## 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: 2026-03-24 00:23:53 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has detected the domain optionsxpress-1106837.vip involved in a generic phishing campaign aimed at deceiving users by mimicking the brand "Options Xpress." Although the risk level is assessed as low, such phishing attempts are designed to steal sensitive information and can lead to compromised accounts or unauthorized access.

The domain was registered on January 20, 2025, through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. It has been listed on three security blocklists and flagged by 2 out of 95 security engines on VirusTotal. The domain currently resolves to IP address 34.94.84.231 but is now offline, indicating it may have been taken down or suspended due to its malicious activity.

Users are advised to avoid visiting optionsxpress-1106837.vip or entering any personal data on the site. Always verify URLs carefully and use official platforms when accessing financial services. Report any suspicious sites to your security teams or through platforms like PhishDestroy to help protect others from phishing risks.

Favicon SHA-256:       ab40a58972be2ceab32e7e35dab3131b959aae63835d7bda1a79ae51f9a73c17

## 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.
