## 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: 2026-05-12 14:08:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies crypto-monitoring.lol as an active crypto drainer posing as a simple crypto exchange for beginners. This elevated-risk domain employs deceptive tactics to trick users into connecting their wallets and approving malicious transactions.  This domain was flagged by 2 security blocklists and 2 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors. It was registered through Porkbun, LLC on May 10, 2026, and resolves to IP 185.173.37.79. The site's SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, but its recent creation date and low trust scores raise significant red flags. MetaMask and SEAL have already blocked this domain, indicating its malicious nature.  Users should avoid interacting with this site entirely. Never connect wallets or approve transactions on crypto-monitoring.lol. Verify any suspicious crypto exchange through PhishDestroy's database before proceeding. If you've already engaged with this site, revoke any wallet permissions immediately and transfer funds to a secure wallet. Always cross-check URLs and use hardware wallets for sensitive transactions.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260512-FB6C32
Favicon MD5:       968d89a9be23a4003fde49961e422caf
TLS cert SHA-256:      054b1f4f9e19c7aa11c3935e107249d3e3bae1b0f8da66f5193ea04e87d5eb7c

## 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.
