Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is skye-bit.net a phishing site? Analysis of skye-bit.net, first observed with a creation date of 13 April 2025, shows that the domain remains active as of the report date 27 July 2026. The domain is registered through Namecheap Inc and utilizes the namecheaphosting.com name servers (dns1.namecheaphosting.com, dns2.namecheaphosting.com). DNS resolution points to the IPv4 address 198.54.126.17. The infrastructure has been flagged by the PhishDestroy blocklist and appears on one additional security blocklist, indicating that at least one threat‑intelligence feed treats the domain as malicious. VirusTotal reporting shows that 1 of 91 security vendors flagged the domain, providing additional corroboration of suspicious activity. No public SSL/TLS certificate information, HTTP status codes, or page‑title data are currently available, so the exact nature of the hosted content cannot be confirmed. The limited detection footprint—only a single vendor flag—means that automated scanners may miss the domain, yet the presence on multiple blocklists suggests a deliberate phishing operation. Defenders should treat skye-bit.net as high‑risk: add the domain and its resolving IP (198.54.126.17) to network deny lists, monitor DNS queries for recurring lookups, and consider sinkholing the IP if feasible. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as additional indicators such as malicious payloads or credential‑harvesting pages may emerge in future analyses. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260727-18EC46 Favicon MD5: ef9e2db726c48966b9f6818cdfb6e557 TLS cert SHA-256: eb663d352da2cb363cdb721a3ad6018d6e167ea116b283cb65a31b9e6095d6da ## 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/skye-bit.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=skye-bit.net 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.
