# PhishDestroy threat dossier — vip-collab.land ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-29 04:21:56 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/vip-collab.land/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 81/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Google ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 8/92 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Sophos AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.161.208 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: ["macy.ns.cloudflare.com", "cosmin.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-05-15 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-10 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: cfeeb650c081efe0463654704c6576319f4cdb84c2bee091caa0ed78ca0eaa65 ## 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: 2026-05-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-15 05:30:07 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 04:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-22 03:02:19 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 15:19:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, vip-collab.land, is identified as a phishing infrastructure specifically designed to impersonate Google services. Analysis indicates the site employs brand impersonation tactics to deceive users into divulging credentials, personal data, or installing malicious payloads under the guise of legitimate Google collaboration or productivity tools. The domain mimics Google’s visual and functional elements, increasing the likelihood of successful social engineering attacks against unsuspecting users. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators of malicious intent. The domain was registered on May 15, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. It resolves to the IP address 172.67.161.208, hosted on Cloudflare’s network in Canada, a common obfuscation tactic to evade detection. VirusTotal reports that 8 out of 95 security vendors flag vip-collab.land as malicious, while it appears on at least one security blocklist. The domain’s SSL certificate, issued by Let’s Encrypt (serial number E7), further suggests an attempt to appear legitimate, though such certificates are routinely exploited in phishing campaigns. Users who visited vip-collab.land should take immediate remedial action. If credentials were entered, they must be changed across all platforms where reused, particularly Google accounts. System scans using updated security tools are recommended to detect potential malware infections. Browser data, including cookies and cached files, should be cleared to remove any residual artifacts. Organizations should block the domain and its associated IP (172.67.161.208) at the network level to prevent further exposure. Monitoring for unusual account activity or unauthorized access attempts is critical in the following days. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: f3418a443e7d841097c714d69ec4bcb8 TLS cert SHA-256: cfeeb650c081efe0463654704c6576319f4cdb84c2bee091caa0ed78ca0eaa65 ## 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/vip-collab.land/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=vip-collab.land 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.
