ubi[.]weppb[.]icu

The domain ubi.weppb.icu was registered on 21 February 2026 and is currently taken offline. Technical analysis shows it resolves to the IP address 23.102.234.67, which is hosted in Hong Kong and belongs to ASN 8075 (Microsoft Corporation). The site presented a page title of "Whatsapp," matching the declared brand target of WhatsApp and confirming a brand‑impersonation intent. A TLS certificate was observed with an R12 rating, indicating a low‑trust certificate.

Reputation services assign extremely low scores: Gridinsoft rates the domain 0 out of 100, while Scamadviser assigns 1 out of 100, both reflecting a high likelihood of malicious activity. VirusTotal scans flagged the domain in 15 of 95 vendor engines, reinforcing the suspicion. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and has been actively blocked by PhishDestroy, demonstrating that at least one external mitigation service has taken protective action.

No additional content, login forms, or payload details have been disclosed, so the exact phishing lures or credential‑harvesting mechanisms remain unknown. Defenders should add the domain and its resolved IP to network‑level deny lists, monitor for future DNS resolutions to the same IP range, and enforce URL filtering policies that block any pages titled "Whatsapp" originating from untrusted hosts. Continuous observation of related sub‑domains and newly registered domains with similar naming patterns is recommended to pre‑empt potential re‑use of the same infrastructure.
