## 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

iostart-ledgeapps.wixstudio.com: Confirmed Phishing Site Blocked

Analysis of iostart-ledgeapps.wixstudio.com as of July 19, 2026, identifies the domain as an active phishing threat. The site is registered via Wix.com Ltd. and continues to resolve to IP address 34.144.206.118. The current infrastructure appears incomplete, with nameservers listed as NS_NOT_FOUND, suggesting possible irregularities in its configuration. PhishDestroy has listed the domain on its security blocklist, indicating confirmed detection and active blocking; however, no further blocklist inclusions are noted at this time, reflecting limited visibility across the broader threat intelligence community. VirusTotal reports scanning by 95 vendors with no detections, but absence of positive identification should not be treated as evidence of safety given the blocklist record. The specific content and purpose of the site remain unanalysed, and the exact nature of the phishing attempt is unknown at present. Security defenders should continue to monitor this domain for further developments and consider proactive blocking given its active status, confirmed blocklist inclusion, and unresolved infrastructure anomalies. Immediate response is recommended to mitigate any potential risks associated with this domain.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       f4feb61d53bc0de67557513853fa54f1
TLS cert SHA-256:      4d824d023de01f229e601938edcdb7020802d167c0d85fac21c644cf194c9450

## 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.
