Analysis of the domain config-update.online indicates a credential phishing campaign active since its registration on February 21, 2026, through HOSTINGER operations, UAB. The domain resolves to the IP address 45.61.157.248, hosted under AS14956 (RouterHosting LLC) in the United States. Nameservers ns1.dns-parking.com and ns2.dns-parking.com are associated with the infrastructure, a pattern observed in other low-reputation domains leveraging parking or bulletproof hosting services. As of July 24, 2026, the domain has been taken offline, though it remains flagged on three security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL, suggesting prior malicious activity.
No SSL certificate was detected, increasing the likelihood of interception or tampering during credential transmission. The page title, config-update.online/, provides no explicit brand targeting, and no phishing kit or specific scam subtype (e.g., crypto, banking, or corporate login) has been confirmed in available intelligence. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0/100, reinforcing its classification as high-risk. While two of 93 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain, this detection rate alone does not confirm the full scope of compromise or the effectiveness of mitigations.
Defenders are advised to treat this domain as compromised for the duration of its registration period. Blocklist integration is recommended, particularly for organizations using PhishDestroy, MetaMask, or SEAL. Given the absence of SSL and the use of a hosting provider historically linked to malicious activity, network-level blocking of 45.61.157.248 and monitoring of associated nameservers may reduce exposure. No further content analysis is available at this time, and the domain’s offline status limits additional forensic review.

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
An estimated time describes an observation window. It does not prove a registrar action or the exact moment a site became unavailable.

After a phishing incident
Recomendações e orientações para as vítimas
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
O que devo fazer agora mesmo?
Urgente
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Alterar todas as senhas — e-mail, contas do Exchange, qualquer coisa que use a mesma senha
Ativar a autenticação de dois fatores usando um aplicativo autenticador (não por SMS). Desative a recuperação por SMS
Cartões de congelamento se você inseriu dados bancários no site de phishing
Que informações devo coletar para o meu relatório?
Diretrizes do FBI
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Datas e horários exatos — de cada transação e do primeiro contato com o golpista
Capturas de tela — sites fraudulentos, mensagens de bate-papo, e-mails, transações em carteiras digitais, redes sociais
Todas as URLs e domínios utilizado pelo golpista (incluindo config-update.online)
Comunicações — e-mails, mensagens de texto, números de telefone e nomes de usuário que o golpista utilizou
Mesmo que você não tenha todos os detalhes — registre uma ocorrência mesmo assim. Mesmo informações parciais ainda ajudam nas investigações.
A quem devo denunciar o golpe?
FBI IC3 — Centro de Denúncias de Crimes na Internet (sistema federal de denúncias dos EUA)
Europol — Relatórios sobre crimes cibernéticos na Europa (UE)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Polícia local — cria um registro oficial, mesmo que não possam agir imediatamente
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
Sites falsos — clones idênticos, até o último pixel, de sites legítimos, com domínios ligeiramente alterados
Abate de suínos — confiança construída ao longo de semanas pelo Telegram, WhatsApp e aplicativos de namoro; em seguida, o dinheiro foi roubado
Golpes relacionados à recuperação — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
Golpes baseados em IA — deepfakes, phishing automatizado e sites gerados por IA, o que torna a fraude mais difícil de detectar
Como posso me proteger no futuro?
Adicione os sites oficiais aos favoritos — nunca clique em links de e-mails, mensagens diretas ou anúncios
Verificar domínios — verificar PhishDestroy antes de interagir. Verifique se o site usa HTTPS, a ortografia e a idade do domínio
"Bom demais para ser verdade" = golpe — retornos garantidos, endossos de celebridades, prazos urgentes
