Registrar: Name.com, Inc.

HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: DigiCert Inc / Encryption Everywhere DV TLS CA - G2 Expires: 2026-05-30 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: bad4e7f988dde9c36845e6f9c2a0d135719c8c4caf0a0328345663ac2a5468b8 ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:20:57 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-19 13:14:52 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-15 18:05:48 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c57ca-751f-720d-a147-9da14199dc54/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/aml-botz.org crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.aml-botz.org Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=aml-botz.org AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/aml-botz.org URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/aml-botz.org/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 02:30:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies aml-botz.org as a medium-risk brand impersonation domain targeting AMLBot. The site presented itself as an aml botz resource hub to mislead visitors. Technical analysis reveals aml-botz.org resolved to IP 63.176.8.218 and was registered via Name.com on February 21, 2026. It appeared on two security blocklists, triggered Google Safe Browsing's social engineering warnings, and was noted in AlienVault OTX threat intelligence. Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 0/100, with 6 of 95 VirusTotal vendors flagging it. Currently, aml-botz.org is offline, reflecting responsive takedown actions. PhishDestroy continues monitoring to prevent further phishing attempts linked to this infrastructure. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 6/93 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: def00c11b1596db4efee6a9fbe64fc27 TLS cert SHA-256: bad4e7f988dde9c36845e6f9c2a0d135719c8c4caf0a0328345663ac2a5468b8 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/aml-botz.org/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=aml-botz.org Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
