## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-24 00:55:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies melox.pro as a low-risk phishing domain designed to deceive users by impersonating an online blockchain casino. Though currently offline, it poses potential danger by tricking visitors into revealing sensitive information.

This phishing scheme works by mimicking a legitimate casino platform called MELOX, enticing users to engage with the site and possibly submit personal or financial data. The domain was flagged on one security blocklist and shows minimal detection by security vendors, which may allow it to bypass some filters.

If you have visited melox.pro, it is advisable to not enter any credentials or personal details and to monitor your accounts closely for unusual activity. Running a security scan and changing passwords linked to any shared information can help mitigate potential risks. Always verify online casino platforms through trusted sources before participating.

## EVIDENCE HASHES

Favicon MD5:       eb8fd9fcf1d4e255d5d1eda565ee1e82

## 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.
