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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-01-20 09:40:08 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-31 01:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-15 12:07:05 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019bdab2-c982-75ec-8b0f-acfb08a35e66/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/f106c135-359a-491f-8631-77e5e06c29d2 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/tapnetic.pro crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.tapnetic.pro Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=tapnetic.pro AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/tapnetic.pro URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/tapnetic.pro/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-18 23:57:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies tapnetic.pro as a high-risk phishing threat designed to deceive users through generic phishing tactics. The domain’s intent is to impersonate legitimate services and capture sensitive information, posing a significant security risk to unsuspecting visitors. Supporting evidence includes a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100 and detection by 20 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating broad recognition of malicious behavior. The domain was registered recently on February 21, 2026, through Porkbun LLC, and is associated with 50 AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses. It appears on four security blocklists and resolves to IP address 76.76.21.21, further confirming its suspicious infrastructure. Currently, tapnetic.pro has been taken offline, mitigating immediate risk. Users are advised to avoid this domain entirely and ensure their security solutions are updated to detect any residual phishing attempts. Continuous monitoring is recommended as similar domains may emerge using comparable tactics. PhishDestroy emphasizes caution and proactive defense to prevent credential theft and fraud linked to this phishing source. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 20/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260120-98BD6D Favicon SHA-256: 182a37ec501e4cefb05e6bd3f545c9acc428b99835b50686978616a6ee55e03e TLS cert SHA-256: 6bc051e595f575000921727559116ae1a7897a5af81d915519ec4c8c10142809 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/tapnetic.pro/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tapnetic.pro 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
