## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     Let's Encrypt / R13
Expires:    2026-07-29
Status:     INVALID chain
Fingerprint: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4
Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator):
  - wixstudio.com

## 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:    2026-06-09 08:27:30 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-09 08:22:19 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-28 08:20:34 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-10 06:50:50 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-26 00:53:44 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain acc-htxxn-apps.wixstudio.com has been identified as a brand impersonation threat targeting HTX, a cryptocurrency exchange platform. Analysis indicates this infrastructure was designed to deceive users by mimicking the legitimate HTX brand, potentially for fraudulent activities such as credential theft or unauthorized transactions. The domain is currently offline, but prior activity warrants close scrutiny.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was flagged by 5 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating a moderate level of detection. It was registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC and resolved to the IP address 34.144.206.118, hosted on Google Cloud infrastructure. The domain appears on three security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, PhishingArmy, and OISD, further corroborating its malicious classification. The SSL certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt, a common but not exclusive indicator of legitimate domains. Technologies detected include Wix, React, Google Cloud CDN, and HTTP/3, which are consistent with modern web hosting but do not preclude malicious use.  Current status confirms the domain is offline, reducing immediate risk to users. However, organizations and individuals should remain vigilant for similar impersonation attempts targeting HTX or other cryptocurrency platforms. Recommended actions include monitoring for newly registered domains with similar naming patterns, blocking the identified IP address (34.144.206.118) at the network level, and educating users about the risks of brand impersonation in the crypto space. Security teams should also review logs for any prior interactions with this domain to assess potential exposure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4

## 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 (volunteer 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.
