No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-28 01:13:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-28 12:55:51 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-28 01:14:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] risehighq.live Generic Phishing Alert risehighq.live is an active domain observed on July 27, 2026 that has been classified as a high‑risk generic phishing site. The domain is registered through MarkMonitor Inc., a registrar commonly used by legitimate enterprises, which may lend the name some perceived legitimacy. DNS resolution returns two authoritative name servers, ns911a.microsoftinternetsafety.net and ns911b.microsoftinternetsafety.net, both appearing to be hosted on the Microsoft infrastructure. The web server responds with an HTTP 302 status code, indicating an immediate redirect to another location; this redirect behavior aligns with typical phishing infrastructure that forwards victims to credential‑harvesting pages. VirusTotal analysis shows that 15 of 91 security vendors flagged risehighq.live as malicious, providing independent confirmation of its suspicious nature. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy service, reinforcing the consensus that it is being used for malicious purposes. No additional public threat‑intel sources such as OTX or Safe Browsing entries are referenced in the current data set, and the page title or targeted brand has not been disclosed, leaving the exact impersonation details uncertain. The combination of a high‑risk rating, active blocklist entries, multiple vendor detections, and the use of a reputable registrar suggests a deliberate attempt to exploit the trust associated with the Microsoft‑related name servers. Defenders should add risehighq.live to deny‑list policies, monitor DNS queries for the domain, and enforce blocking of any HTTP redirects to it at the firewall or proxy level. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as the threat actor may modify hosting, redirect targets, or underlying payloads in future iterations. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 47cf9d52720eb8cb1e973f7b0172ae325cb45aaff2c29221b976968b02f882e6 ## 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/risehighq.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=risehighq.live 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.
