## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-06-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-08 10:10:26 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Earliest abuse rec: 2026-06-08 06:01:01 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name
Last verified:     2026-06-25 16:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-10 06:51:25 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means
the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered
by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution
research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:39:20 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain poses a threat as it impersonates a Crypto Casino, specifically targeting users with a fake Elon Musk endorsement, which can lead to financial loss. PhishDestroy identifies that havowex.com was flagged by 15 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, and it appears on 1 security blocklist, indicating a potential risk, the domain was registered through Metaregistrar BV. 

 The domain resolves to IP 188.114.97.3 and has been taken offline, but users who visited the site should be cautious and monitor their accounts for any suspicious activity, as the site was likely used for crypto drainers or other malicious activities. 

 If you visited havowex.com, it is recommended to verify the legitimacy of the site on PhishDestroy and take necessary precautions to protect your personal and financial information, such as changing passwords and enabling two-factor authentication, to avoid potential financial loss due to crypto drainers or other malicious activities.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------

Favicon MD5:       936386e361020ac6bcebbcc772491fbb

## 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.
