## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-02-06 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

First reported:    2026-07-17 12:29:57 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-24 00:20:30 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-18 10:36:07 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE

88920.xyz Safety Check — Credential Phishing Detected

Analysis indicates that the domain 88920.xyz is actively associated with credential phishing infrastructure. Registered on February 6, 2026, through Gname.com Pte. Ltd., the domain resolves to the IP address 103.27.177.164 and is secured with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, a common choice for both legitimate and malicious sites. The domain has been flagged in two threat intelligence pulses on AlienVault OTX, suggesting its use in ongoing phishing campaigns. As of July 17, 2026, the domain remains active, and 14 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal have detected it as malicious, reinforcing its classification as a high-risk threat.  Infrastructure analysis reveals no specific brand or service being impersonated at this time, and the exact content of the phishing site has not been analyzed. However, the combination of recent registration, active resolution, and multiple vendor detections aligns with patterns observed in credential harvesting operations. Defenders should treat this domain as hostile and prioritize blocking or monitoring access to it. Further investigation into associated IP infrastructure and certificate reuse may uncover additional linked phishing domains. The absence of additional context, such as a known phishing kit or targeted brand, does not diminish the risk posed by this domain, given its current detection profile and threat intelligence associations.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260717-40E976
TLS cert SHA-256:      18a57f9b950bca83b1dc0321e87aa9f8204efcc8a15ec786aaa6852019b9f0f2

## SCORING METHODOLOGY
----------------------------------------------------------------
Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates:
  - VirusTotal positive ratio
  - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus,
    CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB)
  - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor)
  - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.)
  - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing
  - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts
  - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording)
  - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures)
  - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...)
  - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal)
  - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record)
  - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team)

A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does
NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their
first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite
score and the individual indicators above, not just VT.
