## 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 01:58:16 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies moonbirds.claims as a high-risk crypto drainer domain designed to illicitly drain cryptocurrency wallets. Such threats pose significant financial risks to users interacting with the domain, as they may unknowingly authorize malicious transactions or expose private keys. The presence of this domain in multiple threat intelligence sources underscores the ongoing attempts to exploit crypto users via deceptive online tactics.

The domain moonbirds.claims resolved to the IP address 104.21.51.130 and was registered through Cloudflare, Inc. It was detected in 28 AlienVault OTX pulses and appeared on two security blocklists. VirusTotal analysis flagged the domain by 11 out of 95 security vendors. Despite its active use in malicious campaigns, the domain is currently offline, reducing immediate risk but warranting continued vigilance.

Users are strongly advised to avoid visiting moonbirds.claims or interacting with any links related to it. Crypto wallet holders should verify transaction requests carefully and use trusted platforms for any crypto activities. Implementing strong security measures such as hardware wallets, multifactor authentication, and up-to-date security software can mitigate the risks posed by similar crypto drainer threats. PhishDestroy encourages reporting suspicious domains to help protect the community.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       2e8deb28946a6b41ccb927eaa43bbaa78ea82cef39a40638f2e5afa8e90e73ca
TLS cert SHA-256:      489473c5fe49907c63e21f5658e010b754e1ec7f4184a9405b07c8622f690dac

## 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.
