## 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: 2026-06-14 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-14 16:40:07 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-06-29 00:20:41 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-17 18:21:24 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-22 23:28:09 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Baseaave.pro targets users by impersonating the Aave platform. The domain, created on June 14, 2026, was swiftly detected by PhishDestroy on the same day. Despite its short-lived activity, it managed to get flagged by one vendor on VirusTotal and listed on a public blocklist.

The site was hosted on IP 104.21.39.222, with its SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services. The registrar, PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, is often used by malicious actors due to its lenient registration policies. The platform risk score of 61/100 indicates a moderate threat level, suggesting that the site was likely designed to deceive users into providing sensitive information.

Although the domain is currently offline, its initial detection highlights the importance of early identification in mitigating phishing threats. The rapid takedown of baseaave.pro underscores the effectiveness of proactive monitoring and swift response in the cybersecurity landscape.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       9871e69b95beccfff5b48e42b0622f6a
TLS cert SHA-256:      c895f5c9d4b8c2fd031baa92ffec72cadf0d08230f74602b4030a922f375d844

## 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.
