Threat Report: votings-virtual.net

This domain, votings-virtual.net, presents a high-risk threat as a phishing site designed to impersonate a voting or election-related platform. The site's title and content are unavailable due to its offline status, but the domain name and creation date suggest it was set up to deceive users into providing sensitive information, such as login credentials or personal data, under the guise of a legitimate voting service. The threat involves credential harvesting or data theft, targeting individuals expecting official election communications.

Technical evidence shows the domain has a VirusTotal detection rate of 6 out of 95 security vendors, with flags from Fortinet, Gridinsoft, and Trustwave. It appears on one blocklist. The domain was registered on 2025-10-08 through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited, a registrar known for minimal oversight. It resolves to IP address 193.24.123.111 hosted in Russia on AS200593 PROSPERO OOO. The site has no SSL certificate, indicating no encryption for data transmission. Nameservers are dave.ns.cloudflare.com and robin.ns.cloudflare.com.

The domain is currently down or offline, reducing immediate risk of active compromise. However, given its recent creation, lack of SSL, and low GridinSoft trust score of 0/100, it poses a significant threat if reactivated. The risk level is assessed as high due to potential for phishing attacks targeting sensitive election-related data. Monitoring for domain reactivation is recommended.
