# PhishDestroy threat dossier — sqs.non-steam.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-20 17:07:42 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/sqs.non-steam.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 66/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 19/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, MalwareURL, OpenPhish, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot URLQuery: 3 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 81.91.178.184 Registrar: Danesco Trading Ltd. Nameservers: ["ian.ns.cloudflare.com", "rita.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-08 Page title: Non-steam client panel ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-06-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: f7fbbf32c8926c270740ff0702d9ce21fcd1bbc44298a01dc020a779a548237b Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - notexistsvpn.non-steam.com - tqardshop.non-steam.com ## 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: 2026-06-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-09 05:31:05 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-06-08 13:33:07 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-06-20 16:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-17 00:47:00 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ea76a-cd75-72fa-8ecc-1ebac3c0325b/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/782997ef-e825-46ad-959d-ab20762cb189 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/sqs.non-steam.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.sqs.non-steam.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=sqs.non-steam.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/sqs.non-steam.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/sqs.non-steam.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-13 13:03:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain sqs.non-steam.com poses a high risk as a generic phishing threat. It is designed to deceive users into divulging sensitive information, such as login credentials or financial data, by impersonating a legitimate service. The threat is currently active and has been flagged by multiple security vendors. The domain's risk is substantiated by concrete data: VirusTotal reports 19 out of 95 security vendors flagging it as malicious. Additional technical indicators include its registration details, IP address, and creation date, though specific registrar and IP data are not provided in the intelligence. The domain is active on blocklists and has a low trust score, confirming its malicious intent. To mitigate this threat, users should never visit sqs.non-steam.com or click on any links associated with it. If encountered, the domain should be reported to security teams and blocked at the network level. For generic phishing, it is crucial to enable multi-factor authentication on accounts and educate users to recognize phishing attempts. PhishDestroy recommends immediate domain blacklisting and monitoring for related phishing campaigns.

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/sqs.non-steam.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=sqs.non-steam.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
