# PhishDestroy threat dossier — pikashows.tv ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-13 04:39:32 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pikashows.tv/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Chong Lua Dao, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.132.18 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Spaceship, Inc. Nameservers: anita.ns.cloudflare.com, keaton.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-02-13 Expires: 2027-02-13 Page title: PikaShow APK Download v93 Latest Version (For Android) 2026 HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-09 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4787f8e23ee45cdad8f66799cb4370473b946c824d7e94bff1b2d49b9c94f2be ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-06 15:07:59 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-13 04:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f378a-3310-744f-890b-8a8786f956e0/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pikashows.tv crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pikashows.tv Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pikashows.tv AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pikashows.tv URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pikashows.tv/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-06 15:34:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, pikashows.tv, is identified as a high-risk generic phishing site specifically targeting users seeking Android APK files. The site presents itself as a source for PikaShow APK version 93, a popular streaming application, but analysis indicates it likely distributes malicious or counterfeit software. Users lured into downloading the APK may expose their devices to malware, spyware, or unauthorized data collection, posing significant risks to personal data and device integrity. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on February 13, 2026, through Spaceship, Inc., and currently resolves to the IP address 172.67.132.18. Despite its recent creation, the domain has already been flagged by 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting early detection of its malicious intent. The site employs a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which, while providing encryption, does not validate the legitimacy of the content being distributed. No additional blocklist entries were identified at the time of analysis, but the domain remains active and unmitigated. Users who have visited pikashows.tv or downloaded the purported APK file should take immediate action to mitigate potential risks. Disconnect the device from the network to prevent further data exfiltration and perform a full antivirus scan using updated security tools. If the APK was installed, factory reset the device to remove any persistent threats. Monitor financial accounts and personal data for signs of compromise, and consider revoking permissions for any suspicious applications. Avoid re-engaging with the domain or similar sites offering unauthorized software downloads. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 35c8fef8ad3994045a0e84cdec57c54d TLS cert SHA-256: 4787f8e23ee45cdad8f66799cb4370473b946c824d7e94bff1b2d49b9c94f2be ## 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/pikashows.tv/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pikashows.tv 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.
