## 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.

First reported:    2026-06-01 16:45:42 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-24 12:20:34 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:43:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, defiswap.us, was designed to trick cryptocurrency users into connecting their wallets, after which it would drain their funds. It posed as a legitimate DeFi platform, likely impersonating Uniswap given the name and page title 'The Best Crypto'. The threat is a crypto drainer, a type of malicious script that automatically transfers tokens from a victim's wallet once they authorize a transaction. Users who visited the site and connected their wallet may have lost assets.

PhishDestroy identified this threat through multiple indicators. VirusTotal flagged it with 2 out of 95 security vendors marking it as malicious. The domain was registered using a privacy service and hosted on Cloudflare, with an SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt (E8). It resolved to IP 172.67.178.194. The site is now offline, but it appeared on 3 security blocklists. The unique seed 5f2fec was used to track this analysis.

If you visited defiswap.us and connected your wallet, immediately revoke any token approvals using a tool like Etherscan's token approval checker or Revoke.cash. Do not interact with any transactions from this site. Monitor your wallet for unauthorized transfers and consider moving funds to a new wallet if you suspect compromise. Always verify URLs carefully and use hardware wallets or browser extensions that block known malicious domains.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       6f6cefe2d26ae006a4f75ebbac617584
TLS cert SHA-256:      0fcf9345a750bcc9bb13d8a4a95990c6c10bbdf844d10eedfc2ad384a22befa1

## 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.
