Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies zhentishow.com as a high-risk brand impersonation phishing domain targeting Aptos users. Its main threat stemmed from falsely presenting itself with Aptos-related branding to deceive victims and steal credentials or install malicious software. Due to its malicious intent and active use, the domain was rated with a high-risk level. Supporting intelligence reveals the domain was created recently on February 25, 2025, registered through Ripcurl Domains, LLC, and resolved to IP 104.21.7.40. It was flagged by 13 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and appeared on two distinct security blocklists, indicating that multiple cybersecurity entities recognized its harmful nature. The domain’s page title referenced legitimate-sounding software downloads which is a common tactic to lure victims into phishing traps. Despite a low trust score from Gridinsoft (0/100), the domain’s infrastructure and behavior demonstrated clear malicious intent. Currently, zhentishow.com has been taken offline, mitigating immediate risk from this specific domain. However, users and organizations should remain vigilant against similar Aptos impersonation attempts, as threat actors often recycle tactics with new domains. It is recommended to avoid clicking on suspicious links related to Aptos and verify all download sources through official channels. Continuous monitoring and blocking of known phishing domains remain critical in defending against evolving brand impersonation threats. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 13/95 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: fe2389b7a1ee96ca436b5ed684c94c61d561b1c9af8a463a79b6c19cf84e7413 TLS cert SHA-256: a6372619c39eb3c7046336f17c7a2fe2e96e029d1f2e44c4a4897bdc56074b79 ## 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/zhentishow.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=zhentishow.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
