Issuer:     none
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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: 2026-06-29 01:15:41 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, amlcheck.financial, poses a brand impersonation threat specifically targeting AML Scam. The site is designed to mimic legitimate AML compliance platforms, tricking users into submitting sensitive financial information under the guise of anti-money laundering verification. Visitors may unknowingly provide credentials, personal data, or payment details to malicious actors.

Technical indicators confirm the threat. The domain was registered on April 13, 2026, through HOSTINGER operations, UAB, a registrar frequently associated with phishing infrastructure. It resolves to IP address 195.2.70.229 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which provides a false sense of security. VirusTotal analysis shows 0 out of 95 scanners detect malicious content, meaning the domain evades current signature-based detection and remains active.

If you visited amlcheck.financial, do not enter any information. Immediately change passwords for any accounts used on the site and enable two-factor authentication. Monitor financial accounts for unauthorized transactions and report the domain to relevant cybersecurity authorities. Avoid interacting with the site further and block it at the network level if possible.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260628-FD874E
Favicon MD5:       00ae6ca149472387f9c07918cab3a006

## 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.
