# PhishDestroy threat dossier — safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-04 17:13:55 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Cloudflare ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 12/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, ESET, Emsisoft, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, MalwareURL, Netcraft, Sophos, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.66.44.136 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Cloudflare, Inc. Nameservers: michael.ns.cloudflare.com, rosalie.ns.cloudflare.com Page title: Suspected Phishing | Cloudflare HTTP response: 403 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-04 12:34:53 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-04 18:20:17 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-04 13:06:13 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f2cb0-d1e3-7003-aca6-04ba6df52553/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-04 13:25:36 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as an elevated-risk brand impersonation threat targeting Cloudflare users. Analysis indicates the site was designed to harvest authentication credentials through a fraudulent login interface masquerading as a legitimate Cloudflare service page, leveraging the domain name safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered through Cloudflare, Inc. and resolves to the IP address 172.66.44.136. The page title was explicitly labeled 'Suspected Phishing | Cloudflare,' and the site employed HSTS and HTTP/3 protocols, along with a Google Trust Services SSL certificate. At the time of assessment, 12 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal had detected the domain as malicious. The domain has since been taken offline, though prior activity suggests it was operational for credential collection purposes. Organizations and users should implement the following mitigation measures specific to brand impersonation and credential theft threats: (1) Block the domain and its resolving IP (172.66.44.136) at the network perimeter to prevent access from internal systems. (2) Monitor for unauthorized access attempts or unusual authentication activity, particularly from credentials that may have been exposed through this or similar phishing campaigns. (3) Deploy email and web filtering rules to detect and quarantine messages containing links to pages.dev subdomains with patterns indicative of brand impersonation (e.g., 'safe-badge-welcome-page-'). (4) Conduct a retrospective review of logs for connections to 172.66.44.136 or the domain to identify potential prior exposure. (5) Enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all critical accounts to mitigate the impact of credential theft. (6) Educate users on identifying brand impersonation tactics, including scrutinizing domain names, SSL certificates, and page titles for inconsistencies with legitimate services. ## 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/safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=safe-badge-welcome-page-00008guide.pages.dev 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.
