OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent.

chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a
cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-24 01:09:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has identified avaprize.com as a potential brand impersonation threat targeting Across. The risk level remains under investigation due to suspicious activity.

Although the domain is currently offline, it was registered recently and appeared on one security blocklist. It resolves to IP 76.76.21.22 and shows no detections on VirusTotal, with a very low trust score from Gridinsoft and Scamadviser. The site used the page title 'Homepage | Avax.network' to confuse users.

Users and organizations should remain vigilant, avoid interacting with this domain, and ensure URLs are verified before entering credentials. The domain has been taken offline, reducing immediate risk but monitoring continues.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-1769585739-avaprize.com
Favicon MD5:       5e8a22a2468ae179f9fb305bf5deb46a
TLS cert SHA-256:      decde50aba317177488562ff292e39bb7360822fc4a7907a253d20720e19510b

## 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.
