## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 50/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      5/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     Google Trust Services / WE1
Expires:    2026-08-11
Status:     INVALID chain
Fingerprint: ab6fe64242925c2a3e0b8bb8b036bd28e3b600988e638eea0036126abe33e42c
Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator):
  - kipay.cc

## 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: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-12 22:30:45 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-27 16:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 00:14:57 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-22 23:06:59 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain mass.kipay.cc is a phishing site that has been flagged by 5 out of 91 vendors on VirusTotal. Although currently offline, this domain was actively targeting users' financial data. The site was registered through Dominet (HK) Limited and hosted on the IP address 172.67.184.170. Its SSL certificate was issued by Google Trust Services / WE1.

Despite being taken down, mass.kipay.cc serves as a reminder of the tactics used by cybercriminals to exploit vulnerabilities. The domain's detection by multiple vendors underscores its malicious nature, although it managed to evade many others, highlighting the challenges in achieving comprehensive threat intelligence.

The presence of this domain on public blocklists, including PhishDestroy, indicates its recognition as a threat within the cybersecurity community. The fact that it was flagged by a minority of VirusTotal vendors suggests that it might have been a relatively fresh threat, exploiting the window before full detection by security systems.

This case emphasizes the importance of rapid detection and response in cybersecurity. Phishing domains like mass.kipay.cc exploit the gap between registration and widespread detection, making early identification crucial to minimizing potential harm. As the domain is now offline, it no longer poses an active threat, but it highlights the need for ongoing vigilance and robust security measures.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      ab6fe64242925c2a3e0b8bb8b036bd28e3b600988e638eea0036126abe33e42c

## 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.
