No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-13 05:56:55 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-03-31 01:22:55 UTC (STALE — 26 days ago, re-verify) Flagged dead: 2026-03-15 12:08:00 UTC (NOT RE-VERIFIED IN 26 DAYS — treat as unconfirmed) Current status: UNCONFIRMED (our live-probe is 26 days stale) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c54ec-3ffd-76be-bd97-9db61032073f/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/aotearoa.capital crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.aotearoa.capital Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=aotearoa.capital AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/aotearoa.capital URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/aotearoa.capital/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:50:39 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies aotearoa.capital as a low-risk generic phishing threat. The domain exhibits phishing characteristics but presents limited immediate danger. Evidence includes 2 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain, presence on one security blocklist, and registration through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited. It resolves to IP 92.113.23.168 and was created recently on February 21, 2026. Currently, aotearoa.capital is offline, reducing risk exposure. Users are advised to remain vigilant, avoid engaging with the domain, and monitor for any future reactivation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 21dd8804546de916162f62de915473ab TLS cert SHA-256: 5fd87a92224913ccb44b8b19944a6adfbf5d5122c84eeba36476b391e40da9ef ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/aotearoa.capital/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=aotearoa.capital Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
