## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-07 04:32:05 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, bitcoin4swapper.com, is operating as a brand impersonation scam targeting Bitcoin users. The site mimics Bitcoin’s branding to trick visitors into connecting wallets or entering sensitive information, risking fund theft or credential compromise.  PhishDestroy’s investigation confirms this threat through multiple indicators. The domain was registered on March 01, 2026, through SOLLUTIUM LLC and resolves to IP 188.114.96.3. As of this report, VirusTotal shows 0 out of 95 security vendors have flagged it, underscoring the need for caution despite its current low detection rate. The site also uses a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, a tactic often leveraged to appear legitimate.  If you visited bitcoin4swapper.com, do not enter any wallet passwords, recovery phrases, or private keys. Disconnect your device from the internet and scan for malware. Report the domain to your antivirus provider and consider revoking any connected wallet permissions via tools like revoke.cash. Monitor your transaction history closely and report suspicious activity to your local cybercrime unit.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260507-D25A8C
Favicon MD5:       a48af79f308bbe80135fdce8d1629268
TLS cert SHA-256:      c322330e3eb78e421dd6df324378fb755f9763f0fb20a3478b7c69f2f9fd11ff

## 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.
