# PhishDestroy threat dossier — samarthgkothawale.github.io ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-25 23:42:57 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/samarthgkothawale.github.io/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 56/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 10/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, CyRadar, ESET, Emsisoft, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Netcraft, Sophos, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 185.199.108.153 (US, San Francisco) ASN: AS54113 Fastly, Inc. Hosting org: GitHub, Inc Registrar: GitHub, Inc. Nameservers: NS_NOT_FOUND Page title: NETFLIX_clone HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR2 Expires: 2026-09-02 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 32491b26bfaf7bfb556029ef32299ac4374db34d09eecd4ffd01f21b2c5a8567 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - github.com - github.io - githubusercontent.com ## 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: 2026-07-24 11:01:38 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-26 00:20:25 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-24 12:27:43 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f935b-571b-742a-815d-1f19bd88fc4b/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/samarthgkothawale.github.io crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.samarthgkothawale.github.io Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=samarthgkothawale.github.io AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/samarthgkothawale.github.io URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/samarthgkothawale.github.io/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-24 11:03:00 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Warning: samarthgkothawale Github Domain Is Active Phishing The domain samarthgkothawale.github.io is currently active with a high-risk classification as a phishing threat. Analysis reveals that this domain is registered through GitHub, Inc. and currently resolves to the IP address 185.199.108.153. Security assessments indicate that the domain has been flagged by 10 out of 91 security vendors on VirusTotal, pointing to its hazardous nature. Additionally, it has been included in two known security blocklists, namely PhishDestroy and OpenPhish, further confirming its malicious intent. The domain's nameservers status indicates NS_NOT_FOUND, suggesting possible configurations that may complicate tracing its activities. As of the report date of July 24, 2026, the domain remains active, necessitating immediate caution from potential users or targets. Defenders should block this domain across all organizational networks and inform users to avoid interactions that could lead to credential harvesting or other malicious exploits. Continuous monitoring of this domain and its IP address is advisable, as it may evolve or partner with additional domains linked to similar phishing activities. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 32491b26bfaf7bfb556029ef32299ac4374db34d09eecd4ffd01f21b2c5a8567 ## 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/samarthgkothawale.github.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=samarthgkothawale.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
