## 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

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 01:53:23 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies app-pulsex.cc as an active phishing domain classified under generic phishing threats. This domain is designed to deceive users into divulging sensitive information by masquerading under misleading page titles such as "BunnyCDN Node DE1-1077." Its registration on February 21, 2026, and ongoing malicious activity position it as a significant threat in the phishing landscape.

Technically, app-pulsex.cc resolves to the IP address 169.150.247.34 and is currently listed on three security blocklists, highlighting its recognition by cybersecurity communities as a high-risk entity. VirusTotal analysis indicates that 11 out of 95 security vendors detect this domain as malicious, reinforcing its credibility as a phishing source. The domain’s infrastructure leverages common content delivery network (CDN) terminology, likely to lend it an appearance of legitimacy and to facilitate global distribution.

The domain remains active and poses an ongoing risk to internet users. PhishDestroy recommends users avoid visiting app-pulsex.cc and exercise caution when encountering unsolicited links. Reporting incidents related to this domain can assist in mitigation efforts. Continuous monitoring and timely blocking of this domain by security providers are essential to minimize potential harm.

## 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.
