## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-18 18:17:40 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name
Last verified:     2026-04-13 07:50:36 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-03-15 18:06:31 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means
the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered
by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution
research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 16:58:53 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies fluxion.exchange as a domain associated with generic phishing activity. Classified under a low threat level, this domain is designed to deceive users by mimicking legitimate services, as indicated by the page title "Fluxion." Established recently on February 21, 2026, it presents a typical phishing profile aimed at harvesting sensitive information.

Technical analysis highlights that fluxion.exchange resolves to the IP address 104.21.82.58. It currently appears on three security blocklists, signaling community and vendor suspicion despite being flagged by only one security vendor on VirusTotal. The domain remains active and operational, suggesting ongoing malicious campaigns or testing phases. The presence on multiple blocklists reinforces the caution advised when encountering this domain.

The domain's low risk classification does not diminish the importance of vigilance. PhishDestroy recommends monitoring and blocking fluxion.exchange to prevent potential user compromise. Given its recent creation and active status, continuous tracking is essential to intercept any evolving threats tied to this domain. Users and organizations are urged to maintain updated security measures and report any suspicious activity related to fluxion.exchange.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       c21036f4b6d7f2512449e5373d83626e03266c6825eb60ecc639cf3e4115252a

## 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.
