Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] saharaexpress.co.in used for high‑risk generic phishing Analysis of saharaexpress.co.in indicates that the domain is actively leveraged for generic phishing operations. The site is protected by a Let's Encrypt (YR1) SSL certificate and is registered through Endurance International Group India Private Limited. DNS resolution points to the IP address 108.163.194.170, and the domain is served by the nameservers ns1.superdnssite.com, ns2.superdnssite.com, ns65.superdnssite.com, and ns66.superdnssit. The domain was created on March 22, 2012 and remains active as of the reporting date. Threat intelligence sources show that the domain appears in three AlienVault OTX pulses, and VirusTotal scans have flagged it with detections from 10 of 91 security vendors, reinforcing its malicious reputation. While the specific phishing landing pages have not been publicly disclosed, the convergence of SSL issuance, hosting details, and multiple vendor detections suggests a sustained infrastructure. Defenders should block outbound connections to 108.163.194.170, add the domain and its associated nameservers to deny lists, and monitor for any traffic patterns that reference saharaexpress.co.in. Continued vigilance is recommended given the high risk rating and active status of the infrastructure. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 9/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260718-D5C78D TLS cert SHA-256: c9a93ef7311b4d336416f7130d74d6541c5d0f7c65abda0a84cc5a4076b294ff ## 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/saharaexpress.co.in/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=saharaexpress.co.in 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.
