================================================================

Fetched:   2026-06-28 22:12:26 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/micro-metamask.wixstudio.com/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 79/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Targeted brand: MetaMask

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      6/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       GoDaddy.com, LLC
Nameservers:     ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"]
Registered:      2026-06-08
Page title:      MetaMask - Secure Crypto Wallet

## 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: 2026-06-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-09 05:31:18 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-28 20:20:36 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-09 06:27:53 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-26 01:18:47 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, micro-metamask.wixstudio.com, is identified as a brand impersonation threat targeting MetaMask, a widely used cryptocurrency wallet service. Analysis indicates the domain was designed to deceive users into believing they are interacting with the legitimate MetaMask platform, potentially facilitating unauthorized access to wallet credentials or the deployment of crypto-draining malware. The page title, 'MetaMask - Secure Crypto Wallet,' reinforces the deception by mimicking the official branding, increasing the likelihood of user engagement under false pretenses.

Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 08, 2026, through GoDaddy.com, LLC, a common registrar for both legitimate and malicious domains. Detection metrics show 6 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain as malicious, while it appears on five distinct security blocklists, including those maintained by MetaMask and other specialized threat intelligence providers. The domain leveraged technologies such as Wix, React, Google Cloud, and Let's Encrypt SSL certificates, which are frequently employed in legitimate services but also exploited to lend credibility to fraudulent operations.

Users who visited micro-metamask.wixstudio.com should immediately cease all interaction with the domain and any associated links. If credentials were entered, affected individuals must transfer assets to a new, secure wallet and revoke access to any connected applications. System scans using updated security tools are recommended to detect potential malware infections. Additionally, users should monitor their cryptocurrency transactions for unauthorized activity and report the incident to relevant fraud reporting platforms for further investigation.

## 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.
