## 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: 2026-04-22 22:07:40 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies garodex.com as an active crypto drainer posing as a cryptocurrency exchange platform. This malicious domain is currently operational and has been confirmed to engage in fraudulent activities aimed at stealing cryptocurrency assets from unsuspecting users.    garodex.com was flagged by 1 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating a high likelihood of malicious intent. The domain was registered through Global Domain Group LLC, resolves to the IP address 172.67.131.18, and was created on March 16, 2026. These details, combined with its low trust scores and minimal online presence, strongly suggest a recently established scam operation designed to exploit trust in cryptocurrency trading platforms.    Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with garodex.com or any associated links, as it poses a significant risk to cryptocurrency holdings. Immediate action should be taken to report and block this domain to prevent further victimization. For a verified list of safe platforms, consult PhishDestroy’s continuously updated database of trusted cryptocurrency services.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260422-BEF876
Favicon MD5:       d8974a8bbb2f33885c5817e66c24e72b
TLS cert SHA-256:      775db142697fbfd5a5f201f901a72e61937956e4ee01c81030e343344b65d3f0

## 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.
