## 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.

Last verified:     2026-05-09 07:07:03 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 05:48:27 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies aeradroma.finance as a low-risk phishing domain that was taken offline after being detected. Although it posed only a limited threat, this site was designed to deceive users by mimicking legitimate financial services, potentially aiming to steal personal or financial information. Users should be cautious of such domains, as even low-risk phishing attempts can compromise sensitive data.

the phishing tactic employed by aeradroma.finance involved creating a website titled "Aerodrome" to lure victims into believing it was a trustworthy finance-related platform. This domain was registered through Tucows Domains Inc., and despite being flagged on one security blocklist and by two security vendors on VirusTotal, it remained active for some time, resolving to the IP address 172.67.184.178. The site’s offline status now prevents further immediate risk, but remnants of its presence may still be found in email scams or links.

If you visited aeradroma.finance, it is important to remain vigilant. Avoid entering any personal or financial information on similar suspicious sites. Users who have interacted with this domain should monitor their accounts for unusual activity and consider updating passwords or enabling multi-factor authentication to mitigate potential damage. Reporting such incidents to authorities or security platforms can also help prevent others from falling victim to related phishing campaigns.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       4c13d452dd5d49671bd93ca32f2b4f85c78e39b6ab0ad1f38d98ed267f8fd896
TLS cert SHA-256:      0dc761e967556ad32d82420c55c41b92c581a707917465e003dd030898f89918

## 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.
