# PhishDestroy threat dossier — zlon8.cc ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-23 14:49:42 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/zlon8.cc/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 11/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Lionic, SOCRadar AlienVault OTX: 2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 178.20.210.6 (KZ, Būlaevo) ASN: AS210006 Shereverov Marat Ahmedovich Hosting org: Shereverov network 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: ["hold1.suspendedaccount.com", "hold2.suspendedaccount.com"] HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YE1 Expires: 2026-09-07 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 79cf315eca30251ecdac4f03117b51f4480c41e0cb1d335222f7c44b730899d9 ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-19 12:38:16 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-23 16:20:27 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-20 00:23:39 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-20 00:42:20 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] zlon8.cc — Phishing Investigation Report Analysis of the domain zlon8.cc indicates that it has been taken offline as of the reporting date. The domain is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is served by the nameservers hold1.suspendedaccount.com and hold2.suspendedaccount.com, which are commonly associated with suspended or placeholder accounts. Infrastructure traces show the domain resolving to IP 178.20.210.6, located in Kazakhstan within the Shereverov network. The web server returns HTTP 403, and the TLS certificate is issued by Let’s Encrypt (entity YE1), suggesting a recent attempt to secure the site. Threat intelligence sources list the domain in two AlienVault OTX pulses and on a single security blocklist, and it is currently blocked by PhishDestroy. VirusTotal scans have flagged the domain in 11 of 91 security vendor engines, reinforcing the suspicion of malicious intent. Although the site is offline, the observed infrastructure and detection history imply that it was used for a generic phishing campaign. Defenders should continue to block the domain and its associated IP, monitor for any re‑activation, and incorporate the indicator set into email and web filtering rules. Ongoing vigilance is recommended given the recent activity recorded in threat‑intel feeds. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 79cf315eca30251ecdac4f03117b51f4480c41e0cb1d335222f7c44b730899d9 ## 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/zlon8.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=zlon8.cc 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.
