## 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: 2026-06-23 09:43:54 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain excellent-2026-worldcup.com presents as a fraudulent sportsbook and gambling platform for the 2026 World Cup, using the Chinese title "美加墨世界杯买球平台 | 足球竞猜与开户" to lure users into betting and account registration. This site poses a threat as a potential phishing or scam operation designed to collect financial credentials and personal information under the guise of a legitimate World Cup betting service.

Technical evidence shows the site is flagged by 5 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, including alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Fortinet, G-Data, and SOCRadar, and appears on one blocklist. It was created on 2026-03-11, hosted at IP 168.76.63.155 in Hong Kong under AS137951 ASLINE LIMITED, and registered through GMO Internet, Inc. The SSL certificate is issued by TrustAsia Technologies, Inc. / LiteSSL RSA CA 2025. Nameservers are a.share-dns.com, a2.share-dns.com, b.share-dns.net, and b2.share-dns.net. The DOM risk score is 63, indicating moderate risk.

The site is currently offline, which may indicate it has been taken down or is inactive. The overall risk level is moderate based on the detection rate and domain risk score, but the fraudulent branding and recent registration suggest it was set up for malicious activity targeting World Cup fans.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260622-402EC7
Favicon MD5:       02e53b1be741cf4cfcb71bf4c48287db
TLS cert SHA-256:      9cc8f1da41edc19d8f51cd6286790e488eb6d2f19ce1bf57ed9ed200f689cb01

## 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.
