Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, recovery-schwan.com, is actively engaged in credential theft operations designed to compromise financial accounts. Analysis indicates the site presents itself as a legitimate payment or recovery portal, using deceptive login forms to capture usernames, passwords, and multi-factor authentication codes. Victims are typically redirected here through malicious links in emails, SMS messages, or compromised advertisements, where they are prompted to enter sensitive account details under false pretenses. The threat extends beyond immediate data loss, as stolen credentials are frequently used for unauthorized transactions, account takeovers, and identity fraud. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple red flags confirming the malicious nature of this domain. The site is flagged by 2 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, a low but notable detection rate suggesting targeted or evasive tactics. The domain was registered on July 01, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. The creation date is particularly suspicious, as it predates the current year, indicating potential domain spoofing or a typo-squatting attempt. The site resolves to the IP address 172.67.167.216, which is part of a content delivery network known for masking the true origin of malicious infrastructure. Additionally, the use of Cloudflare services and Google Trust Services SSL certificates provides a veneer of legitimacy, further complicating detection efforts. If you or someone you know has visited recovery-schwan.com or entered any credentials on the site, immediate action is required to mitigate risk. First, disconnect the affected device from the internet to prevent potential data exfiltration. Next, change the passwords for all financial accounts, email addresses, and any other services where the same credentials may have been reused. Enable multi-factor authentication wherever possible, using app-based or hardware tokens rather than SMS-based methods. Monitor all financial statements and account activity for unauthorized transactions, and report any suspicious activity to the relevant institution. Consider running a full scan of the device using updated security software to detect and remove any malware that may have been installed. Finally, report the domain to your local cybersecurity authority or a dedicated fraud reporting platform to assist in broader takedown efforts. ## 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-schwan.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=recovery-schwan.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.
