# PhishDestroy threat dossier — teleqotm.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-01 00:21:00 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/teleqotm.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: BitDefender, CyRadar, ESET, G-Data, LevelBlue, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 216.150.1.1 (US, Walnut) ASN: ASAS16509 AMAZON-02 - Amazon.com, Inc., US Hosting org: AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: ns3.my-ndns.com, ns4.my-ndns.com Registered: 2026-06-13 Expires: 2027-06-13 Page title: Loading... ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR2 Expires: 2026-09-11 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 76dc5a12471827932d6c83d2bc60da7afcc47817b76c2630e68d88e9c01e5156 ## 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. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-17 18:55:16 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-17 19:48:12 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-01 00:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-19 00:18:00 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ed681-1d55-7769-a247-8ffa2886fe27/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/298e679b-5246-41b5-b71b-2ee0730a5990 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/teleqotm.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.teleqotm.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=teleqotm.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/teleqotm.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/teleqotm.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 20:03:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, teleqotm.com, is identified as a phishing site specifically designed to impersonate the Telegram brand. Analysis indicates the site was actively used for brand impersonation phishing, targeting users with fraudulent login portals or credential harvesting schemes. The domain is currently offline, though prior activity suggests it was operational for malicious purposes. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple high-risk indicators. The domain was flagged by 6 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, a notable detection rate for phishing infrastructure. It was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with suspicious domains. The domain resolves to the IP address 216.150.1.1, which has been linked to other malicious activity in recent threat intelligence reports. The creation date of June 13, 2026, is anomalous, as it predates the current date, suggesting potential domain spoofing or incorrect registration data. The domain appears on one security blocklist, and its Gridinsoft trust score is 0 out of 100, reinforcing its classification as high-risk. The SSL certificate is issued under the name Telegram, further confirming the intent to deceive users by mimicking the legitimate brand. Current status indicates the domain has been taken offline, likely due to enforcement actions or hosting provider intervention. However, the infrastructure remains a potential threat if reactivated. Organizations and individuals are advised to block the domain and its associated IP address (216.150.1.1) at the network level to prevent accidental exposure. Users who may have interacted with the domain should immediately reset credentials for any accounts accessed during the suspected exposure period. Security teams are encouraged to monitor for related domains registered through the same registrar or resolving to the same IP, as these may represent follow-on threats. Proactive monitoring of SSL certificate transparency logs for additional Telegram-branded certificates issued to suspicious domains is also recommended. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260617-94FA9D Favicon MD5: 1635ed0e8715c40d4bed875b7494a93a TLS cert SHA-256: 76dc5a12471827932d6c83d2bc60da7afcc47817b76c2630e68d88e9c01e5156 ## 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/teleqotm.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=teleqotm.com 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.
