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: 2025-03-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-10-17 01:28:47 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-30 17:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-15 06:13:30 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/0199efc8-424d-74bf-a938-d0a9a0582017/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/waplsapp.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.waplsapp.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=waplsapp.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/waplsapp.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/waplsapp.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 02:35:56 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies waplsapp.com as an active phishing domain posing as a WhatsApp Plus APK download site. This fraudulent platform attempts to deceive users with fake login pages designed to harvest sensitive credentials and personal information under the guise of providing the latest app version. The domain waplsapp.com was registered recently via REGISTER S.P.A. and resolves to IP address 104.131.28.183. It appears on two major security blocklists, and 17 out of 95 security scanners on VirusTotal have flagged it as malicious. Additionally, it has been detected in 15 distinct threat pulses on AlienVault OTX, emphasizing ongoing malicious activity. Users are strongly advised to avoid visiting waplsapp.com or downloading any files from it. Instead, always obtain apps from authorized stores or official sources to mitigate the risk of credential theft and malware infection. Remain vigilant against phishing schemes and report suspicious domains to security platforms immediately. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: c21e5a2b32c47bc5f9d9efc97bc0e29fd081946d1d3ebffc5621cfafb1d3960e TLS cert SHA-256: 806f2e79fa54e967b25dbf0bd731d338a81b74c39b338a3fc2f1bc52fe80eb46 ## 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/waplsapp.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=waplsapp.com 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.
