AlienVault OTX:  2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions)
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      51.161.196.101
Page title:      Coindaxe - Buy, sell and trade Crypto with ease
HTTP response:   200

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     Let's Encrypt / YR1

Fingerprint: a2baf4f29f8f1d8d116140378c31f457f1f29355dfbf9085c1aad5de4968c3ce

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-06-07 11:21:19 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-07 11:10:35 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-24 20:20:38 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-14 00:46:26 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:39:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies coindaxe.us as a threat posing a significant risk to users, particularly those interested in cryptocurrency trading, as it attempts to deceive them into divulging sensitive information. This domain was flagged due to its dubious nature, with 5 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal detecting it as malicious, and its creation was facilitated through a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate issued by YR1, which does not necessarily indicate legitimacy but does suggest some level of technical sophistication, and it was registered through a process integrated with its registrar. 

 The domain's presence in 2 AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses and its appearance on 1 security blocklist further solidify concerns about its authenticity, and with its current status being offline, it suggests that actions have been taken to mitigate its potential harm, given that it resolves to the IP address 51.161.196.101. 

 If a user has visited coindaxe.us, they should immediately check their accounts for any suspicious activity and consider changing their passwords, as generic_phishing threats like this one can lead to significant financial losses if not addressed promptly, and reviewing the full report can provide more insights into the nature of this threat and how to protect oneself from similar scams in the future.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       9a34052d47e93ef0cd218dd9fb907b1a
TLS cert SHA-256:      a2baf4f29f8f1d8d116140378c31f457f1f29355dfbf9085c1aad5de4968c3ce

## 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.
