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

Fetched:   2026-07-22 02:39:24 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/post.857685.com/

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

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      8/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-13 00:31:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-22 04:20:29 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 09:01:51 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

Is post.857685.com a Credential Harvesting Scam Site?

This domain, post.857685.com, is flagged as a generic phishing threat specializing in credential harvesting. Analysis indicates no direct association with a specific brand or known phishing kit, though its infrastructure aligns with common phishing campaigns targeting email and cloud service credentials. The site operates without visible branding, relying on deceptive subdomain patterns and social engineering to trick users into submitting login details.  Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators of compromise. The domain was registered on June 12, 2026, through an undisclosed registrar, with no associated IP address currently resolvable. VirusTotal reports 8 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while it appears on one security blocklist. Google Safe Browsing status is not explicitly documented, but the domain is actively blocked by at least one threat intelligence feed. The creation date suggests a recently deployed operation, likely intended for short-term exploitation before detection.  As of the latest assessment, post.857685.com has been taken offline, reducing immediate risk to users. However, the domain remains registered, and similar infrastructure may resurface under different subdomains or top-level domains. Users who interacted with the site should assume credential exposure and initiate password resets on affected accounts. Organizations are advised to monitor for related indicators of compromise, including the domain seed identifier c08bae, and update blocklists to prevent future access attempts.

## 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.
