## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      0/95 security vendors flagged this domain
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------

## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: REPORTS FILED. Domain eventually taken down after 1 abuse notice(s).
Reports filed:   1 independent abuse notifications
First report:    2026-02-10 18:18:12 UTC
Days since first notice: 84 (eventually taken down)
Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report
via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds,
OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent.
Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting
chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a
cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-02-26 23:24:53 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-10 18:18:12 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name
Last verified:     2026-05-06 11:19:25 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-03-02 21:21:54 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-24 01:09:06 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies authtron.com as a potential generic phishing threat with a risk level currently under investigation. The domain was flagged due to suspicious activity patterns despite no confirmed detections.

Supporting evidence includes its recent registration on February 21, 2026, via NameCheap, Inc., and presence on one security blocklist. VirusTotal scans show zero detections, but Gridinsoft assigns a 0/100 trust score, indicating mistrust from some sources.

The domain is now offline, reducing immediate risk. Users are advised to avoid visiting authtron.com and remain vigilant against related phishing attempts while PhishDestroy continues monitoring its status.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-1770747487-authtron.com
Favicon MD5:       def00c11b1596db4efee6a9fbe64fc27

## 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.
