## 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: 2022-02-22 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-22 14:50:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-22 12:51:18 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-23 08:20:37 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-22 18:17:29 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-22 23:02:02 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Anonhost.xyz, a phishing domain, has been flagged by 5 out of 91 vendors on VirusTotal, indicating its malicious nature. Despite its current offline status, the domain was operational long enough to attract attention and be listed on one public blocklist, specifically by PhishDestroy. This suggests that it was actively engaged in phishing activities before being taken down.

The domain was registered with NAMECHEAP INC and hosted on an IP address associated with Cloudflare, Inc., located in the United States. The SSL certificate was issued by Google Trust Services, indicating an attempt to appear legitimate. The domain's creation date of February 22, 2022, and its detection by PhishDestroy on June 22, 2026, suggest a considerable operational period before it was identified and flagged.

Phishing domains like anonhost.xyz exploit the time gap between their registration and detection by antivirus databases. This domain managed to operate under the radar until it was eventually flagged by a few security vendors. The platform risk score of 68 out of 100 further underscores its potential threat level during its active period. Although it is no longer a direct threat due to its offline status, its existence highlights the ongoing challenges in combating phishing scams.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260622-A60430
Favicon MD5:       5521a86a6d1ee942642eac64d068d467
TLS cert SHA-256:      37f0200865237ee438525857fd3c0af2732c438b781c80c78bd61a90e3875c84

## 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.
