Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies verizon.efdss.icu as a high-risk phishing domain impersonating Verizon to deceive users into revealing sensitive information. The site features a fraudulent page titled "Verizon Deals: Save on Phones, Internet, Accessories | Verizon" designed to lure victims with attractive offers. This generic phishing tactic aims at credential theft and potential financial fraud. The domain verizon.efdss.icu was registered recently on February 21, 2026, and resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3. VirusTotal flags this domain with alerts from 10 out of 95 security vendors, and it is listed on one security blocklist. Despite these warnings, the domain remains active and accessible, posing an immediate risk to users. The use of a .icu TLD and a subdomain structure mimicking a legitimate Verizon site further complicates detection for casual users. Currently, the domain is active and continues to operate without interruption. PhishDestroy strongly recommends users avoid visiting verizon.efdss.icu and not to provide any personal or financial information if encountered. Organizations and individuals should block access to this domain through network filters and report any phishing attempts related to it. Continuous monitoring and user education are essential to mitigate the threat posed by this fraudulent site. ## 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/verizon.efdss.icu/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=verizon.efdss.icu 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.
