================================================================

Fetched:   2026-06-27 11:42:06 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/alabama.com-payhbv.vip/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 57/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      11/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: BitDefender, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       Gname.com Pte. Ltd.
Nameservers:     ["nataly.ns.cloudflare.com", "cesar.ns.cloudflare.com"]
Registered:      2026-06-12

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-27 12:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 00:14:22 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-25 22:20:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, alabama.com-payhbv.vip, is identified as a credential theft operation designed to harvest financial account logins through brand impersonation. Analysis indicates the infrastructure mimics legitimate payment or banking portals, likely targeting users through deceptive login prompts or transaction verification pages. No direct evidence of a crypto drainer kit was observed, but the credential harvesting mechanism aligns with common phishing tactics used to facilitate unauthorized account access or fraudulent transactions.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 12, 2024, through Gname.com Pte. Ltd., a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. The domain is currently associated with no active IP resolution, though historical data may exist. Detection metrics show 11 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain as malicious, while it appears on one security blocklist. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, a common tactic to lend superficial legitimacy to phishing sites. No Google Safe Browsing (GSB) detection was recorded at the time of analysis.  The domain has been taken offline, likely due to enforcement actions or hosting provider intervention. Despite its inactive status, residual risk remains for users who may have interacted with the site during its operational window. Organizations are advised to monitor for unauthorized access attempts tied to credentials potentially compromised through this campaign. Users should verify the authenticity of any financial login portal by cross-referencing official domain lists and enabling multi-factor authentication to mitigate credential theft risks.

## 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.
