## 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: 2026-04-26 16:51:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies the domain en-ex-odus.wixstudio.com as an active brand impersonation threat targeting the Exodus cryptocurrency wallet brand. This fraudulent site is hosted on WixStudio, a legitimate website builder abused to create deceptive pages. The domain mimics the official Exodus branding to trick users into entering private keys or seed phrases, a classic drainer-kit tactic. The fraudulent page is designed to harvest sensitive wallet data under the guise of a legitimate service, posing a direct risk to cryptocurrency users. The impersonation strategy leverages visual similarity and false urgency to deceive visitors into surrendering credentials or funds.

This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy with concrete technical indicators: VirusTotal detection score of 0 out of 95 scanning engines, IP resolution to 34.144.206.118, and SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt. The domain uses the WixStudio platform, which complicates immediate takedown due to the legitimate hosting environment. While no blocklist count is available, this domain remains actively monitored under investigation status. The registrar is Wix.com, and the SSL certificate provides a false sense of legitimacy to unsuspecting users, increasing the risk of successful deception.

The current status of en-ex-odus.wixstudio.com is active and under investigation by PhishDestroy. Immediate response actions include user awareness campaigns and domain reputation flagging. Despite the lack of detections on VirusTotal, the domain remains a high-risk threat due to its clear intent to impersonate Exodus. Remaining risk is assessed as elevated, with potential for continued abuse until takedown or blacklisting occurs. Users are strongly advised to verify URLs carefully, avoid entering sensitive information on third-party sites, and consult official Exodus communication channels. The seed identifier for this report is 37eeae.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       9dae2d380288ac898efffb0f06444e23
TLS cert SHA-256:      79b690ec6aae60ba0de52d269638de0a570e5a2c2e467d8b649454d39b9edaab

## 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.
