# PhishDestroy threat dossier — tws-checkout.org ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-30 11:36:27 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/tws-checkout.org/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 82/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: Global Domain Group LLC Nameservers: edward.ns.cloudflare.com, pearl.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-21 Expires: 2027-06-21 Page title: Loading… ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-20 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 7d883c6c7ed4a64c096fb3841e130483056ad57857a2293c5fc43fef6b9cba96 ## 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: 2026-06-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-26 10:12:28 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-26 08:15:00 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 12:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-26 12:01:23 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f02fb-8821-73ce-af89-7be1a7dc5fc7/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/tws-checkout.org crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.tws-checkout.org Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=tws-checkout.org AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/tws-checkout.org URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/tws-checkout.org/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 10:19:40 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, tws-checkout.org, is actively engaged in credential harvesting phishing operations targeting users through fraudulent checkout or authentication pages. Analysis indicates the site is designed to mimic legitimate transaction portals, tricking victims into entering sensitive login credentials, payment details, or personal information. The infrastructure is optimized for high-volume phishing campaigns, with a focus on financial or e-commerce impersonation. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 21, 2026, through Global Domain Group LLC, a registrar frequently associated with phishing and abuse. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3 and uses an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services, which may lend a false sense of legitimacy to unsuspecting users. As of the latest assessment, only 2 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal have flagged this domain, suggesting it remains under-detected and actively evades common blocklists. No additional blocklist entries have been confirmed, further indicating its operational status. Users who have visited tws-checkout.org or entered credentials on the site should immediately revoke any submitted information, particularly passwords, credit card numbers, or other sensitive data. It is recommended to reset credentials for any accounts accessed after visiting the domain, enable multi-factor authentication where possible, and monitor financial statements for unauthorized transactions. Network administrators should block the domain and its resolving IP address (188.114.96.3) at the perimeter to prevent further exposure. If the site was accessed via a corporate or institutional network, incident response protocols should be initiated to assess potential data compromise. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260626-5231AC Favicon MD5: fb07d526298f561d5025d544e6059f10 TLS cert SHA-256: 7d883c6c7ed4a64c096fb3841e130483056ad57857a2293c5fc43fef6b9cba96 ## 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/tws-checkout.org/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tws-checkout.org 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.
