## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 93/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Generic Phishing

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Kaspersky, SOCRadar
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      185.244.151.84 (RO, Bucharest)
ASN:             ASAS60117 HS Host Sailor Ltd, AE
Hosting org:     AS60117 Host Sailor Ltd
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

## 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: 2026-06-25 17:59:56 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain poses a specific threat of credential theft by impersonating APEX Financial Solutions, a legitimate financial services company. The attackers are likely attempting to trick users into providing sensitive information such as login credentials, which can then be used for further malicious activities.

Analysis indicates that the domain afsmanagers.com has been flagged by 2 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a moderate level of detection. The domain was registered through NameSilo, LLC on June 21, 2024, and resolves to the IP address 185.244.151.84, which is located in Romania and is part of the AS60117 Host Sailor Ltd network. The domain appears on one security blocklist and is blocked by PhishDestroy, indicating that it has been identified as part of a known phishing infrastructure.

If users have visited afsmanagers.com, they should immediately change their passwords for any APEX Financial Solutions accounts and any other accounts where the same credentials were used. It is also recommended to monitor their financial statements for any unauthorized transactions and to report the incident to APEX Financial Solutions and their local cybersecurity authorities. Users should avoid clicking on any links or providing any personal information on this site and should verify the authenticity of any communication purporting to be from APEX Financial Solutions.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       2a702cf66fb3cdb066ec16f471744d25
TLS cert SHA-256:      a3e60995a7767ce3eb14201e3d1aee3fe7214d639f04e8f56dbbd2584bed76ff

## 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.
