## 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: 2026-03-24 00:38:40 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies claim-gaia.foundation as a domain involved in crypto drainer threats, which are designed to illicitly siphon cryptocurrency from victims. Although the risk level is assessed as low, such threats pose significant financial risks to users interacting with compromised or malicious platforms. The domain’s activity underscores the ongoing evolution of crypto-related cybercrime tactics targeting digital asset holders.

The domain claim-gaia.foundation was registered on August 20, 2025, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and resolved to the IP address 104.21.50.103. While only one out of 95 security vendors flagged it on VirusTotal and it appeared on a single security blocklist, this domain was taken offline, indicating that hosting providers or security teams acted to disrupt its malicious operations. The page title “Nur einen Moment…” suggests an attempt to feign legitimacy or delay user suspicion.

Users are advised to avoid visiting claim-gaia.foundation or providing any sensitive information on this or similar suspicious domains. Given the potential for crypto drainers to compromise wallets or steal credentials, maintaining robust security hygiene—such as using hardware wallets, enabling two-factor authentication, and verifying URLs—is critical. Reporting suspicious domains to cybersecurity platforms and staying informed through trusted sources like PhishDestroy can help mitigate exposure to emerging threats.

## EVIDENCE HASHES

## 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.
