Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator):
  - pay-service.digital

## 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: 2026-03-19 00:04:30 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has identified swisspost.pay-service.digital as a high-risk phishing domain that aimed to deceive users by mimicking legitimate postal services. This domain was used in generic phishing campaigns designed to steal sensitive information such as login credentials and financial data. The nature of the threat posed significant risk to unsuspecting users, warranting immediate attention and caution.

From a technical perspective, swisspost.pay-service.digital resolved to the IP address 104.21.68.173 and was registered through Cloudflare, Inc., a common choice for threat actors leveraging content delivery networks for obfuscation. VirusTotal flagged this domain with 18 detections out of 95 security vendors, confirming its malicious intent. Additionally, it appeared on one security blocklist, reinforcing its classification as a phishing threat.

Currently, the domain swisspost.pay-service.digital has been taken offline, effectively neutralizing its immediate threat. Despite this, PhishDestroy advises users and organizations to remain vigilant by verifying URLs carefully before interaction and using updated security solutions that include real-time domain reputation checks. Reporting suspicious domains promptly can help prevent further phishing attempts and protect sensitive information.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       0019dfc4b32d63c1392aa264aed2253c1e0c2fb09216f8e2cc269bbfb8bb49b5
TLS cert SHA-256:      84854d5ee0058510251410b57f4304994c8fbe9c7105739e1c751fc3df0fde29

## 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 (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.
