Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain wa-whatapp.hl.cn was registered on July 02, 2026 through 北京新网数码信息技术有限公司. It is hosted behind Cloudflare, resolving to IP 104.21.76.181, which is associated with Cloudflare, Inc. in CA. The authoritative nameservers are jim.ns.cloudflare.com and lisa.ns.cloudflare.com, and the site presents a valid SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 profile. HTTP response code 200 and the page title “WhatsApp网页版 - 智能分配询盘的WhatsApp网页版” were observed. The domain is currently active and classified as a generic_phishing campaign with an impersonation scam type. Security telemetry shows the domain is blocked by PhishDestroy and appears on one external blocklist. VirusTotal analysis returned 15 positive detections out of 95 scanned security vendors, indicating a moderate level of consensus among scanners. Detected infrastructure technologies include HSTS, Cloudflare Browser Insights, Cloudflare, and HTTP/3, confirming the use of modern Cloudflare services. No additional intelligence such as payload samples or credential harvesting mechanisms has been publicly released, so the exact content of the hosted page beyond the title remains unverified. Defenders should immediately block resolution of wa-whatapp.hl.cn at DNS and network layers, and consider adding its IP address 104.21.76.181 to perimeter blocklists, recognizing that the address is shared among many Cloudflare customers. Email and web gateway filters ought to be updated to flag any communications referencing the “WhatsApp网页版” title or the domain itself. Continuous monitoring for newly registered domains using the same registrar or similar sub‑domain patterns (e.g., “wa-whatapp”) is recommended, as the rapid creation date suggests a short‑lived phishing infrastructure. Incident response teams should treat any credential submissions to this site as compromised and advise affected users to reset authentication details. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260712-05EE12 Favicon MD5: 8a7e51ecc755de991dae7d39b83b20f0 TLS cert SHA-256: e30eacf88f0d7690c2c3ff1d457df945a02bd00ba5b34c95b5edbf06985bd7ce ## 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/wa-whatapp.hl.cn/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=wa-whatapp.hl.cn 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.
