## 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: 2026-05-05 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-05-05 13:30:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 06:49:08 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-28 12:20:59 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-24 00:11:36 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

celeryact.xyz Safety Check — Phishing Detected

Analysis indicates that the domain celeryact.xyz was registered on 5 May 2026 through a commercial registrar and is currently hosted behind Cloudflare’s network, resolving to IP 188.114.96.3 located in Canada. The authoritative nameservers are brad.ns.cloudflare.com and emma.ns.cloudflare.com. HTTP requests return a 200 status code and the site presents a valid SSL certificate issued by a public certificate authority. Threat intelligence feeds have listed the domain in seven AlienVault OTX pulses and it appears on two external blocklists, confirming its association with malicious activity. VirusTotal scans show that 16 of 91 security engines flagged the domain as malicious, and the Gridinsoft trust score is 0 out of 100, reinforcing the suspicion. The domain is actively blocked by PhishDestroy and CryptoFirewall. While the specific phishing payload or targeted brand has not been publicly disclosed, the convergence of multiple independent detections, a low trust score, and active blocklist listings classify the infrastructure as high‑risk. Defenders should add celeryact.xyz to deny‑list rules, monitor DNS queries for the domain, and ensure that any inbound or outbound traffic to the associated IP address is inspected or blocked. Ongoing observation is recommended to capture any future changes in hosting or content.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      0078f8f86c79039b867df4be2a263c9ab8346f435c7335610755288ab635a744

## 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.
