## 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 23:19:45 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-04-23 20:19:45 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 16:52:40 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies amlbot.vip as a low-risk phishing domain that was recently taken offline. While the immediate threat is reduced, this domain previously posed a danger by attempting to deceive users into revealing sensitive information. Phishing sites like amlbot.vip often mimic legitimate services to trick visitors into sharing personal data such as login credentials or financial details.

This phishing operation functioned by luring users to amlbot.vip, where fraudulent content was displayed to impersonate trusted entities. The goal was to harvest confidential information for malicious use. Although only a small number of security vendors flagged this domain and it appeared on three security blocklists, the risk remains significant enough to warrant caution. The domain was registered in February 2026 and has since been taken offline, reducing the immediate threat.

If you visited amlbot.vip, it is crucial to take prompt action. Users should avoid entering any personal information on suspicious sites and immediately change passwords for any accounts that might have been compromised. Additionally, monitoring financial statements and enabling multi-factor authentication can help mitigate potential damage. Staying informed about emerging phishing threats and using trusted security tools will enhance protection against similar scams in the future.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      84fc0295764ffdcac953c88f812dd488a743c1e54342a5ffb40f207fd7b07732

## 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.
