## 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:     2026-07-06 18:20:26 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-06 15:16:09 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain china-shopify.com poses a brand impersonation threat by replicating official Shopify login interfaces to capture user credentials and session data. The site title explicitly references Chinese-language Shopify access points to increase perceived legitimacy among targeted visitors. Infrastructure analysis reveals active deployment with an SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt.

Technical indicators include a VirusTotal detection rate of 13/95 security vendors, registration through GoDaddy.com, LLC, and a creation date of October 17, 2025. The domain remains active and resolves to IP address 43.134.99.137. No additional blocklist counts were recorded in available intelligence.

Users who visited the domain should immediately change any Shopify credentials entered, enable multi-factor authentication on associated accounts, and monitor for unauthorized access attempts. Browser history and cached data from the session should be cleared. Organizations are advised to add the domain and its resolving IP to internal blocklists to prevent future exposure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       9640571d5ee03a2f009d44d224b5c6b4
TLS cert SHA-256:      e111797b375abde8d5acd2702ae7b9471a75c249fc57c7a3a5f0b9783c903666

## 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.
