## 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: 2026-07-01 06:46:12 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain hasslebet.com is currently active and has been identified as a high-risk credential theft phishing site. The domain title 'HassleBet - Bet on the best' suggests a possible impersonation of a legitimate betting or gambling service, which is a common tactic in phishing attacks to lure unsuspecting users into divulging sensitive information.

Technical indicators show that the domain has been flagged by 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal. The domain is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and resolves to the IP address 136.243.109.123. The domain was created on June 27, 2026. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, which is a free and automated certificate authority. The domain's status in the Google Safe Browsing (GSB) database is not specified, but this does not necessarily indicate safety as many phishing domains may not be immediately detected by all services. No specific blocklist counts are available, but the low VirusTotal score suggests limited detection by security solutions.

The current status of hasslebet.com is active, indicating that the threat remains operational and poses a significant risk to potential victims. Immediate response actions include blocking the domain at the network level, educating users about the risks of credential theft, and enhancing monitoring for any related malicious activity. Despite the limited detection by security vendors, the risk remains high due to the nature of credential theft and the potential for significant damage if sensitive information is compromised. Organizations and individuals should remain vigilant and implement multi-factor authentication to mitigate the impact of such attacks.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       9f04eb4ee2a0c2a5b2ea3e5c055e25a1
TLS cert SHA-256:      490ce3f4be65c8bd4aa7183764bea1e4b742861703d3990458ca0676d0430954

## 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.
