## 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: 2026-05-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-05-08 11:30:08 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-17 20:27:05 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-05-09 01:19:18 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE

[Generated: 2026-06-09 08:03:35 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Threat Overview
This domain is a generic phishing/scam operation hosted on Amazon S3 infrastructure, currently taken down. It uses a deceptive name mimicking Amazon Web Services to appear legitimate. The domain was created on 2026-05-08 and is no longer active.

Risk Indicators
- 10 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged this domain as malicious.
- The domain is listed on 1 public blocklist.
- 7 security vendors, including ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, CyRadar, G-Data, Gridinsoft, LevelBlue, and Sophos, detected it as malicious.

Technical Details
- Registrar: MarkMonitor Inc.
- Hosting IP: 54.231.133.42
- VirusTotal: 10 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged this domain as malicious (domain scan, not IP)
- Domain Created: 2026-05-08

Recommendations
- Block and report this domain immediately via your threat-intel platform.
- Review any logs for connections to this domain and investigate for compromised credentials.
- Add the hosting IP 54.231.133.42 to your blocklist to prevent future access.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       3c1378d54608925fe1dff523c02e4f7a
TLS cert SHA-256:      7ebf42635dc32bcb97f60e383ee1f86339aacea239e156b98d741c7912671436

## 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.
