  - wixstudio.com

## 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.

Last verified:     2026-07-09 12:20:42 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-08 00:01:07 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-07 22:15:21 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, eng-base-ext.wixstudio.com, is currently under investigation for generic phishing activity targeting cryptocurrency wallet users. Analysis indicates it operates as a credential-harvesting or wallet-draining endpoint, likely mimicking legitimate blockchain services to deceive victims into disclosing private keys or seed phrases. The domain is hosted on Wix Studio’s infrastructure, a platform frequently abused for rapid deployment of phishing pages due to its ease of use and free SSL certificates.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolves to IP address 34.144.206.118, a Google Cloud IP assigned to Wix’s hosting environment. The SSL certificate is issued by Let’s Encrypt, a common choice for threat actors due to its automation and lack of strict validation. As of the latest scan, the domain has 0 detections across 95 security engines on VirusTotal, suggesting it remains undetected by most commercial security products. No registrar details are publicly available for this subdomain, as it is nested under wixstudio.com, a legitimate service provider. Google Safe Browsing has not yet flagged the domain, and no blocklist entries were identified at the time of analysis.  The domain remains active and continues to resolve, posing an ongoing risk to users who may encounter it through malvertising, social engineering, or compromised third-party sites. Given the zero-detection status on VirusTotal, users are advised to exercise extreme caution and avoid interacting with any content hosted on eng-base-ext.wixstudio.com. Network-level blocking of the IP 34.144.206.118 is recommended for organizations seeking to mitigate exposure. The lack of prior detection underscores the need for proactive monitoring of subdomains under known hosting platforms, as threat actors increasingly leverage legitimate infrastructure to evade detection.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       f4feb61d53bc0de67557513853fa54f1
TLS cert SHA-256:      4d824d023de01f229e601938edcdb7020802d167c0d85fac21c644cf194c9450

## 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 (operator 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.
