## INFRASTRUCTURE

## 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: 2026-03-19 01:07:26 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy classifies monmonad.xyz as a high-risk threat due to its role as a crypto drainer. This domain was designed to siphon cryptocurrency assets under the guise of a legitimate service, indicated by its page title 'Monad Claim Portal.' Such threats pose significant financial risk to users interacting with it.

This domain was registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com on November 24, 2025, and is linked to the Angel Drainer kit—a known toolkit used for crypto wallet theft. It resolved to IP address 188.114.97.3 and appeared on three distinct security blocklists, confirming its malicious infrastructure. VirusTotal flagged it by 16 out of 95 security vendors, which underlines its recognized threat footprint within the cybersecurity community.

Mitigation efforts have been partially successful as the domain is currently offline, reducing immediate risk. PhishDestroy advises users to avoid any interactions with this domain or related URLs. Network administrators and endpoint defenses should continue to monitor for similar Angel Drainer variants and update threat intelligence feeds. The domain’s removal from active use demonstrates effective detection but sustained vigilance remains critical.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       78641fdae04cf4ba7188cfd035b093ea3e52cb1400a112bd8db08a48ad4e139e

## 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.
