## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      54.160.196.228 (US, Ashburn)
ASN:             ASAS14618 AMAZON-AES, US

Page title:      Facebook - log in or sign up
HTTP response:   502

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     none
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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:    2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2025-11-08 12:20:37 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-16 00:20:45 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-05-12 02:52:38 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-07 21:53:39 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This site, helloworlds.digital, presented a Facebook login page designed to steal user credentials through social media phishing, specifically impersonating the Facebook brand. The threat involves credential harvesting, where unsuspecting users entering their login details would have them captured by the attacker.

Technical evidence confirms the malicious nature. VirusTotal flagged the domain with 14 detections out of 95 security vendors. Google Safe Browsing marked it as flagged for SOCIAL_ENGINEERING. The domain was registered through AMAZON (ASN 14618) and hosted on IP 54.160.196.228 in the US, also belonging to Amazon.com, Inc. It lacked SSL encryption. Blocklists reported 2 entries, and the GridinSoft trust rating was 0 out of 100. The domain had a DOM risk score of 25.

As of the report, the site is down or offline. The risk level is high due to confirmed phishing activity, but immediate threat is mitigated by its offline status.

## 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.
