Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] whatsapp-vip.chat-whatsapps.hi.cn Generic Phishing Alert Analysis as of July 21, 2026 indicates that the domain whatsapp-vip.chat-whatsapps.hi.cn is actively being used for a generic phishing campaign. The domain was registered on July 01, 2026 through Beijing Xinwang Digital Information Technology Co., Ltd. and is served by the authoritative name servers dm1.longmingdns.com and dm2.longmingdns.com. DNS resolution points to the IPv4 address 156.239.9.106, which is currently listed by PhishDestroy as a malicious host. Independent scanning on VirusTotal shows that 11 of 91 security vendors have flagged the domain as malicious, and the domain appears on at least one external blocklist, confirming its reputation as a threat. No public page title or content analysis is available, so the exact brand being spoofed cannot be confirmed. The lack of a disclosed SSL certificate or HTTP status code in the available data prevents assessment of transport-level security, but the presence of multiple detections and an active blocklist entry suggests the site is being used to harvest credentials or deliver malicious payloads. Defenders should immediately block the domain and its resolved IP address at perimeter firewalls, DNS resolvers, and endpoint protection solutions. Continuous monitoring of the hosting provider and name-server changes is recommended, as the infrastructure could be pivoted to additional malicious sites. Adding the domain to internal threat intelligence feeds and sharing the indicator set with industry-wide platforms will help accelerate detection across the broader security community. Organizations that rely on WhatsApp or related messaging services should be cautioned that unsolicited messages referencing the domain are likely fraudulent, and users should be instructed to verify URLs through official channels before providing any personal information. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260721-6B0A26 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-vip.chat-whatsapps.hi.cn/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=whatsapp-vip.chat-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.
