Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] towmsq.xyz Safety Check — Phishing Detected The domain towmsq.xyz was registered on July 27 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and became active the following day. Infrastructure analysis shows the domain is served from the IP address 188.114.96.3 and is delegated to the Cloudflare authoritative nameservers kaiser.ns.cloudflare.com and karsyn.ns.cloudflare.com. VirusTotal reports that five of ninety‑one scanning engines have flagged the domain as malicious, which aligns with its inclusion on a known phishing blocklist and its explicit block by the PhishDestroy service. The domain currently remains reachable and is listed as active in threat intel feeds. No public SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, page titles, or content snapshots are available in the supplied intelligence, so the exact phishing lures or credential‑harvesting mechanisms cannot be confirmed at this time. Likewise, the absence of additional blocklist citations or threat‑intel references limits the view of broader distribution. Nonetheless, the combination of recent registration, Cloudflare DNS configuration, a low‑confidence IP reputation, and multiple vendor detections satisfies a high‑risk assessment for generic phishing. Defenders should immediately add towmsq.xyz to outbound and inbound web‑filter policies, enforce DNS‑level blocking, and consider sink‑holing the resolved IP address 188.114.96.3. Ongoing monitoring of DNS queries and any future VirusTotal or sandbox submissions is advised to detect potential payload evolution. Correlation with user‑reported phishing attempts that reference the domain will help confirm the operational impact and refine response actions. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260728-600CD2 TLS cert SHA-256: e6bd068b3044445fae376a66d38dd771da1f907859756551e47b5403ba93bc80 ## 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 (operator 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/towmsq.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=towmsq.xyz 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
