Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] pitaes.com Fake Payment Portal Alert This domain, pitaes.com, is identified as an active phishing infrastructure designed to mimic legitimate payment portals. Analysis indicates it targets users by presenting fraudulent payment interfaces, likely harvesting login credentials, financial details, or personal information under false pretenses. The domain’s design and structure suggest it is tailored to deceive visitors into believing they are interacting with a trusted transaction platform, increasing the likelihood of successful credential compromise. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on April 6, 2026, through TUCOWS.COM, CO., a registrar commonly utilized for both legitimate and malicious registrations. As of the latest assessment, the domain resolves to the IP address 104.21.31.165 and remains undetected by security engines, with a VirusTotal detection count of 0/95. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, which, while providing encryption, does not validate the legitimacy of the underlying content. No blocklist entries or prior malicious associations were identified at the time of this report. Users who have visited pitaes.com or interacted with its content are advised to take immediate remedial actions. Any credentials or payment details entered on the site should be considered compromised and reset across all platforms where identical or similar login information may have been reused. System scans using updated security tools are recommended to detect potential secondary infections or data exfiltration. Additionally, affected users should monitor financial statements for unauthorized transactions and report suspicious activity to relevant authorities or financial institutions. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - Public blocklists: now listed on 1 feed - VirusTotal detections: now 1/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260712-F64CD5 Favicon MD5: 3ad61609adaee6cbbba2c376b475b142 TLS cert SHA-256: d0af3cc0806368bceb66d065cd6c32eea52350b071778e1e98d9eec63e189359 ## 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/pitaes.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pitaes.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
