## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

Last verified:     2026-04-23 13:07:16 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 01:47:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies insdie-exchange.com as a high-risk phishing domain that impersonates the Ethereum brand to deceive users. This site falsely advertises itself as a cryptocurrency exchange where users can buy and sell Bitcoin and Ethereum, aiming to trick visitors into trusting the platform. Such impersonation is dangerous because it can lead to theft of personal information, login credentials, and ultimately, users’ crypto funds.

The phishing technique used by insdie-exchange.com involves mimicking legitimate exchange sites with a convincing page title and design to lure victims. Despite its recent creation in February 2026, the domain quickly attracted suspicion, being flagged by multiple security vendors and appearing on blocklists. Users who interact with this site may be prompted to enter sensitive data or perform transactions that result in financial loss, as the platform is not legitimate.

If you have visited insdie-exchange.com, it is critical to avoid entering any personal or financial information. Immediately change passwords on any accounts that may share credentials with this site, especially cryptocurrency wallets. Monitor your accounts for unauthorized activity and consider using trusted security tools to scan your devices. Always verify URLs carefully and use official platforms for cryptocurrency transactions to stay safe.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       710033fd67ad66852aa15a831e8bad53
TLS cert SHA-256:      106541a31c2c06da195c44de7129f2e08b8f909244b46e780c0ce1d4c9d0308e

## 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.
