## 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: 2026-06-25 17:57:57 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain is flagged as a high-risk credential harvesting phishing site designed to deceive users into disclosing financial account credentials. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is specifically crafted to mimic legitimate trading platforms, with a focus on capturing login details and sensitive authentication tokens. The threat type falls under generic_phishing, but with targeted financial sector characteristics, increasing the potential impact on victims.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain fxtradx.com was registered on June 15, 2026, through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. It currently resolves to IP address 172.67.217.237 and presents a page title of 'Fxtrad.' The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), a common tactic to appear legitimate. The domain appears on 3 security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. VirusTotal detection shows 2 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, indicating limited but confirmed detection coverage.  Mitigation requires immediate blocking of the domain and associated IP at network and endpoint levels. Organizations should implement DNS sinkholing for 172.67.217.237 and monitor for connections to this address. Users should be alerted to verify domain authenticity before entering credentials, particularly for financial services. Security teams should correlate logs for access attempts to fxtradx.com and investigate any successful connections for potential credential compromise or data exfiltration. The domain's active status and low detection rate necessitate proactive hunting for related indicators in network traffic.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260617-1765D0
TLS cert SHA-256:      0661386b86204caf5c30bc25ac74c3d1b7535f4b72a22c66435e981f50c02e15

## 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.
