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

Fetched:   2026-07-23 20:41:23 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/moonwell.run/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 90/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/93 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet
Public blocklists: listed on 4 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      104.21.22.197 (US, San Francisco)
ASN:             ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US
Hosting org:     AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Registered:      2026-02-21
Page title:      Just a moment...

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     WE1
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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-02-26 23:19:49 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-02-26 23:19:49 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-23 20:21:14 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-04-21 22:04:14 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

moonwell.run: Confirmed Phishing Site

Analysis of moonwell.run, created on February 21, 2026, shows that the domain is presently taken offline but retains a set of technical indicators consistent with malicious phishing infrastructure. The site resolves to the IP address 104.21.22.197, which belongs to Cloudflare, Inc. (AS13335) and is geolocated in the United States. The SSL certificate presented for the host is identified only as "WE1," offering no additional validation of legitimacy. A cursory HTTP request returned the page title "Just a moment...," a generic placeholder often used by malicious operators to delay analysis or to mask the underlying content.

No further page content has been captured because the service is offline. VirusTotal records indicate that two of ninety‑three scanning engines have flagged the domain, providing independent vendor corroboration of suspicious behavior. Independent security aggregators have assigned a Gridinsoft trust score of 0 out of 100, reflecting an extreme lack of confidence in the domain’s safety. The domain appears on four distinct security blocklists and has been explicitly listed by the phishing‑focused blocklists PhishDestroy, Polkadot, Enkrypt, and Codeesura, reinforcing the consensus that the site is engaged in phishing activity.

Given the combination of a low trust score, multiple blocklist listings, and vendor detections, defenders should treat any traffic to moonwell.run as hostile. Recommended mitigation steps include adding the domain to local deny lists, enforcing network‑level blocks at the firewall or DNS resolver, and monitoring for any residual references in email or web logs. Because the site is currently offline, dynamic analysis cannot be performed; however, the existing static indicators are sufficient to justify continued observation and proactive defensive controls until the domain is fully retired from any threat‑intel feeds.

## 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 (operator 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.
