      Dear John,
      How come you hearted this comment, but didn't put it in the description? Timestamps are useful, and when the original creator doesn't add any, some commenters are nice enough to do it anyways, such as Stef. You hearted it. Why don't you put it in the description? I've seen some people that don't make timestamps still add viewer-provided ones with a note like "thanks to Stef for providing timestamps". Why don't you do it? Chapters are nice. pls
      Sincerely, ME

      Better yet, the zip is for LA, Cali but the phone goes to a different city in Cali. Then there's the fact the street address is likely fake too given it's numbers and first two letters repeat which makes it look like a 1234 address...

    The absolute shock in your face when you ran into that RDP info was priceless. I know sometimes you do alot of the legwork off cam and then kinda roll through the thought process and show us a live step by step for the videos. That's what I think you were doing until that RDP moment and the sudden conflict your face showed when you seemed to think "can I/should I chase this down right now?" Truly an awesome video man.

    • @roadmonitoroz
      @roadmonitoroz 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wouldn't doing just a while loop attract too much attention if its banging away as fast as it can ?
      It's like if you are attacking a system the IDS will notice weird things like this .
      Maybe put some random timeouts (10 - 20 seconds apart) would be a better idea.
      Apart from that, you'd want to randomize the data so they don't all say F-you as the password or have the same username / email etc.

    Really good stuff and great use of OSINT. However, the registrar could be a victim of the phishing scam and just had their server hijacked.
    I know the probability of this is low as the server was setup to return fake 404 on the files present and didn’t have anything else but if this is a major operation they might be swapping servers at a certain interval 🤷‍♂️
    Great advice too: MFA rullz and the IT department is there for a reason!

    A few small notes; There's a very good chance the credential harvesting page is on a legitimate website that was compromised by the attacker. I don't know that this is what happened here, but just be aware of that before going after the domain owner quite so hard.
    Second, it is generally far more useful to make the abuse report to the hosting provider that is hosting the malicious content, rather than the domain name registrar. Reporting to both is also fine of course, and frequently the two are the same entity but not in this case.
    Lastly, this sort of thing is pretty common. Any reasonably sized organization will see these sort of phishing campaigns regularly.
