No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-09 14:26:24 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-14 08:20:41 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f46d7-2542-728f-b25c-f5bdb128b0e5/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/whatsapp.ie.hl.cn crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.whatsapp.ie.hl.cn Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=whatsapp.ie.hl.cn AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/whatsapp.ie.hl.cn URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/whatsapp.ie.hl.cn/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-09 14:46:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Analysis indicates that whatsapp.ie.hl.cn presents a high-risk generic phishing threat through deployment of a counterfeit WhatsApp web login page. The site employs Nginx with HSTS and HTTP/3 support alongside a Let's Encrypt certificate to establish a convincing interface that captures authentication credentials from unsuspecting visitors. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on February 28 2026 through 成都垦派科技有限公司 and currently resolves to IP address 154.206.236.8. VirusTotal detection stands at 11 out of 95 security vendors while the domain maintains active status with page title WhatsApp网页版 - 功能详解 | 全方位指南. If exposure occurred reset all associated WhatsApp linked credentials immediately enable two-factor authentication across connected accounts and monitor for unauthorized access attempts. Technical indicators such as the future creation date and elevated vendor flags warrant treating any entered information as compromised and conducting full device malware scans. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b70e6078004aeb5146c635cc4c8af761 TLS cert SHA-256: cd31082cadbc93e9b8e0dd73caa8e6c2182b734fdca9845e52d432822bd22b30 ## 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.ie.hl.cn/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=whatsapp.ie.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.
