Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain portal-zebec.network is identified as a high-risk generic phishing site impersonating Zebec Network, a brand known for real-time crypto payroll and payments. The domain is currently active and is used to deceive users into providing sensitive credentials. Analysis indicates that portal-zebec.network has been flagged by 14 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a significant level of suspicion. The domain is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and was created on June 15, 2026. The IP address it resolves to is 188.114.96.3. Additionally, the domain appears on 4 security blocklists and has a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100, indicating a complete lack of trust. AlienVault OTX data shows the domain has been referenced in 2 threat intelligence pulses, further corroborating its malicious nature. The current status of portal-zebec.network remains active, posing a high risk to users. To mitigate potential harm, it is recommended that the domain be added to organizational blocklists and users be educated about the specific indicators of this phishing site. Regular monitoring and updating of security measures are also advised to prevent unauthorized access and data breaches. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 14/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 8313f97e8334f3a316b437261b204d8272afb5d4d4cd18e3df0ce2aad4220c83 ## 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/portal-zebec.network/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=portal-zebec.network 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.
