Is aardvarkw.live a phishing site?

The domain aardvarkw.live is currently listed on a single public blocklist and appears in one AlienVault OTX pulse, indicating that threat intelligence sources have identified it as malicious. Network observation shows the site returns an HTTP 302 response, suggesting it redirects visitors to another location, a behavior commonly used in phishing campaigns. VirusTotal analysis reports that 16 of 91 scanned security vendors flagged the domain as malicious, providing independent confirmation of its risk profile. The domain is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy filtering service, and its status remains active as of the report date. No public page title, brand, or detailed payload information is presently available, so the specific phishing lure cannot be confirmed. While the limited number of blocklist entries and OTX mentions suggest the infrastructure may be relatively new or low‑profile, the multi‑engine detections demonstrate a concrete threat. Defenders should add aardvarkw.live to deny‑list configurations, enforce DNS sinkholing where possible, and monitor inbound traffic for attempts to resolve or contact the domain. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as additional detections may emerge.

## 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.
