Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain sharkmonolith.shop is currently flagged as an active credential theft operation. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to harvest login credentials, likely through fraudulent login portals or deceptive forms. The domain remains operational, with no signs of takedown or mitigation as of the latest assessment. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 12, 2026, and resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3. It is flagged by 5 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, with detections categorized under credential theft rather than generic phishing. The domain appears on one security blocklist and is associated with four threat intelligence pulses in AlienVault OTX. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, and the site employs Cloudflare as its content delivery network, alongside HTTP/3 for enhanced performance and potential evasion of traditional detection mechanisms. The risk level for sharkmonolith.shop is assessed as elevated due to its active status, use of evasive technologies, and confirmed presence on multiple threat intelligence platforms. Organizations and users are advised to block the domain at the network level and monitor for any attempts to access it. Endpoint protection solutions should be updated to include this domain in their deny lists. Additionally, security teams should review logs for connections to 188.114.97.3 and investigate any associated user activity, particularly failed or unusual login attempts. If this domain was accessed, credentials should be reset immediately, and multi-factor authentication should be enforced for all accounts. ## 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/sharkmonolith.shop/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=sharkmonolith.shop 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.
