registry.zmgov.org: Confirmed Phishing Site

Analysis of registry.zmgov.org shows a live web service returning HTTP 200 with the page title “Zambia Ship Registry”. The domain is hosted behind Cloudflare, resolving to IP 188.114.96.3, which is geolocated to Canada and associated with Cloudflare, Inc. DNS is served by lily.ns.cloudflare.com and yahir.ns.cloudflare.com. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 identifier, confirming a valid TLS chain. Registration records indicate the domain was created through GoDaddy.com, LLC. VirusTotal has flagged the domain in 10 of 91 security vendor scans, and the domain appears on one public blocklist. PhishDestroy has also listed the site as blocked. The current status is active. Defenders should block the domain at the network perimeter, add the IP address to threat intelligence feeds, and monitor for any related phishing campaigns targeting maritime or shipping entities. Further investigation is required to determine the exact content and credential‑harvesting mechanisms employed.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 10/91 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       b0a102991e7332643ae57365023c00c8
TLS cert SHA-256:      47e7872c9993d4ead655bd377e899464b5657422139ce3765fd51f10277858ad

## 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.
