## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-07-27 21:03:08 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-07-28 12:20:27 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-28 00:57:21 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-27 21:04:44 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

govsinfo.org: Confirmed Phishing Site

Analysis of the domain govsinfo.org indicates it is actively being used for a phishing operation. The domain is registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC and resolves to the authoritative name servers ns19.domaincontrol.com and ns20.domaincontrol.com, which are typical of GoDaddy‑hosted domains. An HTTP 301 redirect is observed, suggesting the site may be moving visitors to a malicious landing page or employing URL masking techniques. The domain is currently listed on one security blocklist and has been blocked by the PhishDestroy service, confirming that defensive feeds have identified it as malicious.

VirusTotal reports that 14 of 91 security vendors flag the domain, providing additional independent corroboration of its malicious nature. The domain remains active as of the report date, July 27, 2026, and no evidence of takedown or remediation has been observed. Defenders should immediately add govsinfo.org to URL filtering, DNS sinkhole, and endpoint protection rules.

Network traffic to the associated name servers should be monitored for anomalous resolution patterns, and any user‑initiated connections to the domain should be blocked or quarantined. Because the underlying hosting infrastructure and IP address details are not disclosed, further investigation of the hosting provider and geolocation may be warranted to enrich attribution. Continuous re‑scanning with multi‑vendor services is advised to capture any changes in detection status, and security teams should verify that existing phishing‑specific blocklists include this domain to reduce exposure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      26b3d56132d2262fc4dc1f77f15a81aa4a332e1ec3d2cf12ff86e328b7a839c0

## 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.
