remove-strike[.]pro

PhishDestroy analysts have identified remove-strike.pro as a generic phishing domain designed to harvest YouTube account credentials under the guise of resolving copyright strike notifications. The site presents a convincing replica of YouTube's copyright strike appeal page, tricking users into entering their login details. This domain was registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com on April 27, 2026, and resolves to IP address 172.67.182.78, with no SSL certificate present. Threat intelligence sources, including AlienVault OTX, have recorded this domain in one pulse, and it appears on one security blocklist. VirusTotal data shows that 6 out of 95 security vendors flag this domain as malicious, indicating a moderate level of detection among security solutions. As of the latest check, the domain is offline, having been taken down following identification. However, users should remain vigilant as similar domains may appear. PhishDestroy advises users who may have interacted with this site to change their YouTube passwords immediately and enable two-factor authentication. Organizations should block access to the domain and educate employees about phishing tactics that exploit platform-specific features like copyright strikes. The risk is elevated due to the targeted nature of the attack and the potential for credential theft, though the domain's current offline status reduces immediate danger.
