Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] whatapp.hk.cn: Confirmed Phishing Site Analysis of the domain whatapp.hk.cn shows a newly created Internet resource that is actively serving malicious content. The domain was registered on July 15 2026 through 万商云集（成都）科技股份有限公司 and is currently delegated to Cloudflare name servers clint.ns.cloudflare.com and leah.ns.cloudflare.com. DNS resolution points to the IP address 188.114.97.3, a Cloudflare edge node commonly used for content delivery and abuse hosting. VirusTotal scans have returned 14 positive detections out of 91 security vendors, indicating that multiple scanners have identified the domain as malicious. The limited age of the domain, combined with the use of a generic Cloudflare front‑end, suggests an intent to hide the true hosting location and to benefit from Cloudflare’s built‑in mitigation services. No additional infrastructure such as secondary A records, MX records, or CNAME chains has been observed, and the site’s page content has not been publicly disclosed, leaving the exact phishing lure unknown. Because the domain is classified as a generic phishing site, defenders should treat any traffic to whatapp.hk.cn as hostile. Recommended mitigations include adding the domain to network and email blocklists, monitoring DNS queries for the associated IP, and employing URL filtering solutions to prevent user access. Continuous re‑scanning of the domain is advised, as threat actors may modify the payload or host new phishing pages after the initial detection. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260718-7EAAA2 Favicon MD5: 0d5b38c21ddc5bca9707b092e06183cf TLS cert SHA-256: 8792f0ab69b486a4f38800d6d35db8914fc94f64b37ff460813b0cc783006449 ## 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/whatapp.hk.cn/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=whatapp.hk.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.
