PhishDestroy threat report

Overview

PhishDestroy’s automated intake flagged proton.hk.cn because VirusTotal reported a malicious detection for the domain. The AI assessment identified the site as an impersonation of ProtonVPN, noting that the official domain is protonvpn.com while the recorded page title reads “ProtonVPN - 极致安全的瑞士隐私保护 VPN | 官方网站”. The domain was first seen by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-23 and returned an HTTP 200 response on that date.

How the scam works

Brand‑impersonation phishing creates a replica of a legitimate service’s branding and wording to trick users into disclosing credentials, installing software, or making payments. Attackers host the counterfeit page on a look‑alike domain and rely on the trusted brand’s reputation to harvest information or funds.

Evidence

VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-10-19 and recorded four detections, including one malicious label from CRDF and three suspicious labels from Fortinet, Gridinsoft and alphaMountain.ai. Google Safe Browsing did not flag the site on 2026-10-23. Spamhaus DBL listed the domain as phishing on 2026-10-23, and OTX showed four related pulses on the same day. External blocklists MetaMask and SEAL contained the domain, and urlscan.io returned a malicious verdict with a score of 100, categorising it as phishing and associating it with the Protonmail brand. PhishDestroy’s internal list also marks the domain as malicious.

Infrastructure

The recorded IP address is 188.114.96.3, belonging to Cloudflare, Inc., with the recorded country listed as Canada. The TLS certificate observed on 2026-10-23 was issued by Google Trust Services, is valid from 2026-09-16 to 2026-12-15, and covers proton.hk.cn and its subdomains. The domain is 96 days old, uses Cloudflare’s WAF, and DNSSEC was not enabled.

What to do

Visitors should avoid entering any ProtonVPN credentials or payment information on this site; if they have already done so, they should change the affected passwords immediately. Defenders should block the domain proton.hk.cn at the network perimeter and monitor for outbound connections to the recorded Cloudflare IPs. Continue to follow updates from PhishDestroy and other threat feeds for any changes in the site’s behavior.

Questions about proton.hk.cn

Is proton.hk.cn legit?

No. PhishDestroy classifies proton.hk.cn as a Celer impersonation page (risk: critical, 100/100); it was first detected on 2026-10-23. VirusTotal: 4/92 engines flag it. Listed on Spamhaus DBL. Treat the site as unsafe.

Is proton.hk.cn safe to connect a wallet?

No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on proton.hk.cn. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.

What should I do if I used proton.hk.cn?

Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
Recorded subdomains1

Hostnames retained in the domain record or Certificate Transparency cache. A hostname alone does not establish current availability or malicious activity.

An estimated time describes an observation window. It does not prove a registrar action or the exact moment a site became unavailable.

Stored observation history2

Dated changes retained by the monitor and source collectors. Newest observations appear first; source states are not proof of a takedown.

After a phishing incident

Recommendations & Advice for Victims

Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.

What should I do immediately?

Urgent

Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.

  • Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
  • Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
  • Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site

What information should I collect for my report?

FBI guidelines

Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗

  • Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
  • Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
  • Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
  • All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including proton.hk.cn)
  • Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used

Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.

Where should I report the scam?

  • FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
  • Europol — European cybercrime reporting (EU)
  • Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
  • Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately

A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.

How do phishing scams typically work?

  • Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
  • Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
  • Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
  • AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect

How can I protect myself in the future?

  • Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
  • Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
  • "Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines

About this reportSources, observation dates and corrections

This report combines saved page captures, registration and network records, scanner results and PhishDestroy reporting history. Each source keeps its own observation date. Open a source report to inspect the original result.

The AI-assisted analysis was written on . It describes the evidence available at that time; later source checks can change.

A capture documents what was shown. A scanner result records that provider’s assessment at the time of its check. Neither a valid certificate nor a zero-detection result is a guarantee of safety.
