## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 95/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker
URLQuery:        2 detections
Public blocklists: listed on 4 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      104.21.46.46 (US, San Francisco)
Hosting org:     AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-22 23:26:29 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain migration-ar-io.xyz is involved in a cryptocurrency phishing scam. Although it is currently offline, it has been flagged by 2 out of 91 vendors on VirusTotal, indicating malicious activity. This domain is also listed on four public blocklists, including PhishDestroy, MetaMask, ScamSniffer, and SEAL, which highlights its risk to users.

Registered with NameSilo, LLC and hosted on an IP managed by Cloudflare, Inc. in the US, migration-ar-io.xyz was created on June 12, 2026, and first detected by PhishDestroy on June 22, 2026. The domain's SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services. Despite its short lifespan, the domain has already garnered a platform risk score of 68 out of 100, suggesting a significant threat level.

Phishing domains like migration-ar-io.xyz often exploit the gap between domain registration and antivirus database updates, which can take 24-72 hours. This domain's early detection and inclusion in multiple blocklists underscore the importance of proactive threat intelligence in identifying and mitigating risks before they propagate widely. The swift response from PhishDestroy and other security entities has helped to neutralize this threat before it could cause extensive harm.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260622-346A7A
Favicon MD5:       ba77a0c461c32e5c17e67c0cf8f09a9f
TLS cert SHA-256:      5fac0e89fc3b59db01825a403022d931549f444a6ad18a349bde29d6dfab365a

## 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.
