garantiassets-ltd[.]com

The domain garantiassets-ltd.com has been confirmed as a credential theft site designed to impersonate Garanti Assets Management. Analysis indicates the site was actively harvesting login credentials and sensitive financial information from victims under the guise of a legitimate asset management service. The domain is currently offline, though its infrastructure remains a potential threat for future reactivation or reuse in similar campaigns. Technical indicators reveal the domain was flagged by 8 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, with trust scores of 0/100 (Gridinsoft) and 1/100 (Scamadviser). It was registered through Dynadot LLC on February 21, 2026, an anomalous future date suggesting domain spoofing or registry manipulation. The site resolved to IP address 198.251.84.236 and employed technologies including particles.js, UIKit, LiteSpeed, and Smartsupp for enhanced user interaction and tracking. It appeared on one security blocklist and was blocked by PhishDestroy. The SSL certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt, a common tactic to lend superficial legitimacy to malicious domains. Infrastructure analysis reveals a low-complexity but effective credential theft operation, likely targeting individuals with ties to financial services or asset management. The use of a future creation date may indicate an attempt to evade detection by domain age-based filters. Organizations and individuals are advised to block the domain and its associated IP at the network level, revoke any credentials potentially exposed through this site, and monitor for signs of unauthorized access. Security teams should treat domains with anomalous registration dates as high-risk indicators, even if currently inactive. End users should verify the legitimacy of financial service domains through official channels before entering sensitive information.
