================================================================

Fetched:   2026-07-21 11:36:06 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/aaalen.de/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 71/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      10/95 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Certego, Chong Lua Dao, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, Lionic, SOCRadar, Viettel Threat Intelligence
AlienVault OTX:  5 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions)
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      185.53.179.146 (CA, Toronto)
Hosting org:     AS206834 Team Internet AG
Registrar:       REGISTRAR_NOT_FOUND
Nameservers:     eugene.ns.cloudflare.com, sarah.ns.cloudflare.com
HTTP response:   200

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-07-20 21:01:55 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-07-20 19:04:08 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-21 12:20:23 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-21 00:27:26 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-20 21:03:41 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

aaalen.de used for high‑risk credential phishing – block now

Analysis indicates that the domain aaalen.de is actively used for credential phishing, classified as high risk. The site is currently blocked by the PhishDestroy mitigation service and continues to resolve to the IP address 185.53.179.146, which is associated with Cloudflare infrastructure as evidenced by its authoritative nameservers eugene.ns.cloudflare.com and sarah.ns.cloudflare.com. The domain appears on one public security blocklist, confirming that external threat‑intelligence feeds have flagged it for malicious activity. VirusTotal scans show that ten of ninety‑five security vendors have identified the domain as malicious, reinforcing the suspicion of phishing intent. No additional intelligence such as Safe Browsing status, Open Threat Exchange entries, registrar details, SSL certificate information, HTTP response codes, trust scores, or page title metadata is present in the current dataset, leaving those aspects unverified. Defenders should immediately add a deny rule for aaalen.de in perimeter firewalls and DNS filtering solutions, ensure that endpoint protection platforms ingest the VirusTotal detection count, and monitor the associated IP address for any further malicious traffic. Continuous observation of the Cloudflare‑hosted IP and periodic re‑query of threat‑intel sources are recommended to capture any changes in classification or additional indicators of compromise.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260720-4F395A

## 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.
