## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 69/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      22/92 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Emsisoft, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, LevelBlue, Lionic, Mimecast, Netcraft, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      172.66.0.96 (CA, Toronto)
ASN:             AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Hosting org:     Cloudflare, Inc.
Registrar:       Gransy, s.r.o.
Nameservers:     ["ns.gransy.com", "ns2.gransy.com", "ns3.gransy.com", "ns4.gransy.com", "ns5.gransy.com"]
Registered:      2026-05-11

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     none
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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: 2026-05-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-05-11 03:30:06 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:52:21 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-20 16:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-05-14 06:08:08 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 17:01:00 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy assesses meta-id1768.invoice-ads-manager.com as elevated risk due to its classification as a generic phishing threat. This domain was designed to deceive users into divulging sensitive information, likely through fake login pages or credential harvesting forms. Its association with phishing campaigns makes it a significant concern for anyone who might encounter it in emails or online advertisements.

Technical analysis reveals several red flags. The domain was created on May 11, 2026, which is relatively recent, and it resolves to IP address 172.66.0.96. It was registered through Gransy, s.r.o., a registrar sometimes used for malicious purposes. VirusTotal detection shows 22 out of 95 security vendors flagging this domain as malicious, indicating widespread recognition of its threat. Additionally, it appears on one security blocklist and has no SSL certificate, further undermining its legitimacy. These factors collectively point to a high likelihood of phishing intent.

To stay safe, users should never click on links from unsolicited messages or emails claiming to be from invoice or ad management services. Always verify the sender's address and hover over links to inspect the actual URL before clicking. PhishDestroy recommends checking any suspicious domain against its database and using browser security extensions that block known phishing sites. If you have already entered credentials on such a site, change your passwords immediately and enable two-factor authentication on all accounts.

## 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.
