# PhishDestroy threat dossier — slon7.webshopbot.cc ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-29 18:33:22 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/slon7.webshopbot.cc/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 60/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: Telegram ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 149.154.167.99 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS62041 Telegram Telegram Messenger Inc, VG Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. 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: lina.ns.cloudflare.com, mitch.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-07 Expires: 2027-05-07 Page title: Telegram: Launch @sd9mxplrta_bot ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-05 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d5a428702783ba833655cd40d445b8d9d9e7896178182b37a4c2e5512db97be9 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - webshopbot.cc ## 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: 2026-05-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-26 21:59:49 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-06-29 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-27 00:01:07 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0583-adce-759a-9e08-c3aa918f5eaf/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/slon7.webshopbot.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.slon7.webshopbot.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=slon7.webshopbot.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/slon7.webshopbot.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/slon7.webshopbot.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-27 00:02:57 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, slon7.webshopbot.cc, is identified as a brand impersonation phishing resource targeting Telegram, a widely used messaging platform. The site presents itself as an official Telegram launch page for the bot handle @sd9mxplrta_bot, a tactic commonly employed to deceive users into interacting with malicious or fraudulent services. No explicit crypto drainer functionality was observed in the available metadata, though the impersonation framework suggests potential credential harvesting or social engineering objectives. The page title, 'Telegram: Launch @sd9mxplrta_bot,' reinforces the false legitimacy of the operation, aiming to exploit user trust in the Telegram brand. Infrastructure analysis reveals several technical indicators associated with this domain. It resolves to the IP address 172.67.205.21, a Cloudflare-associated endpoint, which may obscure the true origin of the malicious activity. The domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on May 07, 2026, an unusually future-dated creation that may indicate either a clerical error or an attempt to evade temporal detection heuristics. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common choice for both legitimate and malicious sites due to its accessibility. VirusTotal detection metrics report 3 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, a relatively low but non-negligible ratio that suggests emerging or evasive threat characteristics. No Google Safe Browsing (GSB) blocklist entries were identified at the time of analysis, though the domain has since been taken offline. The current status of slon7.webshopbot.cc is offline, indicating a possible takedown or voluntary cessation of operations by the threat actor. Despite this, the residual risk remains elevated due to the domain's prior association with brand impersonation and the potential for re-activation under similar infrastructure. Users who interacted with the site are advised to revoke any granted permissions, reset credentials, and monitor associated accounts for unauthorized activity. Organizations should update detection rules to include the observed indicators, particularly the IP address 172.67.205.21 and the NICENIC registrar affiliation, to preemptively block related threats. Continued vigilance is recommended, as the threat actor may deploy comparable domains using identical or modified infrastructure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 16a75c7824b5223b8e22864354e9e33f TLS cert SHA-256: d5a428702783ba833655cd40d445b8d9d9e7896178182b37a4c2e5512db97be9 ## 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/slon7.webshopbot.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=slon7.webshopbot.cc 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.
