Fingerprint: 79c0de2850392030d0778ed1503f4a5639cee53ffa04ce71da42ff68ca0373c4
Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator):
  - assettrading.org

## 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.

Neutralised:       2026-07-20 00:25:33 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

api.assettrading.org Safety Check — Phishing Detected

api.assettrading.org is currently flagged as a high‑risk phishing site. The domain resolves to the CloudFlare‑hosted address 188.114.96.3, an IP located in Canada and associated with CloudFlare, Inc. HTTP requests receive a 301 redirect, and the only visible page title returned is “Not Found”. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and is listed by PhishDestroy. VirusTotal analysis shows that 2 of 91 scanned security vendors have flagged the domain, indicating modest but notable detection. The infrastructure suggests the site is being used to host a generic phishing campaign, although the specific payload or targeted brand has not been disclosed. Because the domain remains active, defenders should block DNS resolution to 188.114.96.3, add the domain to local and network‑level blocklists, and monitor for any related traffic patterns. Additional investigation is recommended to determine the nature of the phishing content and any associated credential‑harvesting endpoints.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      79c0de2850392030d0778ed1503f4a5639cee53ffa04ce71da42ff68ca0373c4

## 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 (operator 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.
