## 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: 2026-06-22 23:08:28 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain claims-hash256.org, associated with a suspicious token scam, has been taken offline. Despite its current status, it has been flagged by one out of 95 vendors on VirusTotal and is listed on four public blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, ScamSniffer, and SEAL. The page title suggests a connection to a 'HASH browser-mined post-quantum token', indicating a potentially fraudulent cryptocurrency operation.

Registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and hosted by CloudFlare, Inc. in Canada, the domain was created on May 14, 2026, and detected by PhishDestroy the following day. The swift detection highlights the effectiveness of PhishDestroy's monitoring systems, which capture threats in the critical window before broader antivirus database updates.

The domain's SSL certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt, a common choice for both legitimate and malicious sites due to its ease of use and free service. The platform risk score of 63 out of 100 suggests a moderate threat level, underscoring the importance of early detection and blocklisting. While the specific scam type remains unidentified, the combination of these factors points to a sophisticated attempt to exploit users in the cryptocurrency space.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260515-7243CF
Favicon MD5:       a5bed02712070a59fcbb35511b171a42
TLS cert SHA-256:      67d60eba078ee8b1670daa00148fbd0b19d19fb23259e317d8d9deb2d10cd96d

## 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.
