Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Analysis of the domain valorant.forum indicates it is an active phishing infrastructure targeting users of a popular online game. Registered on April 9, 2026, through Global Domain Group LLC, the domain currently resolves to the IP address 91.92.243.12. Infrastructure review shows Cloudflare nameservers (hassan.ns.cloudflare.com and tess.ns.cloudflare.com), a common tactic to obscure hosting origins and evade takedowns. As of July 15, 2026, the domain remains operational and is flagged by 14 of 91 security vendors in VirusTotal scans, suggesting malicious intent. The exact content or phishing kit in use has not been confirmed, but the domain name aligns with known impersonation patterns of gaming-related forums to harvest credentials or distribute malware. Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk and consider blocking resolution at the DNS level or monitoring for connections from internal networks. No evidence currently links this domain to a specific campaign or threat actor, and further investigation is required to determine the full scope of its use. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260715-118177 Favicon MD5: 3d58264e0a67120477f81eb1578410ca TLS cert SHA-256: b9a7cb534efbb2ca4363191703b5279d179c1bda9f0e682196f08999d90c7ca1 ## 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/valorant.forum/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=valorant.forum 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.
