# PhishDestroy threat dossier — signets.social ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-17 02:44:32 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/signets.social/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 87/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Fortinet Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 193.168.141.146 (RO, Bucharest) ASN: AS39622 ZERGRUSH SRL Hosting org: Zergrush SRL Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: ns3.my-ndns.com, ns4.my-ndns.com Registered: 2026-07-05 Expires: 2027-07-05 Page title: Signet — приватный мессенджер HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YE1 Expires: 2026-10-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: cb89cd47a469d0f185d0729903b1c6acdacbb7cd3630dde9b729b21d0cce8ecf ## 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: 2026-07-05 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-08 20:35:50 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-17 04:20:40 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-09 04:09:12 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f4302-0e84-72d2-8c61-15c658c26be1/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/signets.social crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.signets.social Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=signets.social AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/signets.social URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/signets.social/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-08 20:46:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as a high-risk phishing threat specifically targeting users of private messenger applications. Analysis indicates the site signets.social impersonates legitimate secure communication platforms under the guise of a "private messenger," a common tactic to harvest credentials or distribute malicious payloads. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple concerning indicators. The domain resolves to IP address 193.168.141.146 and was registered on July 05, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. Security vendor detection is minimal but notable, with 1 out of 95 engines on VirusTotal flagging the domain. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, providing a false sense of security. No significant blocklist presence or low trust scores were observed, suggesting the campaign may still be in its early stages or employing evasion techniques. Mitigation against this specific threat type requires immediate action. Network administrators should block the domain signets.social and its associated IP 193.168.141.146 at the firewall or DNS level. End-users should be educated to recognize impersonation attempts, particularly those mimicking private messenger services with offers of enhanced privacy or exclusive features. Security teams should monitor for credential harvesting patterns, such as fake login pages or requests for sensitive information under the pretext of account verification. Regular audits of SSL certificates and domain registration details can help identify similar impersonation attempts early. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 7b43c08e5d1308b4502ba93abb07b661 TLS cert SHA-256: cb89cd47a469d0f185d0729903b1c6acdacbb7cd3630dde9b729b21d0cce8ecf ## 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/signets.social/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=signets.social 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.
