Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: cryptocurrency
Targeted brand: linkedin (and: telegram, whatsapp, youtube)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      1/93 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: SOCRadar
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      172.67.130.15 (US, San Francisco)
ASN:             ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US

----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     WE1
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.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

Last verified:     2026-05-14 17:30:30 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-04-09 13:25:05 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-24 00:34:44 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies amldex.net as a domain impersonating the AMLBot brand, which offers crypto compliance solutions. Although flagged as low risk, the domain poses a danger by misleading users into trusting a fake site that mimics a legitimate service. Such impersonation can erode trust and potentially lead to data exposure or fraud.

This phishing site uses familiar branding and page titles like "AMLBot - Comprehensive Crypto Compliance Solution | Free AML Crypto Check" to lure users. It attempts to appear authentic but is not affiliated with AMLBot. The site is active, was created recently, and appears on at least one security blocklist, indicating suspicion from security researchers.

If you have visited amldex.net, avoid entering any personal or financial information. Run a malware scan on your device and change any passwords if you suspect compromise. Always verify URLs carefully and use official sites or trusted sources for AMLBot services to stay protected from such impersonation attempts.

## 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.
