Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified the domain proweb.ghost.io as a medium-risk generic phishing site. The domain presents a page titled "Connect & Unlock," which is a common lure used to trick users into revealing sensitive information. Registered since October 2011 through 1API GmbH, this domain has remained active and suspicious over an extended period. Technical analysis reveals that proweb.ghost.io resolves to the IP address 63.176.8.218 and is listed on at least one security blocklist, indicating prior reports of malicious activity. VirusTotal scans have flagged the domain by multiple security vendors, underscoring its potential danger. The usage of the ghost.io subdomain suggests the site leverages a platform typically associated with hosting static content but has been repurposed here for phishing. Currently, proweb.ghost.io remains active and continues to pose a threat to unsuspecting users. Due to its ongoing malicious activity, it is recommended that network defenders and end-users block access to this domain and remain vigilant. PhishDestroy advises monitoring related indicators and applying appropriate security controls to mitigate risks associated with this phishing domain. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 015fe124633494e0f12ca559184431eeb45d2255ce555210b9828d080fa2d649 ## 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/proweb.ghost.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=proweb.ghost.io 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.
