Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies security-bot.work as a confirmed tech support scam infrastructure site. The domain is currently under active investigation as a phishing resource, with no formal brand impersonation detected at this stage. This infrastructure poses a direct risk to users seeking legitimate security services. This domain was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors as of the last scan. It was registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3, and holds a valid Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. The domain was created on May 02, 2026, and currently shows no presence on major threat blocklists. Trust and reputation scores remain critically low due to its recent creation and suspicious configuration. The status of security-bot.work remains under investigation, but users should exercise extreme caution. PhishDestroy recommends blocking the domain at the network level and avoiding any interaction. Organizations are advised to update firewall rules and DNS blacklists to include this domain and its associated IP. Users who accessed the site should scan their devices for malware and reset credentials if any input was submitted. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 5/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 16a75c7824b5223b8e22864354e9e33f TLS cert SHA-256: 7862aafc94196d67bb793ec9351809de9042be91e4848c58db9b5b631be33103 ## 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/security-bot.work/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=security-bot.work 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.
