Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] whatsapp-chat.web-whatsapps.hi.cn: Confirmed Phishing Site Analysis as of July 22, 2026 indicates that the domain whatsapp-chat.web-whatsapps.hi.cn is actively used for a generic phishing campaign. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 156.239.9.106 and was registered on July 01, 2026 through the registrar 北京新网数码信息技术有限公司. The authoritative name servers dm1.longmingdns.com and dm2.longmingdns.com are listed in the WHOIS record, confirming the current DNS configuration. VirusTotal has recorded 18 positive detections out of 95 scanned security vendors, demonstrating that a significant portion of the scanning ecosystem classifies the domain as malicious. Independent phishing intelligence feeds have also flagged the site; PhishDestroy and OpenPhish both list the domain as blocked, and it appears on two additional security blocklists. These overlapping signals reinforce the confidence that the domain is being leveraged to harvest credentials or otherwise deceive users. The infrastructure evidence, including the recent registration date and the single hosting IP, suggests a short‑lived deployment typical of opportunistic phishing operators. Defenders should add the domain to network‑level deny lists, configure DNS filtering to return NXDOMAIN or sinkhole responses, and ensure that endpoint protection solutions are updated to include the 18 VirusTotal detections. Continuous monitoring of the associated IP address and name servers is advised, as adversaries may reuse the same hosting resources for subsequent campaigns. Because the domain remains active, proactive blocking is recommended to mitigate exposure to end users. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260722-D68CBC Favicon MD5: 8a7e51ecc755de991dae7d39b83b20f0 TLS cert SHA-256: 74bac52ec9acb848c634ee9aed84b427b3efb4d9052eb47ce9408827f755a58c ## 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/whatsapp-chat.web-whatsapps.hi.cn/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=whatsapp-chat.web-whatsapps.hi.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.
