## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 60/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

Fingerprint: 92f929aa4e5ab0ba4f8a1f39afd872dca073b3081bffbd05193519aaebf99cca

## 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: 2026-04-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-04-21 12:24:25 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-04-23 13:40:07 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-04-23 00:16:30 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-21 12:25:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

appwebclouds.com has been flagged with an elevated risk level and identified as a generic phishing site actively distributing a crypto drainer payload. This domain mimics legitimate cloud service interfaces to trick users into connecting crypto wallets, enabling unauthorized fund transfers. The presence of a crypto drainer indicates a high potential for direct financial loss, as compromised wallets often experience rapid depletion of assets following a single interaction.  This domain was registered on January 25, 2025, through Cloudflare, Inc., and resolves to IP address 172.67.211.166. It utilizes a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, which may lend an appearance of legitimacy. However, VirusTotal analysis shows that only 1 out of 95 security vendors currently detect it, and its recent creation and cloud-hosted infrastructure suggest opportunistic deployment targeting unsuspecting users. Despite the SSL certificate, the lack of widespread detection highlights the sophisticated evasion tactics employed by threat actors.  To mitigate exposure to this threat, users should avoid accessing appwebclouds.com or any associated links, especially those received via unsolicited emails or social media messages. If a wallet connection was made, immediately disconnect the wallet, revoke any suspicious permissions through blockchain explorers, and transfer remaining assets to a new, secure wallet. Organizations should update threat intelligence feeds and block both the domain and IP at the network perimeter to prevent access.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       cb1796b179fb95374ac35a660b6d0e19
TLS cert SHA-256:      92f929aa4e5ab0ba4f8a1f39afd872dca073b3081bffbd05193519aaebf99cca

## 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.
