fully public, point to a recent creation date typical of phishing setups. The risk level was assessed as under investigation due to its active threat potential before takedown, and the unique seed fdd57b confirms this specific case.

If a user visited phila.revenue-zq.cc, they should immediately change passwords for any accounts entered on the site and enable two-factor authentication. Scan devices for malware using updated antivirus software. Monitor financial accounts for unauthorized transactions and report the incident to local cybercrime authorities. Avoid reusing passwords and consider using a password manager. PhishDestroy recommends staying vigilant against similar phishing domains and verifying URLs before entering sensitive data.

## 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.
