Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/easysearching.net/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Generic Phishing

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      3/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: CRDF, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar
AlienVault OTX:  4 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions)
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       NameCheap, Inc.
Nameservers:     ["arch.ns.cloudflare.com", "bella.ns.cloudflare.com"]
Registered:      2026-06-07
Page title:      Easy Search

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-06-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-08 01:37:12 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-07 21:12:59 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-28 00:20:34 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-10 06:51:25 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:39:31 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has identified easysearching.net as a generic phishing domain with a elevated risk level. The site, titled 'Easy Search,' was registered through NameCheap, Inc. and created on June 07, 2026. While no specific brand impersonation or drainer kit has been identified, its presence in 4 AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses and on 1 security blocklist confirms malicious intent. The domain's generic name and lack of legitimate association suggest it was designed to deceive users into entering sensitive information.

Technical indicators further underscore the threat. VirusTotal reports that 3 out of 95 security vendors flag this domain as malicious, a significant detection rate. The domain is currently offline, but its creation date of June 07, 2026 indicates recent activity. No IP address was provided in the intelligence, but the registrar, NameCheap, Inc., is commonly abused by threat actors. Google Safe Browsing status is not specified, but the presence on a blocklist suggests it has been actively used in attacks.

As of now, easysearching.net has been taken offline, likely due to reports from security researchers or hosting provider intervention. However, the risk remains for users who may have previously interacted with the site or received links via email or social media. PhishDestroy recommends that anyone who visited this domain change their passwords and monitor accounts for suspicious activity. Always verify website legitimacy through PhishDestroy's database before entering personal information.

## 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.
