Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      38.181.44.90 (US, Los Angeles)
Hosting org:     AS140227 Hong Kong Communications International Co., Limited

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     none
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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: 2026-06-18 16:36:57 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies tmcg-j.com as a domain that poses a threat to users, as it has been flagged for generic phishing, which can lead to sensitive information being stolen. This domain was flagged by 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, and was created on January 07, 2026, through the registrar West263 International Limited, which raises concerns about its legitimacy. The domain resolves to IP 38.181.44.90 and appears on 3 security blocklists, further indicating its potential for harm.

 
The domain's lack of an SSL certificate and its presence in 1 threat intelligence pulse on AlienVault OTX are also red flags, suggesting that it may be used for malicious activities. With this information, it is clear that tmcg-j.com is a domain that users should exercise caution with. The fact that it has been taken offline is a positive step, but it is still important for users to be aware of the potential risks associated with this domain.

 
If a user has visited tmcg-j.com, they should take immediate action to protect themselves, such as changing their passwords and monitoring their accounts for any suspicious activity. PhishDestroy recommends that users prioritize their online safety and security by being cautious when interacting with unfamiliar websites and domains, especially those that have been flagged for generic phishing, like tmcg-j.com, and to always check the full report for more information.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260617-DC12BE

## 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.
