No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-12 11:15:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-12 11:15:09 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 00:20:34 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ebb1b-bb43-7221-8092-473dde429463/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/sam-string.github.io crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.sam-string.github.io Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=sam-string.github.io AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/sam-string.github.io URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/sam-string.github.io/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 14:24:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, sam-string.github.io, is actively engaged in credential theft operations targeting users through deceptive GitHub Pages infrastructure. Analysis indicates the site impersonates legitimate login portals or error pages to trick visitors into submitting sensitive authentication details, including usernames, passwords, and potentially multi-factor authentication codes. The domain leverages GitHub's hosting service to appear trustworthy, exploiting the platform's reputation to bypass initial user scrutiny and security filters. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 12, 2026, through GitHub, Inc., and remains active as of this report. It resolves to the IP address 185.199.108.153 and is flagged by 6 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal. The domain appears on one security blocklist, and its SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt (R12), a common choice for both legitimate and malicious sites. The page title, 'Site not found · GitHub Pages,' suggests an attempt to mimic a benign error page while potentially hosting hidden credential harvesting forms or redirecting users to external phishing pages. Users who have visited sam-string.github.io should immediately terminate any active sessions and revoke any credentials entered on the site. Reset passwords for all accounts where the same credentials may have been reused, prioritizing email, financial, and administrative accounts. Enable multi-factor authentication where available, using app-based or hardware tokens rather than SMS-based methods. Monitor accounts for unauthorized activity, including login attempts, password changes, or unfamiliar transactions. Network administrators should block the domain and its resolving IP address (185.199.108.153) at the perimeter firewall and DNS levels to prevent further exposure. Report the incident to internal security teams or relevant authorities for further investigation and mitigation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: ea69bc711cb9d45698d2fdaa4854d7dc086acd3a9c350164909b688ac7c0631f ## 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/sam-string.github.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=sam-string.github.io 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.
