Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, recovery-portal.github.io, is presently flagged as an active phishing endpoint targeting user credentials. Infrastructure analysis reveals the site is hosted on GitHub Pages infrastructure, resolving to the IP address 185.199.108.153, which is registered to GitHub, Inc. in the United States. The domain currently returns an HTTP 404 status, though this does not indicate takedown; phishing pages may still be accessible via direct paths or conditional routing. Detection by ten security vendors on VirusTotal, combined with its presence on one security blocklist, supports the classification as a high-risk phishing resource. The domain was registered through GitHub, Inc., and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate issued under the YR2 intermediate. Nameserver records are absent, consistent with GitHub Pages' default configuration. Technologies detected include Varnish, GitHub Pages, and Fastly, suggesting the use of standard GitHub-hosted static content delivery with caching layers. While the exact phishing kit or target brand remains unconfirmed, the domain name and path structure imply an intent to deceive users into submitting sensitive login credentials under the guise of account recovery or verification. Defenders should treat this domain as an active threat. The absence of nameserver records does not reduce risk, as GitHub Pages domains are frequently abused due to their free hosting and trusted infrastructure. Network-level blocking of 185.199.108.153 is recommended for environments where GitHub Pages is not required for legitimate operations. Monitoring for subdomain variations or related GitHub Pages repositories is advised, as attackers often rotate similar domains to evade detection. The domain remains active as of July 12, 2026, and should be prioritized for immediate mitigation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 32491b26bfaf7bfb556029ef32299ac4374db34d09eecd4ffd01f21b2c5a8567 ## 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/recovery-portal.github.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=recovery-portal.github.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
