## 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: 2026-03-03 16:25:32 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has identified amlbot-chain.com as a generic phishing domain designed to deceive users by impersonating legitimate services. The domain was first registered on February 21, 2026, and has exhibited characteristics typical of phishing campaigns aimed at harvesting sensitive information. Although categorized as low risk, users should remain cautious due to its malicious intent.

Technical analysis reveals that amlbot-chain.com appeared on four different security blocklists and was flagged by two out of ninety-five VirusTotal scanners. The domain registration details are suspicious, classified as a "dead domain," indicating it may have been quickly abandoned or set up with minimal legitimate infrastructure. Its limited footprint and lack of active hosting reduced exposure but signaled attempts to evade detection.

Currently, amlbot-chain.com is offline, and no active phishing pages are accessible. PhishDestroy recommends users avoid interacting with any communications referencing this domain and advises IT teams to block its resolution proactively. Continuous monitoring is encouraged to detect possible domain resurrection or related phishing campaigns.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       ae4b5aa114dc7fa29042d0202ae28b05
TLS cert SHA-256:      86a4f0e16daee6445c6dc8ca46b07ed264ed955c0793977521659b68e0d2a558

## 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.
