# PhishDestroy threat dossier — admin-v2.app.nexus-qa.com
================================================================

Fetched:   2026-07-21 07:34:19 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/admin-v2.app.nexus-qa.com/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 46/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      1/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: SOCRadar
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       Amazon Registrar, Inc.
Nameservers:     ["daisy.ns.cloudflare.com", "jerome.ns.cloudflare.com"]
HTTP response:   404

## 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:    2026-07-19 13:00:19 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-07-21 08:20:23 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-20 00:25:38 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

admin-v2.app.nexus-qa.com Generic Phishing Alert

The domain admin-v2.app.nexus-qa.com was observed serving an HTTP 301 redirect and is currently listed as active. It has been added to the PhishDestroy blocklist and appears on one additional security blocklist, indicating that defensive feeds are already flagging it. VirusTotal analysis shows a single detection out of 91 scanned security vendors, confirming at least one engine identified malicious behavior. No public information about the underlying page content, targeted brand, or phishing kit has been released, so the exact luring technique remains unknown. Defenders should treat the domain as high‑risk, enforce outbound DNS filtering to block resolution, add it to web‑proxy and firewall deny lists, and consider sinkholing the hostname to capture any residual traffic. Continuous monitoring of the redirect target and any associated IP infrastructure is advised, as the 301 response may be used to steer victims to a credential‑harvesting site.

## 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.
