sun018.com Safety Check — Generic Phishing Detected

Analysis of sun018.com, observed on July 28, 2026, indicates that the domain is actively being used for a generic phishing campaign. The domain resolves to the authoritative name servers ns1.domainnamedns.com and ns2.domainnamedns.com, both of which are typical third‑party DNS providers and do not reveal a dedicated hosting infrastructure. VirusTotal reports that 17 of 91 security vendors have flagged the domain, confirming that a notable subset of detection engines consider the site malicious. The HTTP response returns a 200 status code, meaning the web server is reachable and serving content, which aligns with the active status in the intelligence feed.

The domain is listed on one external security blocklist and has been added to the PhishDestroy blocklist, demonstrating that at least one dedicated anti‑phishing service has taken mitigation action. Registration was performed through Realtime Register B.V., a registrar known for processing large volumes of registrations, but no further attribution can be derived from the registrar alone. Concrete evidence such as page title, SSL certificate details, or hosting IP information is not currently available, leaving those aspects of the infrastructure unverified.

Defenders should treat sun018.com as a high‑risk indicator and block network connections to the domain at perimeter firewalls and DNS filtering layers. Ongoing monitoring of threat‑intel feeds for additional indicators, such as payload hashes or observed phishing lures, is recommended. Incident response teams should also consider adding the domain to internal blocklists and reviewing any recent authentication attempts that may involve the domain to detect potential credential compromise.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       8f8443b45f6d99f4bc756e2f73662b41
TLS cert SHA-256:      02d0e6a9280b346b0293f82abfa965aa51a5a3d75b5d2ccf33ffd89525441871

## 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.
