# PhishDestroy threat dossier — x-redirection-secured.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-04 03:35:45 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/x-redirection-secured.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 73/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.133.221 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: coleman.ns.cloudflare.com, tani.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-07-01 Expires: 2027-07-01 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 7b04ac2af749840774726f7a887cba3aeb9b188e8f066272a119e7a028c24ae8 ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-07-01 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-02 14:50:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-04 04:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-03 12:17:53 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f22e0-27a8-715d-8ac6-92e51f004917/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/x-redirection-secured.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.x-redirection-secured.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=x-redirection-secured.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/x-redirection-secured.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/x-redirection-secured.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-02 15:00:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as an active credential phishing infrastructure designed to harvest sensitive login credentials, particularly targeting financial institutions and corporate authentication portals. Analysis indicates the site employs deceptive redirect mechanisms and cloned login interfaces to trick victims into submitting usernames, passwords, and multi-factor authentication codes. The domain specifically impersonates secure redirection services, a tactic commonly used to bypass user skepticism by appearing as a legitimate intermediary during authentication flows. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on July 01, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with malicious domains. As of the latest assessment, the domain resolves to IP address 104.21.5.214 and has evaded detection on major blocklists, with 0/95 detections reported by VirusTotal. The absence of prior flagging suggests either recent deployment or the use of evasion techniques such as domain shadowing, fast-flux DNS, or cloaking to avoid automated detection systems. The creation date, set in the future, may indicate an attempt to manipulate domain age perception or could be a typographical error in registration records. Users who have interacted with x-redirection-secured.com should immediately revoke any entered credentials, particularly for banking, email, or corporate accounts. Monitor all linked financial and communication platforms for unauthorized access attempts, as harvested credentials are often exploited within hours of collection. Implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) using app-based or hardware tokens, as SMS-based MFA can be intercepted through phishing kits. Network administrators should block the domain and its resolved IP (104.21.5.214) at the firewall or DNS level to prevent further access. If browser sessions were active during interaction, clear all cached data and run a full malware scan to detect potential session hijacking or keylogging payloads. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 3/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 7b04ac2af749840774726f7a887cba3aeb9b188e8f066272a119e7a028c24ae8 ## 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/x-redirection-secured.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=x-redirection-secured.com 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.
