This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-17 18:44:11 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-17 19:24:41 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 12:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-18 00:14:29 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ed676-b9fb-7129-93af-ac08368dd3e6/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/1a0c1b48-1e88-4543-951a-0847f226fe16 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/riverhod.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.riverhod.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=riverhod.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/riverhod.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/riverhod.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 20:07:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain riverhod.xyz is assessed as having an elevated risk level and is categorized as a generic phishing threat. This domain impersonates RiverNet, a legitimate internet service provider, and poses a significant risk of credential theft and further malicious activities. Analysis indicates that riverhod.xyz has been flagged by 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a low but notable level of suspicion. The domain is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and resolves to the IP address 212.43.158.235. It was created on June 11, 2026. The domain is currently offline and appears on one security blocklist. The page title found during analysis is 'RiverNet — быстрый и приватный доступ в интернет', which translates to 'RiverNet — fast and private internet access'. This title is designed to mimic the legitimate RiverNet service, potentially misleading users into believing they are accessing a genuine site. To mitigate the threat posed by this phishing domain, users are advised to avoid clicking on any links or entering credentials on websites that do not have a verified Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificate. Network administrators should consider blocking the IP address 212.43.158.235 and the domain riverhod.xyz at the network level to prevent access. Additionally, organizations should implement and enforce robust security policies, including regular security awareness training to educate employees about the signs of phishing attacks and how to report them. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260617-313A51 Favicon MD5: d8fa2c538681d3d72b0b3c327ece1104 TLS cert SHA-256: a37762fe6e2b1d29780f8a8a8cc849d1b62b6343144de24f6e28654e5c692976 ## 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 (volunteer 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/riverhod.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=riverhod.xyz 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
