Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, riverfi.net, is flagged as a high-risk generic phishing infrastructure targeting financial service users. Analysis indicates the site mimics legitimate banking or payment portals, likely designed to harvest login credentials, personal identification details, or payment card information. No specific drainer kit signatures have been confirmed, but the domain exhibits characteristics consistent with credential theft campaigns, including the use of obfuscated JavaScript and cloned UI elements from known financial platforms. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain was registered on July 07, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with malicious registrations. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3, which is hosted on a content delivery network known for providing anonymity to threat actors. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, a legitimate provider often abused to lend credibility to phishing sites. VirusTotal reports 3 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while Google Safe Browsing currently does not list it as a known threat. No additional blocklist entries have been identified at this time, though the domain remains under active monitoring. The domain is still operational, posing an ongoing risk to unsuspecting users. Response actions include submission to threat intelligence platforms for broader detection and potential takedown efforts. Despite these measures, the domain’s infrastructure and low detection rate on security engines suggest it may evade automated defenses. Users are advised to verify financial service URLs directly through official sources, enable multi-factor authentication, and report suspicious links to their financial institutions. Organizations should update web filtering rules to block riverfi.net and monitor network traffic for connections to 188.114.97.3 to mitigate exposure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: bdb7af2aee54b61dbedeb7e375d1b503 TLS cert SHA-256: 15508ab2844a51ff90643a9426c7774b3e6cde4e7ae8977e752363f231f7d20d ## 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/riverfi.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=riverfi.net 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.
