qfsweb3.net Safety Check — Phishing Detected

This domain, qfsweb3.net, is currently active and has been identified as a generic phishing site. The authoritative name server is ns1.host-forest.com, indicating that the domain resolves to a hosting environment managed by Host Forest. VirusTotal reports that three out of ninety‑one scanned security vendors flagged the domain as malicious, providing independent confirmation of its malicious nature.

An HTTP request to the root URL returns a 200 OK status, meaning the site delivers content rather than being a parked or dead domain. The domain is listed on at least one external security blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy protection service, further corroborating its classification as a phishing resource. Registration details show the domain was obtained through TuringSign Inc., doing business as Cosmotown, which does not appear to be a reputable registrar for legitimate services.

The limited visibility into the site’s content—no page title or brand information has been disclosed—leaves the exact lure and credential‑harvesting tactics uncertain. Defenders should block any network traffic to qfsweb3.net at the perimeter and DNS levels, ensure that endpoint protection solutions ingest the current VirusTotal detection data, and monitor for any related indicators such as the hosting provider’s IP range. Because the domain continues to resolve and serve content, ongoing surveillance is advised to capture any evolution in the phishing campaign, including potential changes to the payload or targeted brands.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       8fa68471eca5ede96879f2b52a439160
TLS cert SHA-256:      3d4d1ba215b7cbcf3bfcd28f4a1948a2edd24a50759e6677603feeb52fddeb87

## 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.
