Domain was flagged dead on 2026-05-27 00:07:49 UTC but a fresh report was filed on 2026-06-02 21:37:30 UTC — it is back or never truly suspended. Reports filed: 1 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-06-02 21:37:30 UTC Days since first notice: 4 — no registrar action, domain remains online ICANN Compliance CC'd on at least one escalation — non-response is on record. Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies.

Technical Details - Registrar: Tucows Domains Inc. - Hosting IP: 104.21.76.215 - VirusTotal: 5 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged this domain as malicious (domain scan, not IP) - Domain Created: 2026-05-22 Recommendations - Block and report this domain immediately via your threat-intel platform - Implement web filtering to prevent access to this malicious domain - Warn users about generic phishing and scam attempts ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1780425432-torhub.io Favicon MD5: 92b7844e0ad25db02c21bb50753c37c6 TLS cert SHA-256: 8b71ea6743ebd1da8859cab803db1f4f9b1e07a26b0841f356564a7ae76bec80 ## 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/torhub.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=torhub.io 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.
