Status:     INVALID chain
Fingerprint: bf2add61383c9cb4105effe77ff29936d6ff0229d04f7bbaaa2d00d9faceddef

## 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

Last verified:     2026-07-21 16:20:24 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-20 00:23:49 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

benefasts-fhgs2.com phishing site shut down – Cloudflare-hosted

Analysis of the domain benefasts-fhgs2.com indicates it was a generic phishing site taken offline as of July 19, 2026. Infrastructure evidence shows the domain was registered through CNOBIN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY LIMITED and used Cloudflare nameservers (dylan.ns.cloudflare.com and perla.ns.cloudflare.com). It resolved to the Cloudflare IP 172.67.147.16, located in Canada, with no direct hosting provider identified beyond Cloudflare's proxy service. The site returned an HTTP 404 status and a '404 Not Found' page title at the time of assessment, suggesting either a staging failure or post-compromise takedown.  The domain appears on one security blocklist (PhishDestroy) and is referenced in 11 AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses, confirming prior malicious classification. A Let's Encrypt SSL certificate (serial YE1) was issued, a common tactic to lend superficial legitimacy to phishing pages. While 22 of 91 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain, the absence of additional context—such as a confirmed brand target, phishing kit, or scam category—limits attribution beyond generic phishing activity.  Defenders should treat this domain as compromised infrastructure. The use of Cloudflare nameservers and proxy services aligns with common phishing evasion tactics, though no evidence suggests persistent hosting beyond the observed IP. Given its offline status and lack of active content, further forensic analysis may be constrained. Network defenders are advised to block the domain and monitor for re-registration or associated IPs in related campaigns. The registration details and SSL certificate may assist in tracking linked infrastructure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      bf2add61383c9cb4105effe77ff29936d6ff0229d04f7bbaaa2d00d9faceddef

## 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 (operator 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.
