TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Impersonation
Targeted brand: Steam

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      18/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Certego, Chong Lua Dao, CyRadar, ESET, ESTsecurity, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos, Viettel Threat Intelligence, VIPRE

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      104.21.18.202 (US, San Francisco)
Hosting org:     AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-02 15:00:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain steamtools.cc poses a generic phishing threat, aimed at users seeking tools related to Steam library management. The page claims to offer features for adding games to Steam, which may lure users into providing sensitive information or credentials under false pretenses.

Evidence from the analysis indicates that steamtools.cc resolves to the IP address 104.21.18.202. The domain was created on December 22, 2025, and is registered through NameSilo, LLC. Current intelligence from VirusTotal shows 0 detections out of 95, indicating that it has not yet been flagged by most security systems. As of now, the domain remains active without any listings on major blocklists, which may contribute to its ongoing risk.

Users who have visited steamtools.cc should exercise caution. It is recommended to change any passwords that may have been entered on this domain and to enable two-factor authentication on any related accounts. Additionally, users should monitor their accounts for any unusual activity and consider running a malware scan on their devices to ensure no malicious software has been installed as a result of interaction with this site.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      6e894fbc5a6408ff2ea786497fa0a18608085cecf9ef78a49da2253955b0b963

## 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.
