Registrar: Dynadot Inc Nameservers: desi.ns.cloudflare.com, seamus.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-22 Expires: 2027-06-22 Page title: Portal Reply Academy · Backend API Development Courses in Korea ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-22 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 788cf5825cfe39b42fba469a3b7557d9f3769f1df70f1dc8d4288be1c3330d89 ## 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: 2026-06-22 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-02 15:12:20 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-02 13:35:35 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-03 04:20:37 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-03 03:02:48 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f22f4-a485-774d-a09e-ada20cc043cc/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/c0960fa9-0e37-4a12-94ef-843051c21d2b Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/portalreply.digital crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.portalreply.digital Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=portalreply.digital AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/portalreply.digital URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/portalreply.digital/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-02 15:16:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, portalreply.digital, is flagged as a phishing site impersonating an educational academy offering backend API development courses in Korea. The page title, 'Portal Reply Academy · Backend API Development Courses in Korea,' suggests an attempt to deceive users seeking legitimate technical training, likely to harvest credentials or distribute malicious payloads under the guise of course enrollment. No direct association with known drainer kits or cryptocurrency scams has been observed, but the site aligns with brand impersonation tactics targeting niche educational markets. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 22, 2026, through Dynadot Inc, a registrar commonly used for both legitimate and malicious registrations. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which has not been widely flagged in threat intelligence feeds. VirusTotal reports 0 detections out of 95 engines, indicating the domain has not yet been broadly recognized as malicious. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, providing a superficial layer of legitimacy. No entries in Google Safe Browsing or other major blocklists have been recorded as of this investigation. The domain remains active, with no takedown or mitigation actions observed. The lack of prior detections and the recent registration date suggest the campaign may still be in its early stages, increasing the risk of undetected compromise for visitors. Users are advised to avoid interacting with the site, particularly inputting credentials or downloading materials. Organizations should monitor network traffic to 188.114.96.3 and consider blocking the domain at the DNS or proxy level to prevent potential credential theft or malware distribution. Further monitoring of the IP and registrar activity is recommended to identify related infrastructure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260702-9D1158 Favicon MD5: 09a7794b599080e2b29f3212831818af TLS cert SHA-256: 788cf5825cfe39b42fba469a3b7557d9f3769f1df70f1dc8d4288be1c3330d89 ## 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/portalreply.digital/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=portalreply.digital 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.
