# PhishDestroy threat dossier — sephora-jobs.com
================================================================

Fetched:   2026-06-30 09:10:12 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/sephora-jobs.com/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 59/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      4/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar
AlienVault OTX:  2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions)
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registered:      2026-06-12

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-12 06:30:39 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-30 08:20:34 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 09:50:38 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-25 23:29:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Analysis indicates that sephora-jobs.com was used as infrastructure supporting a fake login operation intended to collect user credentials through deceptive authentication or recruitment-themed interfaces. The domain naming pattern suggests an attempt to attract users expecting employment-related interactions and redirect them into credential submission workflows. Such infrastructure is commonly deployed for account takeover, password reuse exploitation, and identity fraud operations. Although the domain is currently offline, prior availability means previous visitors may still face exposure if credentials or personal information were submitted during active campaign periods.

Technical evidence shows that the domain was created on June 12, 2026 and has since been taken offline. Detection telemetry indicates that VirusTotal recorded 4/95 security vendors flagging the domain for malicious activity. Threat intelligence correlation identified the domain in 2 separate threat intelligence pulses and documented its presence on 1 security blocklist. Defensive filtering actions resulted in blocking by PhishDestroy. Reputation analysis assigned the infrastructure a trust score of 0/100, indicating an absence of observed legitimacy signals. Registrar information was not available within the supplied intelligence dataset and therefore cannot be confirmed in this assessment.

Users who interacted with sephora-jobs.com should assume that any credentials entered into forms associated with the site may have been exposed. Immediate mitigation measures include changing passwords for affected accounts, replacing reused credentials across unrelated services, and enabling multi-factor authentication where supported. Security reviews should include examination of account access histories, password reset notifications, and authentication events occurring after the visit. If personal information or employment-related documentation was uploaded, additional monitoring for identity misuse and social engineering attempts is recommended. Network defenders should preserve available indicators associated with the domain and continue monitoring for related infrastructure reappearing under different registrations or hosting environments.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 4/91 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## 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.
