# PhishDestroy threat dossier — varimo.info ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-05 03:30:18 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/varimo.info/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 13/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, ESET, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, SOCRadar URLQuery: 3 detections AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 213.136.93.173 (FR, Lauterbourg) ASN: AS51167 Contabo GmbH Hosting org: Contabo GmbH Registrar: Vautron Rechenzentrum AG Nameservers: ns1.contabo.net, ns2.contabo.net, ns3.contabo.net Registered: 2018-02-02 Expires: 2027-02-02 Page title: VARIMO - metal shelving racks ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR1 Expires: 2026-09-30 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4466e2bd7bb4d4112707c4a894c005298fa1e726b983c045fe34fa8b29d1c69c Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - autoconfig.varimo.info - autodiscover.varimo.info - cpanel.varimo.info - cpcalendars.varimo.info - cpcontacts.varimo.info - mail.varimo.info - webdisk.varimo.info - webmail.varimo.info - www.varimo.info ## 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: 2018-02-02 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-03 14:18:36 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-03 12:24:55 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-05 04:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-04 00:02:01 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f27e9-9202-77f8-9eed-b444e9c6fe1d/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/8f13218c-ab1d-4b90-9af8-9b5bf9695e07 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/varimo.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.varimo.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=varimo.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/varimo.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/varimo.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-03 15:00:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, varimo.info, is flagged as a generic phishing site impersonating a retail brand specializing in metal shelving racks. Analysis indicates the site mimics legitimate e-commerce platforms to harvest user credentials or payment details, though no specific drainer kit or cryptocurrency theft mechanism has been identified in this instance. The page title, 'VARIMO - metal shelving racks,' suggests an attempt to deceive users searching for industrial storage solutions, a common tactic in brand impersonation schemes. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on February 02, 2018, through Vautron Rechenzentrum AG and currently resolves to the IP address 213.136.93.173. VirusTotal reports 9 out of 95 security vendors marking this domain as malicious, indicating moderate to high confidence in its phishing classification. AlienVault OTX lists the domain in one threat intelligence pulse, while no entries were found in Google Safe Browsing at the time of this report. The domain remains active and unblocked by most major blocklists, though its prolonged existence increases the likelihood of successful credential harvesting. Current status confirms varimo.info is still operational, posing an ongoing risk to users. Response actions should include immediate blacklisting in enterprise security gateways, DNS filtering, and endpoint protection rules. Network defenders are advised to monitor for connections to 213.136.93.173 and inspect logs for any prior interactions with this domain. Despite its age, the domain's continued activity and low blocklist coverage necessitate heightened vigilance, particularly in sectors where industrial supply procurement is common. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260703-8C8FDA Favicon MD5: c605d35f894f22265c4c075d39653ac9 TLS cert SHA-256: 4466e2bd7bb4d4112707c4a894c005298fa1e726b983c045fe34fa8b29d1c69c ## 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/varimo.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=varimo.info 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.
