## 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: 2026-04-28 02:46:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Domain growwealthy.biz has been confirmed as an active cryptocurrency investment scam site, designed to deceive users into depositing funds under false pretenses. This domain is currently operational and poses an elevated risk to potential victims. The threat involves impersonation of legitimate investment platforms to harvest credentials or cryptocurrency deposits.  

This domain was flagged by 2 of 95 VirusTotal vendors as hosting malicious content. It resolves to IP address 163.61.188.9 and was registered through Sav.com LLC on April 27, 2026. The domain utilizes a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, which may lend false credibility to its fraudulent activities. Despite recent creation, the low detection rate on VirusTotal suggests this scam may be actively evading blocklists.  

Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with growwealthy.biz or any associated links. If this domain or its content has been encountered, report it to your security team or relevant authorities immediately. Organizations should consider blocking this domain and IP address at the network perimeter to prevent further exposure. Always verify investment opportunities through official channels and remain vigilant against fraudulent financial schemes.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260427-9A7099
Favicon MD5:       b5f5f833864616c95b02fa4b0b063c67
TLS cert SHA-256:      1bb46a73cc58daa20b415c15236839e0aab942162d6ef4bdde3a34ecc1d029f5

## 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.
