## 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

First reported:    2026-06-15 06:43:34 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-17 20:27:05 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-17 00:43:21 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-13 12:55:14 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies meriafr.zohosites.com as a domain associated with generic_phishing, leveraging the Zoho brand, and no specific drainer kit has been identified. 
   
This domain was flagged with a threat type of generic_phishing, and technical indicators include a VirusTotal score of 0/95, an unknown registrar, unspecified IP address, and an unspecified creation date, with a GSB status and blocklist count not provided. 
   
The current status of meriafr.zohosites.com is active and under investigation, posing a remaining risk, prompting response actions such as monitoring and reporting, to mitigate potential harm, and users are advised to exercise caution when interacting with this domain, guided by the unique seed a2fd0a, to ensure safety and security.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - WHOIS creation date: 2026-06-08
  - Public blocklists: now listed on 1 feed

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      c83a842dd8f03a9ca78fcc319d1fea5012eeee11e9cb71394b080689628efa01

## 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.
