Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies worldnutrijournal.org as a generic phishing domain currently under investigation, flagged by security researchers for impersonating academic platforms to deceive victims. The site leverages a falsified trust signal—an SSL certificate from Let’s Encrypt—to appear legitimate while hosting fraudulent content. Users interacting with this domain risk credential theft, financial fraud, or malware delivery through manipulated submission forms or fake login portals. Immediate avoidance and reporting are strongly advised to prevent potential compromise. This domain was flagged under the seed identifier a9e479 and exhibits multiple red flags: it shows 0 detections out of 95 VirusTotal scans as of the latest update, indicating no antivirus or security tool has yet identified its malicious payload. Registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC, it resolves to a static IP address (116.193.190.101) with no dynamic or reputable hosting infrastructure. The domain was created on December 19, 2016, suggesting long-term malicious intent rather than a recent opportunistic campaign. As of now, it remains unlisted on major blocklists such as Google Safe Browsing, PhishTank, or OpenPhish, which may reflect its subtle or evolving operational tactics. The use of a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate adds a veneer of authenticity, exploiting user trust in HTTPS indicators. The primary threat posed by worldnutrijournal.org is credential harvesting under the guise of a legitimate academic journal. Attackers likely target researchers, academics, or students by mimicking a peer-reviewed publication platform, prompting users to submit login credentials or personal information to access 'premium content' or submit manuscripts. Given the domain’s age and lack of detection, it may operate stealthily, evolving its tactics over time while remaining under the radar. Users should avoid interacting with any login prompts, forms, or download links on this domain. Security teams are advised to block the IP 116.193.190.101 and the domain at the network and endpoint levels. Additionally, researchers should monitor for newly registered domains mimicking real academic journals, particularly those using free or automated SSL certificates, as they often serve as early indicators of similar campaigns. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 5578da4ffaec6ac664433479c07a8000 TLS cert SHA-256: 0dd2db98dad054e177d4defb85c498be33fe13883e4ea4d8fd0ec0ecfa36d52d ## 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/worldnutrijournal.org/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=worldnutrijournal.org 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.
