No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-06-23 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 14:23:43 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-06-30 16:20:34 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0e2e-93fc-74b6-9b46-35dd3b4f1ca9/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/vitalenergyinc.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.vitalenergyinc.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=vitalenergyinc.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/vitalenergyinc.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/vitalenergyinc.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 14:24:34 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, vitalenergyinc.net, is currently under investigation for credential harvesting phishing activity. Analysis indicates no direct association with known legitimate brands or drainer kits at this stage, though the domain name suggests potential impersonation of energy sector entities. The infrastructure appears designed to evade initial detection, with no immediate indicators of widespread compromise or abuse reporting. Technical indicators reveal the domain was registered on June 23, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently observed in phishing campaigns. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3, which has not yet been flagged in blocklists or Google Safe Browsing (GSB). VirusTotal reports 0 detections out of 95 engines, suggesting the domain is either newly deployed or employing evasion techniques to avoid signature-based detection. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, providing a superficial layer of legitimacy to unsuspecting users. Current status remains active, with no confirmed takedown or sinkholing actions. Response actions include continuous monitoring for detection updates, particularly in URL scanning engines and threat intelligence feeds. The remaining risk is elevated due to the domain's pristine detection profile and the potential for targeted credential theft. Organizations are advised to preemptively block the domain and IP at the perimeter, while end-users should be cautioned against entering credentials on any site hosted under vitalenergyinc.net. Further analysis of associated infrastructure and historical DNS records is recommended to identify linked campaigns. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 754e55e20d63a7de6e2e06db29608cdc ## 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/vitalenergyinc.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=vitalenergyinc.net 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.
