# PhishDestroy threat dossier — uspin.us ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-14 16:55:24 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/uspin.us/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 49/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 94.23.162.163 (DE, Saarbrücken) ASN: AS16276 OVH SAS Hosting org: OVH GmbH Registrar: Key-Systems GmbH Nameservers: ns1.emailverification.info, ns2.emailverification.info Registered: 2026-01-15 Page title: Contact Verification Suspension Page ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2026-01-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-05 12:46:58 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-05 09:47:11 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-14 19:40:08 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-09 01:13:48 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019df787-2d0b-74cb-8f06-960089805a31/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/aead835f-2641-40c6-beca-4b8e1b6a1779 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/uspin.us crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.uspin.us Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=uspin.us AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/uspin.us URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/uspin.us/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-05 12:47:32 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies uspin.us as a generic phishing domain currently propagating under-investigation as an active campaign. This domain is not affiliated with any legitimate brand and exhibits characteristics consistent with credential harvesting operations. Technical artifacts suggest the infrastructure may be leveraging a drainer kit to siphon user credentials under the guise of a login portal or service authentication page. The domain was registered on January 15, 2026, through Key-Systems GmbH, a registrar known for both legitimate and abusive registrations. The absence of detections on VirusTotal (0/95) does not guarantee safety, as many phishing kits evade initial detection through obfuscation and short-lived infrastructure. This domain resolves to the IP address 94.23.162.163, which has no documented history in Google Safe Browsing (GSB) as of the latest query. The domain remains unlisted on all major threat intelligence blocklists, including but not limited to PhishTank, OpenPhish, and URLVoid. Its recent creation date (January 15, 2026) indicates a likely opportunistic registration targeting current events, seasonal promotions, or trending services. The registrar, Key-Systems GmbH, is implicated in numerous past phishing campaigns due to lax enforcement of domain registration policies, though this does not inherently implicate the registrar in malicious intent for this specific domain. As of the latest assessment, the domain is categorized as active with a risk level classified as under investigation. Immediate defensive actions include flagging the domain at the network perimeter via DNS sinkholing or blacklisting, and user-facing warnings via browser-based intervention mechanisms. While the current threat level is under review, the lack of detections and absence from blocklists suggest this campaign may be in its early propagation phase. Users are advised to avoid interacting with uspin.us or any associated links. Organizations should monitor for inbound traffic to 94.23.162.163 and update threat intelligence feeds accordingly. Remaining risk is considered moderate due to the potential for rapid escalation if the campaign gains traction. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260505-1D2708 Favicon MD5: 4bf69dd26991ac00632a89f78772c2e3 ## 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/uspin.us/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=uspin.us 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.
