Nameservers: ["dns1.registrar-servers.com", "dns2.registrar-servers.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: AML Beast - Advanced Anti-Money Laundering Solution for multiple Networks ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: E5 Status: INVALID chain ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: REPORTS FILED. Domain eventually taken down after 1 abuse notice(s). Reports filed: 1 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-01-28 07:31:38 UTC Days since first notice: 84 (eventually taken down) Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies. Per-report timeline: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/amlbeast.com/#coordinated-suppression ## 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 23:22:54 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-01-28 07:31:40 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-22 17:53:15 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019816ea-295a-75d1-9893-5a760affd33b/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/amlbeast.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.amlbeast.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=amlbeast.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/amlbeast.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/amlbeast.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 16:52:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies amlbeast.com as a low-risk generic phishing domain. The domain was registered recently, on February 21, 2026, signaling a fresh attempt to deceive users by mimicking legitimate services or collecting sensitive information under false pretenses. Technical analysis shows amlbeast.com was registered through NAMECHEAP INC and appeared on one security blocklist. VirusTotal flagged the domain by one security vendor out of 95, indicating limited but credible suspicion. The domain's infrastructure aligns with typical phishing setups, using minimal defenses and quick domain registration to avoid detection. Currently, amlbeast.com has been taken offline, effectively neutralizing the immediate threat. PhishDestroy recommends maintaining vigilance against similar domains and updating security tools regularly to prevent exposure to such phishing attempts in the future. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1769585406-amlbeast.com ## 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/amlbeast.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=amlbeast.com 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.
