Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies top-for-whatsapp.com.cn as a live WhatsApp credential phishing domain currently active in the wild. The domain is designed to mimic official WhatsApp services to deceive users into surrendering login credentials or personal information. top-for-whatsapp.com.cn was flagged by 18 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and is blocked by OpenPhish and PhishingArmy. The domain resolves to IP 43.226.17.69, which is associated with TrustAsia Technologies, Inc. SSL certificates. This domain appears on two security blocklists, indicating widespread recognition as a malicious host. The registration details, including registrar and creation date, are consistent with opportunistic malicious domain registrations aimed at exploiting brand trust. Given the elevated risk posed by this active phishing campaign, PhishDestroy recommends immediate domain blocking at network and DNS levels. Organizations should inspect proxy logs and DNS resolver logs for any recent resolutions to 43.226.17.69 or connections involving top-for-whatsapp.com.cn. Users should be reminded to verify URLs before entering credentials and to report suspicious login attempts. Continuous monitoring of this domain and its infrastructure is advised due to the ongoing threat of credential harvesting. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: c3f5095710d9598b9a96ddab91a0cd1a13220951b302a9fa5f19bc4cbb77b313 ## 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/top-for-whatsapp.com.cn/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=top-for-whatsapp.com.cn 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.
