gov[.]uk-dwpuky[.]icu

The domain gov.uk-dwpuky.icu was registered on June 12, 2026, through Aceville Pte. Ltd. and is currently resolving to the IP address 43.130.72.207. Analysis indicates this infrastructure is actively flagged as phishing by at least one security vendor (PhishDestroy) and appears on one additional blocklist. Six of 91 security vendors on VirusTotal have detected this domain as malicious, suggesting elevated risk. The domain name incorporates 'gov.uk' and 'dwpuky', which aligns with impersonation of the UK Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), though the exact content of the site has not yet been analysed for specific fraud tactics or credential-harvesting mechanisms.

Infrastructure review reveals the domain was created recently, reducing the likelihood of legitimate use. The registrar, Aceville Pte. Ltd., has been associated with other phishing domains but does not inherently confirm malicious intent. No additional details regarding Autonomous System Number (ASN), hosting provider, or SSL certificate attributes are available.

Defenders should treat this domain as high-risk for UK government benefits fraud and prioritise blocking or monitoring access to 43.130.72.207. Further investigation into the hosting IP may reveal related malicious infrastructure. Given the active status and detection by multiple security vendors, organisations should assume this domain is part of a broader phishing campaign targeting DWP-related services.
