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: 2023-01-01 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-01 06:28:04 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-01 04:59:39 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-04 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-02 06:18:40 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1bed-d169-73cb-9c4e-309f28d155d0/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/ecf7b314-4ff2-4a1f-98a5-e82489583f93 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/smmseoservice.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.smmseoservice.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=smmseoservice.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/smmseoservice.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/smmseoservice.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-01 06:36:01 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, smmseoservice.com, is actively engaged in credential harvesting operations targeting users of social media and search engine optimization services. Analysis indicates the site impersonates legitimate SEO service providers to deceive victims into submitting login credentials, payment details, or other sensitive information under false pretenses. The infrastructure is designed to mimic authentic platforms, leveraging persuasive phishing pages that exploit trust in digital marketing tools and services. Infrastructure analysis reveals concrete evidence of malicious intent. The domain was registered on January 01, 2023, through Web Commerce Communications Limited dba WebNic.cc, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. It currently resolves to the IP address 162.244.94.11, which has been linked to other fraudulent activities in recent threat intelligence reports. Despite its recent creation, only 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal has flagged the domain, suggesting either evasion techniques or limited detection coverage. The SSL certificate, issued by Let's Encrypt, provides a veneer of legitimacy but does not mitigate the underlying threat posed by the site. Users who have visited smmseoservice.com or interacted with its content should take immediate action to mitigate potential compromise. First, reset any credentials entered on the site, particularly those associated with email, financial, or social media accounts. Monitor linked accounts for unauthorized activity, such as logins from unfamiliar locations or devices. If payment details were submitted, contact financial institutions to flag potential fraudulent transactions. Additionally, consider scanning local devices for malware, as phishing sites may deploy malicious scripts or redirect to exploit kits. Organizations should block the domain and its resolving IP at the network perimeter to prevent further exposure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260701-E4377E Favicon MD5: acdaeb03bf20facaa4084d8b33989886 TLS cert SHA-256: 22160c06a4ccc66698a28fac43216a3805c2f3e984d0d33ed95910a03db6e4de ## 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/smmseoservice.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=smmseoservice.com 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.
