# PhishDestroy threat dossier — staging.mta-sts.patiobydesign.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-29 00:47:54 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/staging.mta-sts.patiobydesign.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 97/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 8/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, Fortinet, G-Data, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 185.149.120.183 (RU, Rostov-on-Don) ASN: AS57724 DDOS-GUARD LTD Hosting org: Ddos-guard LLC Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["ns1.dreamhost.com", "ns2.dreamhost.com", "ns3.dreamhost.com"] Page title: 404 Not Found HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR2 Expires: 2026-10-10 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 049aa442fffca767d22148a765afce9d260c44e8acd9ba7a710721b6f4f559fe Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - admin.access.patiobydesign.com - admin.lyuhhsecureaccess.patiobydesign.com - admin.rds1.patiobydesign.com - api.lmwe62tlcch5d2vb.patiobydesign.com - api.remoterd.patiobydesign.com - backend.mushroom.patiobydesign.com - demo.remoterd.patiobydesign.com - demo.wmpwedevarg.patiobydesign.com - dev.intelligence.patiobydesign.com - dev.lyuhhsecureaccess.patiobydesign.com - dev.nybmlqa-report.patiobydesign.com - en.patiobydesign.com - online.patiobydesign.com - sber.old2.patiobydesign.com - serversupport.patiobydesign.com ... +29 more ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-28 11:13:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-29 02:24:16 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-28 12:58:29 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-28 11:14:14 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] staging.mta-sts.patiobydesign.com Used in Phishing On July 28 2026 the domain staging.mta-sts.patiobydesign.com was observed as an active component of a high‑risk generic phishing campaign. The domain is registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC and is hosted on DreamHost infrastructure, as indicated by the authoritative name servers ns1.dreamhost.com, ns2.dreamhost.com and ns3.dreamhost.com. VirusTotal reports that 8 of 91 security‑vendor scanners flagged the domain, demonstrating a measurable detection rate across multiple engines. HTTP requests to the domain return a 301 redirect, a behavior often employed to forward victims to a malicious landing page or to obscure the final destination. The domain appears on a public security blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy service, confirming that at least one defensive platform has identified it as malicious. No additional public intelligence such as Safe Browsing alerts, OTX indicators, SSL certificate details, or page‑title information has been disclosed for this host. Consequently, the full scope of the phishing infrastructure – including the final payload URL, targeted brand, or credential‑harvesting mechanism – remains unknown. Defenders should block DNS resolution for the domain, add it to web‑proxy and firewall deny lists, and monitor for any outbound connections to the associated DreamHost name servers. Regular re‑query of VirusTotal and blocklist feeds is advised to capture any changes in detection status. Organizations that employ email filtering should treat any messages referencing the domain as malicious and quarantine them. Because the domain is still active, continued vigilance is required to mitigate potential credential‑stealing attempts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 049aa442fffca767d22148a765afce9d260c44e8acd9ba7a710721b6f4f559fe ## 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/staging.mta-sts.patiobydesign.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=staging.mta-sts.patiobydesign.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.
