# PhishDestroy threat dossier — pu.ihwlipc.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-18 14:38:46 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pu.ihwlipc.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Brand Impersonation Targeted brand: Google ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 11/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: BitDefender, CRDF, Fortinet, G-Data, Google Safebrowsing, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos, URLQuery, VIPRE, Webroot URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Google Safe Browsing: FLAGGED ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 212.227.169.232 (ES, Logroño) Hosting org: AS8560 IONOS SE Registrar: IONOS SE Nameservers: ns1.frjxp.net, ns2.frjxp.net Registered: 2026-06-13 Expires: 2027-06-13 Page title: Xmas Countdown - Christmas Countdown Template HTTP response: 502 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR1 Expires: 2026-09-12 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d04449be3a976d33541dbd20bf98cecb3fc1b1d194b42519d446338fc95e6972 ## 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: 2026-06-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-19 02:54:14 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-19 01:10:07 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-18 16:20:44 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-19 03:04:36 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019edd5d-f223-7782-a24e-2e1ddffde012/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/d71729a4-b814-419a-b4b3-284c96ab1276 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/pu.ihwlipc.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.pu.ihwlipc.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=pu.ihwlipc.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/pu.ihwlipc.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/pu.ihwlipc.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 13:06:34 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] pu.ihwlipc.com: Active Google Brand Impersonation Phishing Site This domain, pu.ihwlipc.com, is identified as an active brand impersonation phishing campaign targeting Google users. Analysis of the page title, 'Xmas Countdown - Christmas Countdown Template,' suggests an attempt to deceive users through seasonal-themed social engineering tactics, potentially redirecting them to fraudulent login portals or credential harvesting pages. No direct evidence of a crypto drainer kit is observed, but the infrastructure aligns with known phishing frameworks designed to mimic legitimate services under false pretenses. Infrastructure analysis reveals critical technical indicators. The domain resolves to the IP address 212.227.169.232, hosted under AS8560 (IONOS SE) in Spain. It was registered on June 13, 2026, through IONOS SE, a registrar frequently associated with malicious domains. Google Safe Browsing flags this domain as phishing, while VirusTotal reports detection by 11 out of 95 security vendors. Additionally, the domain appears on one security blocklist, and its SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt (YR1), a common choice for both legitimate and malicious sites due to its accessibility. As of the latest assessment, pu.ihwlipc.com remains active and unresolved. The domain's continued operation poses a high risk to users, particularly those targeted through brand impersonation tactics. Immediate mitigation actions are recommended, including blocking the domain at the network level, updating endpoint protection rules, and alerting users to the threat. Given the domain's persistence and the use of trusted infrastructure providers, further monitoring is advised to track potential shifts in tactics or additional malicious subdomains. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260619-386706 TLS cert SHA-256: d04449be3a976d33541dbd20bf98cecb3fc1b1d194b42519d446338fc95e6972 ## 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/pu.ihwlipc.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=pu.ihwlipc.com 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.
