## 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: 2026-05-02 19:36:34 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies lunarmex.com as an active brand impersonation phishing domain targeting MEXC cryptocurrency exchange users.

This domain was flagged by 1 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, registered through Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com on April 28, 2026, and resolves to IP 172.67.140.212 with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. The domain exhibits elevated risk due to its malicious intent to deceive users into disclosing login credentials or transferring digital assets to attacker-controlled wallets.

Security analysis reveals low trust scores across multiple threat intelligence platforms. The domain remains active and poses immediate risk to unsuspecting users. Users should avoid interacting with this domain, verify MEXC official endpoints through confirmed channels, and report any suspected phishing incidents to MEXC security teams and relevant cybersecurity authorities. Implementing network-level blocking via IP and domain reputation services is strongly recommended to prevent further exposure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260502-83B57B
Favicon MD5:       d8974a8bbb2f33885c5817e66c24e72b
TLS cert SHA-256:      447c82271bc137c964914a0be6d1ce6116f218c2b6e6844b49d1d652785ffceb

## 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.
