PhishDestroy threat report

Overview

PhishDestroy added usatimes.news to its internal blocklist on 2026-10-27 because VirusTotal returned two malicious detections. The prior AI intake assessment, observed on the same day, found the site presenting a news‑site title “USA Times News - National and International News” and reported no malicious content. An HTTP 200 response was recorded on 2026-10-27.

How the scam works

The listing relies on vendor detections that mark the domain as potentially malicious; such flags can indicate phishing, malware distribution, or other fraudulent activity, but no specific malicious behavior was observed on the captured page.

Evidence

VirusTotal recorded two malicious detections from alphaMountain.ai and Bkav on 2026-10-25 (retrieved 2026-10-27). Google Safe Browsing showed no flag on 2026-10-27. urlscan captured the site on 2026-09-13 with a clean verdict and again on 2026-10-27 with a high engine score (93) but an overall non‑malicious verdict. OTX listed seven pulses referencing the domain as of 2026-10-27. PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist marks the domain as malicious, while external blocklists reported zero listings except a single Cloudflare Family block on one resolver.

Infrastructure

The domain was created on 2025-01-29 through NameCheap, Inc. DNS resolved to 188.114.96.3 (and related Cloudflare addresses) and was served via Cloudflare’s CDN (ASN 13335). TLS 1.3 was observed with a certificate issued by Google Trust Services, valid from 2026-09-12 to 2026-12-11. Cloudflare Radar recorded the server location in London, GB and flagged the domain for scam‑related risks.

What to do

Visitors should avoid entering credentials or downloading files from the site and change any passwords if they were entered. Security teams can block the exact domain name in web filters, monitor DNS queries for the recorded IP, and review access logs for connections to that address. No broader network blocks are required without further evidence of compromise.

Questions about usatimes.news

Is usatimes.news legit?

No. PhishDestroy classifies usatimes.news as a blocklisted domain (risk: critical, 81/100); it was first detected on 2026-10-27. VirusTotal: 2/92 engines flag it. Treat the site as unsafe.

Is usatimes.news safe to connect a wallet?

No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on usatimes.news. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.

What should I do if I used usatimes.news?

Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.

Accreditation and RAA context

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations

For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.

RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety seal. Verify ICANN fees Read RAA §3.18 PHISHDESTROY INVESTIGATIONICANN funding, contracts, and DNS abuse oversight

Registration & observation details1

Availability observations

Last reachable observation

An estimated time describes an observation window. It does not prove a registrar action or the exact moment a site became unavailable.

Stored observation history1

Dated changes retained by the monitor and source collectors. Newest observations appear first; source states are not proof of a takedown.

  1. Domain monitor · First collection record

    Reachable

All retained availability observations2

Source: availability monitor. Every retained observation remains separate, including records with the same date or evidence hash but different sources or DNS states. An unknown state is not proof that the site is offline.

You are not alone and there is nothing to be ashamed of. Scammers are sophisticated criminals who exploit trust. Reporting your experience is the most powerful weapon against fraud — your report can prevent others from becoming victims and help law enforcement take action. Silence is the scammer’s greatest advantage. Break it.
If credentials were compromised, report immediately. Do not engage with recovery scammers.

If credentials, payment data, or files were exposed, report the incident immediately. Change affected passwords, revoke active sessions, and scan the device.

Recommendations & Advice for Victims

Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.

What should I do immediately?

Urgent

Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.

  • Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
  • Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
  • Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site

What information should I collect for my report?

FBI guidelines

Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗

  • Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
  • Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
  • Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
  • All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including usatimes.news)
  • Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used

Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.

Where should I report the scam?
  • FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
  • Europol — European cybercrime reporting (EU)
  • Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
  • Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately

A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.

How do phishing scams typically work?
  • Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
  • Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
  • Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
  • AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect

How can I protect myself in the future?
  • Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
  • Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
  • "Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines

About this reportSources, observation dates and corrections

This report combines saved page captures, registration and network records, scanner results and PhishDestroy reporting history. Each source keeps its own observation date. Open a source report to inspect the original result.
