## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-26 13:54:46 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Is ablevtu.ng a Phishing Site?

The domain ablevtu.ng has been identified as a generic phishing site with an elevated risk level. The domain does not appear to be associated with a specific brand or drainer kit, making it a generic but potent threat vector designed to deceive users and potentially steal sensitive information.

Technical indicators for ablevtu.ng reveal a VirusTotal (VT) score of 1/95, indicating that one out of 95 security vendors flagged this domain as malicious. The domain is registered through TRUEHOST CLOUD and resolves to the IP address 66.29.137.93. It was created on February 21, 2026, and currently holds an SSL certificate issued by Sectigo Limited, specifically the Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36. The domain appears on one security blocklist, further corroborating its malicious nature.

The domain ablevtu.ng is currently offline, which may indicate that it has been taken down due to security concerns or that the campaign has concluded. Despite its offline status, the infrastructure and historical data suggest that it posed a significant risk while active. Users should exercise caution and avoid visiting the domain if it becomes active again. Security teams are advised to monitor the domain and related IP addresses for any signs of reactivation and to update their blocklists and security measures accordingly.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       1a5ddf4b835b91e634c57f9dc7fcbeba
TLS cert SHA-256:      1ea50e898753e36398e0f91e50d35395da3b8449a7d1a04dd072f05ffdcc8223

## 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.
