Composite threat score: 54/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      8/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      104.21.24.190 (CA, Toronto)
ASN:             AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Hosting org:     Cloudflare, Inc.

Nameservers:     ["jay.ns.cloudflare.com", "kinsley.ns.cloudflare.com"]
Registered:      2026-06-12

## 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: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-12 22:30:40 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-27 20:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 00:14:22 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-25 22:12:01 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, ezpass.payrot.cc, is identified as a credential harvesting phishing site targeting users through fraudulent electronic toll payment lures. Analysis indicates the domain is designed to mimic legitimate toll service portals, tricking victims into submitting login credentials, payment details, or personal information under false pretenses. The phishing kit employed by this domain likely uses cloned interfaces, form submission redirection, and session token interception to exfiltrate sensitive data to attacker-controlled infrastructure.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 12, 2026, through Gname.com Pte. Ltd., a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. It resolves to the IP address 104.21.24.190, which is part of a content delivery network known for hosting both legitimate and malicious content. The domain is flagged by 8 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, including detections for generic phishing and fraudulent activity. Additionally, it appears on 2 independent security blocklists, further corroborating its malicious classification. The SSL certificate, issued by Google Trust Services, provides HTTPS encryption, which may deceive users into perceiving the site as trustworthy despite its fraudulent intent.  Users who accessed ezpass.payrot.cc or submitted information through this domain should immediately revoke any entered credentials, particularly for financial or toll-related accounts. Monitor linked accounts for unauthorized transactions or logins, and enable multi-factor authentication where available. Security teams should block the domain and its resolving IP (104.21.24.190) at the network perimeter, and review logs for connections to this indicator. Given the domain's current offline status, further compromise is unlikely, but vigilance is advised for related phishing campaigns leveraging similar infrastructure or tactics.

## 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.
