No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-28 13:43:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-28 18:31:15 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-28 13:44:46 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] support.azure Safety Check — Phishing Detected Analysis of the domain support.azure as of July 28 2026 shows that it is currently active and has been classified as a generic phishing site under investigation. The domain is registered through MarkMonitor Inc., a registrar commonly associated with legitimate corporate assets, which does not preclude abuse. DNS resolution returns four authoritative nameservers – ns1-05.azure-dns.com, ns2-05.azure-dns.net, ns3-05.azure-dns.org, and a fourth entry that is truncated in the source data – all belonging to the Azure DNS service, indicating that the infrastructure is hosted on Microsoft Azure. An HTTP request to the root URL receives a 301 permanent redirect response, a pattern often used by phishing operators to forward victims to a credential‑harvesting page while preserving the original host name. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy feed, confirming that at least one anti‑phishing community has observed malicious activity linked to it. VirusTotal reports that the domain was scanned by 91 security vendors; none of the scanners raised a detection, but the absence of alerts does not constitute evidence of safety, especially given the blocklist entry. Evidence gaps remain: no page title, SSL certificate details, hosting IP address, or malware kit identifiers have been disclosed, limiting the ability to attribute the payload or confirm the exact phishing vector. Defenders should therefore treat the domain as high‑risk until further forensic data is obtained. Recommended mitigations include adding support.azure to network‑level deny lists, updating URL filtering policies to block HTTP 301 redirects from this host, and monitoring for any new detections in threat‑intel feeds. Continuous re‑scanning on multi‑vendor platforms such as VirusTotal is advised to capture any future changes in the domain’s behavior. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 6518b5cda46d825d26a3d988aeaa6403b685f15cf1dfed771f0b523950770697 ## 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/support.azure/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=support.azure 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.
